I have started up a Linux-related website called Linux Myths (linuxmyths.com) with a friend last September but don't actually have enough time to fully develop it.

I'll be more than happy to transfer ownership of everything over there from the site design (non-exclusive) with all HTML files and the domain name itself for only $399.

Major credit cards or PayPal accepted.

Please feel free to contact me for any details. Thanks.

not to offense you or anything, i dont see any real content in there beside 1 page ( around 5 paragraphs onf headlines) so is this only for the domain name?

There are altogether 4 pages (Home, About Us, Hyperlinks and Archives). I must admit that there is not much content, especially with that empty archives, but I am basically selling the HTML site design along with the domain name (the latter of which is a decent catch though). You may expand the Related News link to include one or more pages or even modify the Send E-mail link to become a contact form or even discussion forum. There's no limit to your creativity; but this template is a good start.

Frankly, the HTML template is not particularly original or high-end, but is decent for non-exclusive use in small sites, and is worth more than the domain name itself.

Of course, there is also the idea of building a website that showcases other websites (or hosting companies) that use Linux in particular. Again, I'm not selling any rich content here; and therefore the price tag of $399.

No offense but you wont get anywhere in that price range for the site, theres no content, the domain is average and the design is non exclusive... what less could you ask for? :D

Well, thanks for your feedback. At least somebody like you care enough to reply, it's always better than having a "ghost" thread instead! ;)

Okay, if you like this design, I could make it exclusive. It has never been sold' it's just that I am also using it on another site of mine (http://ont.org).

And for those who are interested in this website, you are most welcome to make your best offer. Thanks.

For those who are new to hosting, Microsoft published the now famous (or infamous) Linux Myths article back in October 1999 (originally available at http://www.microsoft.com/ntserver/nts/news/msnw/LinuxMyths.asp; URL since defunct). It instantly drew criticism from the Linux community. You may search the Web for some archived version.

That is the reason behind the name Linux Myths and linuxmyths.com.
