:( Closing my first major website

    Yes, I'm closing my first major website. :( http://www.freeminz.com/ so I can have time to pursue new projects. It's a hard thing to do after two years of activity.

    Well, this one wasn't that big of a money maker. Either way, I don't need the money. I have other websites making enough to just not need it. If someone else wants it I'll be willing to sell it to them, but I just don't realy care to keep it right now.

    Idk, if someone bought it and put up forums with ads, perhaps they would make some decent money off of it. I just realy don't care to do it myself.

    Yeah, that's my point... although I've never understood the "I don't need money" part, lol, I sure could never have enough $$ :D

    You may not of had any luck getting an income from the site, but maybe another webmaster sees potential, and you might as well get a few bucks for it. And since you don't need the money, I'll send you my papypal ID so you can forward it to me ;)

    I will definately beat SE's bid but I will require the following

    1.) Site is put back up
    2.) Closing date is set on Auction
    3.) Specify payments accepted (Paypal?)

    If you are definately not interested in selling it, please post that but why not make some pocket money. People are obviously eager to bid.

    I reckon you'll get about $200 for that site if you get it back up again. Why not use the money to advertise your new site if you dont need the money.

    PS I didn't just bid $200 lol
