The anonymous college discussion forum was established in March 2012 as a platform for U.S. students to discuss sensitive topics. Initially launched at one school, the site has since expanded to over 250 schools, with thousands of active users from institutions such as Duke, Vanderbilt, and Berkeley. The forum operates predominantly with anonymous users and minimal maintenance requirements, supported by a reliable software framework. Current features include focused advertising plugins and social media sharing tools. The website's primary audience is U.S.-based college students, often involved in Greek life, which attracts significant advertising interest. These advertisements cover operational costs and contribute to substantial monthly profits with minimal effort.
The site garners considerable media attention and has been featured in numerous prominent publications, despite it not actively engaging in advertising campaigns. While the site's current configuration maintains privacy by not indexing posts on Google, simple adjustments could significantly enhance its online presence.
The owner plans to sell the site due to the impact it has had on personal relationships and a desire to focus more intently on law school and other interests. The sale will include the domain, social media accounts, and free business applications. Financial transactions will be facilitated through escrow or wire transfer, and the seller will support initial transfer procedures. The owner expresses pride in having assisted thousands of students in self-expression and hopes the new owner will uphold the site’s positive influence on college environments.
