imagehostme up for sale

Fresh from the baker’s oven, imagehostme.com has been put in the shop window.

I’ve decided to sell it ASAP rather than twiddle my thumbs waiting for it to gain traffic or pagerank or something that would make it more valuable. Sell, sell, sell - that’s the way it has to be if i want to earn some cash and invest more in BeerChief.

So imagehostme has gone up for sale on sitepoint - it costs $10 to list a site there, so if it DOESN’T sell, i’m gonna be be -$10

I’ve set a minimum bid of $30, a reserve of slightly more, and a BIN of $100. I’m hoping it’ll fetch $70+. It’s a long shot, but someone might fall in love with the design and hit the BIN at $100

As with everything i sell, it’ll all be reinvested back in to other stuff. I now have 15 more domain names that i need to buy. They’ll cost ~$90, but assuming i sell all 15 sites for an average of $50, it’s a $750 return, or $660 pure profit. That’s very do-able over 2/3 weeks.

If imagehostme.com sells for anywhere near the BIN i’ll probably continue with image host designs for my next 2/3 sites, then move on to other ‘webmaster tool’ related sites, then i’ll chuck in the odd custom wordpress theme or two. Either way, i’ll continue to work hard and churn out some sort of semi-respectable design/content.

Whilst the money is nice, the REAL value is of course in experience… buying/selling, design, content creation, databases, transferring files/folders, learning about scripts and needing to edit bits of php, meeting new people, gaining some extra links etc.. that’s all invaluable experience.
