An online resource dedicated to graphic design, web design, and web development is up for sale. The site offers a range of free and premium graphic design resources, themes, and templates. Its revenue is generated from platforms such as an advertising service and two affiliate marketing networks; one of these can be transferred to the buyer, while the other two require new registrations. The site, using WordPress, has been inactive since March 2017, leading to decreased traffic and earnings. However, it presents growth opportunities through content updates and improved SEO.
The sale includes two domain names but no social media accounts or email lists. The current owners, not being the original proprietors, have not performed SEO in the past year. Traffic primarily comes from organic searches, with only a small percentage from paid searches. The site is hosted on a VPS with a hosting provider that currently supports multiple sites, necessitating a change post-purchase.
The business is being sold due to a lack of time for content updates. The owner is willing to verify revenue for serious buyers or through a marketplace platform. Only 1-2 hours per week are currently spent on site management for tasks such as bookkeeping and emails. To grow, the buyer could expand content, advertising, and SEO efforts. The reserve price remains undisclosed but is stated to be fair. No payment arrangements are accepted; full payment is required at auction completion.
