Adolf Hitler is remembered as Hitler, Joseph Stalin as Stalin, Vladimir Lenin as Lenin, and Saddam Hussein is already being remembered as Saddam. This name is in the news everywhere now, 48 million Google results, and besides being the name of an infamous deposed President of Iraq, it's also a reasonably common name around the world.
I haven't had as much time as I would have liked to work on it, and my day job is becoming increasingly more important than my internet hobbies. So, I'm passing the torch to anyone who understands its value and is willing to make something great out of the domain. After the trial and whatever debacle results, there will be documentaries and major motion picture deals being made about the leader. There's many possibilities.
The site currently gets the majority of its visitors from type-ins, although I've just recently (after 1 month of developing), climbed to the 1st page result for "saddam" in MSN and Altavista. I've done about a day of limited advertising.
It's earning ~5$/day from AdSense (35$ today), ~422 impressions/day, CTR is ~7.5%. Google PR is 4. I'll provide more comprehensive stats & revenue details upon request, screenshots included.
[Edit: prices removed, taking all offers]
I'll sell the entire site 'as is' or just the domain, and I'll gladly consider all offers. Any payment will be made through escrow, buyer pays fees. To get in touch with me, send me a private message or an email to [email protected] with 'Saddam' in the subject somewhere.
Disclosure: The domain may be listed for sale at other locations (sitepoint at present), and I'm still fielding private bids. I'll honor the BIN.
Thanks!
