I would like to announce the sales of one of my web properties – First Worlds Web Directory.
It’s a niche web directory that incorporates bidding system.
I design the directory myself, based on the original template by the script I use – PHP Link Bid. So, the design is pretty much unique.
The reason behind the sales is due to the much needed investment to boost my offline business through recession.
If you are interested, please visit my auction at SitePoint.com through this banner:
Thanks!

Pablo,
LOL – that’s because I work really hard in building the directory :) – It’s a strong one, you know…
Hi Noob
How’s this sale going? If the sitepoint graphic is accurate it means you are still waiting for a bid right?
Will you let us know when/if it’s sold? I would like to sell (flip) at least one of my sites but have never sold one. Any tips?
Cheers
Hi David,
It’s in real time, so yes, it’s pretty much accurate…
The site has just been sold on private offer – So I decided to end the listing :)
Tips on selling your sites – build your reputation.
If you involved in Sitepoint, have youself phone verified and have your site ownership also verified.
And also be honest – don’t put yourself in a position where buyer doubt your ingenuity and consider you a scammer – if your sites don’t make any money, just say so. If yours are abandoned, just say so.
And, oh, saying “I am selling my site because I don’t have time and want to pursue other projects” is lame, and too generic. Say something differently, like “I’m not able to bring this site to higher level – maybe you are the one who can!”
Hopefully this helps :) Good luck on selling your sites!
Hi Noob
Many thanks for sharing your info and the good tips. I am a member at sitepoint but to be honest, I don’t think I’ve posted yet lol
My sites make very little money at the moment, around $200 a month (total) so I think I’ll hold on to them just now til they earn more.
I more than agree, be honest and upfront. I wouldn’t do otherwise. :)
Thanks again
David,
I suggest you to start posting – it’s great to involve in a community, as you can learn useful tips and tricks on almost anything – Web design and development skills in Sitepoint.com case.
$200 a month is definitely not a small amount of money online, IMO. Excellent job!
Depending on the type of your site and the resources needed to run your site, it could very well worth anywhere between $1000 to $4000!
Cheers, David.
