[For Sale] My Free BBS

Hosemeyer · #1 09-21-2004, 09:51 PM

Hello,

Some of you may have seen a post by me from myfreebb, well I've yet to recieve an email back from them after sending them a long email nearly 4-5 days ago about why they can't do anything about what I'm doing.

I'd like to sell the site as I need the money for other websites, and I really have no time to keep this one.

Currently we host PHPBB and Invision board, I had a programmer working on some new features, but I haven't heard from him in a few weeks so I'm figuring he is gone.

What you get:
The Full Site - http://www.myfreebbs.com/
Domain Name
All Users ~100 Invision ~30 PHPBB
Sebflipper Multiforum license
All Rights to everything on the site.

Currently, I recieve atleast 2 new signups per day, usually more.

I haven't done any advertising lately (In a few months) as I haven't had the time. (other than a few forum posts)

The Site currently creates No income, because I have little time to find advertisers or to put google adsense back up. With adsense it was making enough and more to cover hosting fees and such.

I'd like to start the bidding at $200, and it will go on from there.

Once this is sold, it is sold I will not take the site back, I will not give you your money back, If you don't want the site, sell it to some one else. The last time I sold this site for $700, a few weeks later the guy wanted his money back, which I mistakingly gave back. The lost many visitors through that time, and is still recovering.

If you have any questions, please email me at joseph.blossom@gmail.com

I'm not sure why he wanted his money back. He told me that he had bought another site, that was free hosting and also returned that/sold it aswell.

The Sebflipper script is only for invision board right?
May I ask you how you setup the PhpBB forum?
Also do you have statistics on total posts, users and bandwidth usage?

A phpbb version has been released recently aswell.

Hosemeyer · #8 09-22-2004, 01:07 PM

It currently uses about 2 gigabytes of bandwidth a month, and Sebflipper's scripts don't display a total for posts or members, but I'd assume quite a bit.

I got your email, thanks for answering my question. I have some more now that I am going to host it myself. I will keep my questions and my bid to the forum post as I am sure others are interested in them as well.

How many pageviews a day are you receiving right now?
How much space do you currently use?
You said in your email, it's on a reseller account. What type of server is it hosted on in terms of the specs? I Just need to know what I would need to be handle 130+ forums.

Once I know that, I will be happy to post a bid. Thanks.

Currently I'm using 77mb Diskspace, and about 330mb sql space.

I'm getting around 3000 page views per day.

I'm not sure exactly what kind of specs the server has, but it is atleast a 2.8ghz p4 with 512mb ram.

This is not the only site on my reseller, one of many.

There is no way you can continue to host it for a monthly fee? Just because I am worried about my own server not being able to host so many forums together.
