Watching for sites to buy
For several months now I’ve been watching for a possible site to buy on the two most prominent site markets on the web, Sitepoint’s marketplace and on digital point. Sitepoint’s is a better designed site with special tools for an auction, rather than a simpler forum on digitalpoint.
I must admit, after looking for the listings for several months: most of the sites are crap, if not scam. But sometimes there are some gems and I follow these sales. I’ve even added my own bid 2 times (but never won). My budget is also limited. Perhaps too limited for most of the sites of at least medium quality. Well, time is an issue, too.
On of the good sites on sell now, is Neville’s PalmReport.com.
This site is from a good person and has some real business behind it, even though it is of a questionable subject (palm reading). There are some problems with running the site (it needs a palm reader), but otherwise - it’s good looking and brings him about $350/months of revenue.
The auction itself is here. The price now got to $1100 but there’s more than a week left. The BIN (Buy It Now) price is set to $4k.
Update: The auction ended with highest bid at $1200, which was below Neville’s undisclosed reserve price, so it wasn’t sold. It’ll be interesting to see what Neville will do with it.
I’ll be updating on this and other interesting sites on sale here.
