The sale includes a Facebook page with 2.4 million likes, web hosting, and a domain. To maintain the business, daily postings of articles, videos, information about civil engineering, engineering news, and related content are essential. The current owner is selling the business because they are starting an offline venture and want to ensure the website does not become inactive and lose its ranking. Revenue is generated through AdSense, and there is potential to increase earnings by adding an online shop. The primary expense is the annual hosting fee. Marketing efforts have focused on sharing links via the Facebook page and implementing onsite SEO strategies. The new owner can enhance the business by dedicating more time, possibly integrating e-commerce, and expanding the available information on the website. The current owner was limited to dedicating about one hour daily to the site due to other commitments.
