Warrior Forum Sold

[Theo]

One of the oldest forums on the Internet has been sold.

I wonder what it sold for...

 

[Theo]

Probably a LOT. As in, $250k minimum.

I imagine that forum generates more than that in a year. Their Warrior Special Offers Forum is an expensive place to advertise your service or product and it always seems to be busy.

It sold for $3.2 million, according to TechCrunch:

That sounds about right. Thanks for the link!

Good for them. That is a nice payout.

It is an interesting forum. I hope the new owners don't ruin it.

It's also a forum our friend Patty tried to scam at.

Oh, it is a swamp. You have to go into it knowing how to protect yourself against every scam in the book.

But, there is a lot of value there too, if you know how to recognize it.

It's a bit of a reality check if you consider that they supposedly have 732,000 members. Spending $3.2 million for 732,000 members works out to a mere $4.37/member.

That's all rubbish. Warrior Forum sold in a WSO for $49.97, but if you rushed and were a member, it was 50% off.
