Hey everyone. Well, it's time for me to hand in the towel. I am giving up my extreme sports site X-Core.
X-Core was originally going to be an extreme sport site, featuing bmx,skateboarding,motocross,and snowboarding. It took many months for us to get going on X-Core, but in the end we couldn't amount it to anything. Therfore, the site is now for sale. Below is a list of what you'll get when you buy it.

What you'll get
------------------------

The Designs:

4 designs -- one for each sport except bmx (cuz there isn't one)
All in psd format

Vbulletin:

Vbulletin 2.3.0 (legal) from an expired owned license (donated to x-core). You will get to put vbulletin 2.3.0 on your site, or use the vbulletin already setup if you buy the whole package.

The Hosting:

500mb
5 gigs transfer space
Cpanel (latest)
the best customer support
unlimited mysql db's
unlimited email addresses (requires you keep my email address)
phpmyadmin
99.9% uptime hosting

(from rochen.com)
Rochen was my favorite host ever..i'll really miss them)

The domain:

Someone already asked for the domain, but if someone can offer a higher price for the domain or package then they will get it.
www.x-core.net --with 6 months left before expiring.

76,000+ total hits
avg of 600 people (uniques) [b]monthly[b]
Has recieved between 7,000-9,000 people within the first 7 days of June.

How to pay
-------------------

Preferred (together as one):
Package price (includes everything) - $350.00 ($125.00 design, $100.00 hosting, $40.00 domain, $80.00 vb)

If buying serperate:
Domain [seperate] - current offer: $50.00 buyout: $75.00
Vbulletin [seperate] - $90.00
Designs [seperate, all 4] - $150.00

As you can see, if you are interested in everything it is better to buy the whole package. Prices for seperate parts are higher because i prefer the whole package bought as one.

Thanks.

go to www.x-core.net/designs and click through the different pictures..there is no preview of the indexes, but you will get the original index (as only jpg cuz we never got a psd) and a new idex we had redone which is much better.

the fairest way will be to offer the site to the first person that replied. That is how i will determine who gets the site.

if more then 1 person really wants it, then it will go auction style, and the best price will win.

Yeah - how/why does the domain receive 600 uniques/day when it wasn't an active site?
Asking cuz i might be interested in the domain. :)

i deleted all of site files today, as i knew i was going to sell it. The site has been up. I redirected the url to the forums for now, so it wouldn't lead to a blank page.

--Everyone--
If you are interested in the whole package please contact me asap. Thanks. (if more the one best offer gets it)

Asking because I am also interested. Why would you delete all the content simply because you are selling the site? De-evaluates the site, don't you think?

Is this content still available?

Thanks.

ok. today (very early in the morning) i decided x-core was done. i began deleting all the files and clearing everything. i then moved the forum to the front figuring i shouldn't shut it down but just run a community. then someone said i should sell it. it was too late, but this is really a great offer for only $350.00

please contact me if interested.

So where is the traffic coming from then?
Links?
Typein?
Category listings?

it is coming from search engine submissions, word of month, and people who has linked us. it is the 3rd or 4th result when you search alltheweb.com for "x-core" and it has been submited many times to search engines. i'll attach stats in another post since the link to awstats doesn't work without cpanel username and pass.

i made a mistake! it receives 600 uniques (roughly) in a month!. But when you think that the site never came to be anything great, NOT due to bad design but due to lack of staff support and ammount of time we put into it, then you'll reallize it has tons of potential. I'm selling it because I want it to turn into something great.

At the request of some of you I have downloaded the raw access log and uploaded it on x-core. it is in tar.gz format so it is proof that nothing has been changed. you'll need a unzipper to view it. here's the link.

*edit--looks like it views it from ie--makes it easier for everyone.*
