Established urlvi.be URL Shortener with a twist

*SOLD* urlvi.be URL Shortener with a twist

Hi guys,

I have for sale the whole urlvi.be site, including domain (godaddy, expires 9/28/2009) all code, design, database and existing traffic.

It seems to get between 200 and 300 redirects a day. It isn't making any money at the moment as there's no ads etc, but there's obviously a lot of potential with a site like this. (think framing the site with ads, offering a helpful pre-direct-frame with info about the link, etc)

urlvi.be is unique amongst url shorteners because it shows statistics to the creator of the short link, ie how times the link has been used and how many of those are unique. It's also got a cool web 2.0 name lol (url vibe)

Any serious offer will be accepted. I am selling because I am trying to reduce my online obligations (both time and finance wise) minimize my hosting requirements and move to a more reliable host.

Offers?

Edit: See URLvi.be

What's your ballpark figure you want for this?

And what's renewal for .be?

 

[muzzi]

I've had one PM offer of $500 but haven't heard back from him yet. If you offered substantially less than this then it might still go through but I'd have to get in touch with this other guy first.

I can't find my invoice for the renewal of urlvi.be but .be domains are $17.49 new at GoDaddy so I'd suggest it was somewhere around there.

Edit: I know that PM offer sounds very dodgy, which is why I hate PM offers. Is it poor form to post the users name here?

 

[Hurley4540]

How much is substantially less?

 

[muzzi]

If you offered anything less than $350 then I'd have to wait and hear from the other guy. Everyone dollar above that amount makes me more likely to hurry the transaction through.

P.S - Just to confirm, I'm talking USD. I don't live in Belgium, it's just a funky domain

 

[muzzi]

Unfortunately no-one is getting back to me at the moment..

Providing we seal the deal before I hear back from the other guys, $250USD and it's all yours.

is the script custom? do you have rights to it? are you selling the rights to the script along with the site?

 

[muzzi]

Yes the script is 100% written by me, the rights to the script come with the site. Do what you want with the code

 

[muzzi]

Sold!
