Where to sell my website?

22 replies
Hi Warriors,

I have created my website based upon several Unix topics. It is coming on Google page#1. I am getting about 150 users each day.

I want to ask you guys is there any possibility anybody will purchase such website? If so where?

thx
Pras

    Hey Coredesign,
    As someone who has sold multiple websites (and bought a few), I would have to say Flippa.com is the best one. It has been around for years, only accepts serious websites, and almost all buyers and sellers are very nice and helpful. You can also check buyers feedback and accept many secure payment methods so you don't get scammed. There are alternatives, but when I tried eBay I did not get any quality offers (there are a bunch of crappy websites sold and bad sellers on eBay, and no verification of your sites stats/revenue to give your buyers confidence.
    Good luck!
    Alex.

      Alex, my concern is not about selling websites but will people buy such websites (Unix related) as it might be out of niche?

    Flippa is the best place to sell your website in general. You will have to see if there is a demand for that type of site there, and if people are interested in it. The "Just Sold" section can give yo some indicators as well. The main thing that people will look at is the money that you are generating and the traffic. Best of luck.

    Have you considered posting it up on your Facebook page?

      It is possible because may be there were a lot of friends of your who are interested in buying a website. Don't know if @coredesign have got such friends in their list or not. If there are friends who are active in IM, facebook posting can help.

    If you speak spanish, the best one is forobeta.com but the users will buy it only if it has any income.

    is it the site in your signature?

    If so, How big of a result page are you using and for what keyword are you making your page 1 claim for? chomp in perl, rpm cheat cheet, vlm editor?

      Well, as this website is purely on technical topics. There are no such keywords you can say. My site is on page#1 for most of the titles you can see on website. Most popular keywords are rpm cheatsheet in linux, lvm interview questions, etc., I cannot share all but yes most of the tiles are on page #1.

    I don't think the issue is that it's a technical website. As long as someone has an interest in monetising it, then it will sell - however your problem may be visitor numbers. 150 is sort of of on the low side. Try flippa.com anyway.

    You can try eBay for your first time, compare your site with competitor site and see how much value you had and decide the price for you website. It is better if you know how to write copy ads to convince your buyer. some people gets a significant amount of money by creating and selling website in flippa.com, try it when eBay doesn't suit your preference.

    Please sell it right here on our forum. Flippa is full of no traffic page rank zero. Most of the sites make zero income. Most of the people here have pay pal and are interested in good web sites to generate revenue. Question, why don't you put a link in your sig?

    I like Flippa.com personally. Be open and up front with stats etc. Also, screenshots are good to show. There are some shysters on Flippa with thin sites and no data.
