  no, I can't because flippa wants money in order to even list the website. I am asking for $100 for this website, and if I give flippa $20 to list the website, plus another commission when the website is sold I'm left with scraps.
  
  Also, WF moderators modified my thread, otherwise members of this forum would have seen my website in this thread and probably offered to buy it through here.
  
  Thanks

I think everywhere is going to charge a commission. Just the name of the game if you want to make sure you get your money.. and they get their domain..

Thanks

sadly, yes. I already listed it on a few sites for free, but I doubt it's gonna sell on those sites if I'm not spending money out of pocket. Only crooks everywhere

Thanks

Let me ask you something: If the site's not making you any money, why would anyone else want to spend money to buy it?

I wouldn't say that everyone is a crook. If a business has built up value to create and run a domain marketplace, it seems quite reasonable that they charge to list a domain there. You see the equation here? Property that has traffic and value is able to charge others, and others will in fact pay. You're saying yourself that your own site doesn't have value.

Or am I totally missing something here?

they would want to buy it because it's built, and it looks nice, and it's clean (not spammed for backlinks), and it's targeted to good digital product. I think these are enough reasons.

Also, I didn't say that the website has no value, I only said it's not making me money and I also said it's not making me money because I targeted the wrong keywords (with medium to high competition), but probably that the WF moderators removed this bit when they checked my post (they actually removed a good part of the post, so...)

Last but not least, others would buy the website for the same reason that other people buy sites "without value" every day on flippa: because they're interested in them.

Is sedo free? I think it is - I'm trying to remember where I listed my site when I was trying to sell it.

I listed it on here too. I listed it on other forums as well just to get the word out there.

I did list it on Flippa and that's the only place I got interest. Mine wasn't making money either.

I need to dig and find out where I listed, cuz I know some were for free.

  don't stress about it!
  
  Yes, Sedo is free, and I actually listed it on sedo few hours ago, but... since Sedo, too, has a premium membership they will probably not gonna get buyers to my site for free, either.
  
  In 10 years of online marketing I noticed this trend of big companies to milk you for all they can before delivering any value at all. That's why I'm saying they're crooks. Everyone is looking for money god damn it. Nobody can give away value for free anymore. I don't like where society is heading...
  
  Thanks

  Could you please just transfer your domain to me for nothing, then?
