About the Business

A website dedicated to horror microfiction, founded in 2008, is now up for sale. Since its inception, it has grown significantly, receiving thousands of submissions annually and being archived by the Library of Congress for its role in internet folklore. The current owner, who is also the founder, is looking to sell due to time constraints and an inability to fully realize the site's potential. The website is run on WordPress with some paid plugins, and does not retain copyright of the stories, allowing authors to maintain their rights while giving permission to host their work. The site earns revenue through Google AdSense, Disqus, and affiliate relationships, and has a substantial user base, boasting around 350,000 unique visitors monthly with many returning users. The potential new owner would have access to email records and could renegotiate terms with authors if desired. The current hosting will need to be transitioned to a new server upon purchase. There is an opportunity for growth by optimizing advertising strategies, developing a community app, and enhancing user interaction. The site's primary competition is a Creepypasta wiki, but the website distinguishes itself as a curated archive, which provides a level of prestige lacking in its competitors. The seller is willing to provide post-sale support to ensure a smooth transition for the new owner, and is open to signing a non-compete agreement. The sale includes social media accounts and affiliated sites, although some subscriptions may need to be obtained separately by the new owner.

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.

5. Make the offer on Flippa. We’re here to help. Flippa does not charge buyers and by making an offer on Flippa you’ll get access to our post-sales support team.
