About the Business

For sale is a website featuring a prime generic .com domain. The current owners acquired the site primarily for its domain name, intending to launch a significant project. However, they have decided to sell the site because the project did not proceed. The focus has not been on generating revenue, and the site remains largely unchanged since acquisition. The previous owners also appear not to have optimized it for revenue, yet the website has still managed to earn approximately $1,200 through AdSense over the past year. The domain is one of the oldest on the internet and was used by an early startup search engine. Its generic yet memorable nature makes it an ideal investment for someone seeking a reliable asset or looking to initiate a new online venture. In terms of additional revenue opportunities, the site earns from top and bottom banner ads via AdSense, amounting to $1,200 in the past year. There is also an unmonitored middle square ad unit and Amazon affiliate links in the Books section, which could potentially increase revenue for a focused new owner. Regarding traffic, the website receives around 16,000 visitors per month, as reported by Google Analytics. Traffic data tracking began on September 29, 2010. Interested buyers are encouraged to explore these opportunities further as the auction proceeds.

Buying Advice

Flippa’s platform is free for buyers. Here are our tips for first-time buyers:


Before making an offer

1. Look for verified sellers. Sellers should verify their email, phone, and government ID. When a seller has completed all verifications, we identify them with a checkmark like this:

2. Review financials. Financials are seller-provided inputs. Always ask for verified financials. Ask for a tax return or request access to their dashboard. if it’s an ecommerce store get a transaction report.

3. Review traffic. Sellers can grant you access to Google Analytics. Ask for read-only access to verify site traffic.

4. Schedule a call. Communication is key. The best way to find out more is to speak directly with the seller. For your protection, keep all communication within Flippa.
