Sold my website for $5,600
Its been a long time since I posted anything. For most part, I was very sick the past week so I was just too lazy to update the blog. Since I recovered I am busy with a new porject I intend to complete by early september. I am working on a new website and if this goes as plan, the site can bring me up to $6,000 monthly. I am putting aside $1,000 for site promotion alone. I’ve also found a programmer/designer over at Scriptlance and they’re now working on the website. This is the first time I’m actually working with someone on a big scale project and invlove quite a sum of money.
Onto the main topic, I recenly sold a website of mine for $US5,600 over at Flippa. I put it up for auction and the starting bid was a measy $500. It just take one interested person to bid and the bids will start rolling in. That’s the thrill in running an acution, you will constantly be surprised. The changeover of the website went well, buyer happy, I am happy. I used Escrow to run the transaction so no one will be cheated. In all, the changeover took 1 week to be settle and for me to get paid. I’m using that money for my new project, hopefully this investment is worthwhile.
The only thing that’s bothering me right now is my National Service coming this october. I have to serve my country! I won’t have time to manage the site as I’m practically away from home on weekdays and only have the weekends to check on my online business. That’s the reason I sold my site, to lighten my burden. This kinda shit happens in life and you just can’t get away from it. Now I have to think of how to keep my online business running while I’m serving my country. Any suggestions?
