Entrecard.com Up For Sale, Starting Bid $100,000
Sep 25th
Have $100,000 lying around? That is the minimum bid to buy Entrecard.com. I just noticed the listing on Sitepoint. I’m not sure why Graham (the founder) is selling, but it will cause BUZZ in the blog-o-sphere for sure.
Why Is Graham Selling Entrecard? (read his own words below)
I am selling because I have come to a stalemate. Entrecard is growing fast, but I do not have the resources to put behind it. I recently met extensively with Venture Capitalists who were going to make a 700k seed investment and a 2-5m follow on Series A investment in 6 months. The deal fell through in the 11th hour, right before the terms sheet, because they lost faith in my ability to execute the plan after a series of tests in which I did not know I was being tested. The valuation we were discussing was 8 million. We were going to open a headquarters, hire 10 people, and go straight to the top. Then it fell apart, and after getting my hopes up, I just haven’t been able to get back on my feet. I’m a wreck and feeling like a failure to come so close only to drop it due to my idiocy.
Sitepoint Listing Snapshot
Around since November 2007, Entrecard is quite popular with many bloggers. It has lost some steam in the last few months, but it is still a formidable property.
It averages over 3 million page views monthly, no small feat. This will be an interesting sale for sure. You can go to the Sitepoint listing, subscribe to updates, and follow along. I’m as curious as you, to see what it will fetch.
PR2 Large Image Host Website For Sale
Sep 17th
My PR2 large image host site is up for sale at Sitepoint, to view the auction details go to the listing page.
The image host is a year old, received 1,800 page views last month, has page rank of 2, is monetized via Adsense and has a custom made header banner.
If you know how to market an image host, this is the perfect opportunity for you. I’ve already laid the foundation for you (backlinks, pagerank, traffic, nice design, indexed in Google, established domain) all that is needed is for you to promote it. I’m selling it as i have moved on to other projects and my time is limited.
Starting bid is $100.
UPDATE: The site did not reach its reserve, so i’m holding onto it for now. If you’re interested in the site, let me know. I’m sure we can work something out. Send me an email via my contact form.
