Selling your Website?

[KeithGreen]

Hi, if anyone has a website for sale I have a buyer who can give a very quick decision. He wants to buy several sites. The criteria are:

UK or European audience only
Site needs to be 2 months old or more
No page rank required
Any topic
Rich in content (as much as possible)
No duplicate content
Contact page or about us page with current company name and address (this will be removed when site is purchased) He can only buy so many sites per company.

Price payable up to £1,500 so if you have something that's a bit neglected or surplus to requirements please let me know. I'm happy to receive a PM and tell you more.

Keith

Sounds like a con to be honest...

 

[KeithGreen]

Moderator, can we have the above offensive posting removed please. This guy knows nothing about me and is just stirring up trouble.

 

[Super Simon]

How is that offensive? As a potential customer of your "buyer" I have every right to be objectionable.

Have to agree it does sound a little bit like a scam, not saying anything against you.

 

[KeithGreen]

Oh well. I guess cynics need not apply.

To the 2 people who have responded so far (by PM and email) I have replied and I thank you for your interest. I can reassure you that this is genuine.

Super Simon if you are a potential customer please PM me your details and I will respond.

Hello Keith.
My friend just has a website about disposable tableware for about 6 years. I have seen the site and think it is a good site. You can have a look at it on the page here http://www.biodegradabletableware.com.cn/products/Retail-Packaging.htm.
But I don't know if UK or European audience only. You can think about it yourself, just an advice for you. If it doesn't fit you, maybe you can also learn something from the site.

Thanks to those who've enquired so far. I have already got back to a couple of you. If anyone else is interested please get in touch via PM (or publicly if you prefer).

Kitson I'm afraid your friend's site doesn't fit the criteria but thank you for your interest.

Maybe if you were a little more specific. Otherwise people will be throwing all sorts of crappy sites your way.

 

[KeithGreen]

Crappy doesn't matter so long as it complies with the criteria I've mentioned. One or two of the sites sent so far have been a bit too sparsely populated to be of interest but please keep them coming.

Just because it sounds like a scam doesn't mean it is, he is willing to pay up to£1,500, but lets be honest, who would pay more than £10 for a neglected site?

Clue is in the detail "up to £1500" there are lots of reasons why someone would buy these sites/domains (for SEO/back links, affiliates, unique content, subscriber lists and so on). It's not as crazy as it appears if you think about it. Yes you'll get some junk, but cast the net wide enough and you are bound to stumble over someone with a gem of a domain/site who doesn't realise its true value, an old domain with lots of history etc. Alternatively, if you were wanting to scam a load of people buying sites with a trading history, ramping up ppc on them and not delivering any of the orders is again a wise choice. Used to be an old eBay scam along the same lines whereby people would buy (or steal) an account with good history, then list a vast amount of product (that didn't exist) in a short space of time (usually high value electrical goods). The scammer could easily churn £100k's orders in 3-4 weeks trading, and by the time buyers realised it was a scam and goods were never going to arrive the sellers were long gone.

 

[KeithGreen]

I've had about 6 enquiries via PM and have got back to those people. So far 2 are of interest and I hope to get an offer out by Friday.

The sites do not need to be e-commerce sites. In fact a couple of the e-commerce sites sent to me have been too sparse to be of interest.

Also, if I think the site is worth more than £1,500 I'll let you know. It won't be suitable for this particular buyer as he has a strict budget but I can advise on selling any business (web-based or not) and will always welcome a PM or contact - in confidence and with no obligation at all.
