HostingSeek.com For Sale

I'm placing our web hosting directory HostingSeek.com up for sale. This site is already a known resource for finding hosting companies, and receives decent traffic daily. Average visitor count per day is currently 2000-2500 visitors giving good exposure. We have had a few advertisers on board, and many that have shown interest in the past.

The site is fully scripted (cost us quite a bit to get it scripted alone) in PHP and MYSQL backend.

Reason for sale: Other projects taking priority such as our new site (Chattist.com, and other projects in the making Ticketbill.com)

Everything is included (we can continue to host the site if you wish on our server OR you can get it transferred). To ensure smooth transfer process, it would remain running on our server until all files and databases have been shown to be fulling working on the new owner's end, then the transfer would be complete.

For reference, Alexa Ranking:

Also included: New Design and layout that was being worked on.

Pricing: Please make us an offer.

Please *email* me at webmaster@hostingseek.com with your offer or questions, please use *email only* to contact us.

Honestly, I guess it doesn't matter, it's up to the person to do what they want with it, but on the other hand I guess it would be good to continue building on it, but I have no authority once the purchase is made :)

Send me a private message as well, with as much detail as you can possibly provide. In addition, a price range would do wonders.

Thanks.

Hi,

Please send all inquiries to webmaster@hostingseek.com . I'll be able to handle things better that way, so please send email with your questions, and you'll get a response asap. It's easier to handle responses and track things that way for us than having to check back on the board.

Thanks to all those who have expressed interest in taking over this site. The highest bid was $5,000, but after reviewing carefully we declined the offer as in our estimation the money could be made back in a few months (based on current income). We received an offer from someone who would help us maintain and keep the site up to date, along with give a new layout, so we have decided to take that route instead of selling.

I truly appreciated the interest and feedback.

Thanks again.
