Site for sale is FreeIBBoard.com with 1250 invision boards hosted. DMOZ listed & Multiple top 10 google:

#3 for free invision board hosting out of 1.59 million results
#7 for free invision board out of 1.2 million results
#9 for invision board out of 3 million results

Also:
#17 for free board hosting out of 7 million results

Much time has been spent on optimization and ad placement. The script has been updated extensively to cover up holes in the original code. Some new enhancements include:

- Board creations are now secure
- Upper case chars are now full converted to lower
- Removed all frames and added includes
- Site has header footer (siteheader.php / sitefooter.php)
- Layout changes to make everything look same (signup etc etc)
- Added meta tag support for users
- Allowed wrappers for users
- Central header / footer (in functions.php)
- Automated donate button (shows if it is not adfree already)
- New admanagement options
- Added admin upload functions
- Added upload script to my.freeibboard.com
- Added subdomain function aka freeibboard.com/forums/index.php?mforum=test
is also available via http://test.freeibboard.com
- Removed IP check (admin area) cause dynamic IPs cause too many issues.
- Added secure functions which are applied while the signup process runs
- Removed all unneeded functions to protect the board better
- and many many more things - too much to list already

Site has been running for approximately one year and has strong PR5.

Price: $2900

I would love to know the following:

Revenue
stats
what script is the site running
database size
monthly bandwidth
do you have any commitments to ads on the site?
do you advertise anywhere?
where is it hosted, and can it stay there? If so, what is the monthly cost?

As stated, I cannot tell exact revenue as on the forums one banner from many affiliates is run and they are basic ads.

Stats are shown in the post above yours.

The site is running a customized forum hosting script with the features shown (addded) in the first post.

No committments to any ads.

We only advertise on our own webmaster network - nav2.net

Hosted on our dedicated server at thePlanet. We have other domains on the box so cost could vary. You could run on a shared account or a dedicated box.

Bandwidth for June was 3 GB
Disk space needed is about 400 MB

Nice deal for a top position on a tough search term. If site had more members, would easily go for a few $k more.

Thanks

One question I forgot to add is about where the site is now. It will need to be moved off this server and I will help move it off the server to yours for no charge.

Hello,

the google ranking is nice (especially the one for invision board). I am very interested in this but I'm not really willing to spent more than 2500 as I just bought a few sites costing me a few xx.xxx. Any chance to "buy now" at 2500?

MBo:

The price is fixed at 2900. As you seem to realize the value of the keyword, I am sure you will agree the price is more than fair.

Thank you

Oh don't get me wrong I know the value - I run similar services and know how much free services can make. However, trying to get the price down a bit never hurts :)

Anyway since it's a fixed price and my budget for additional sites is max 2500 per site I have to give up. In case you don't find a buyer feel free to PM me (still trying lol)

Good luck with your sale, I'm sure it will sell fast especially cause it's forum hosting. All hosting stuff makes good money somehow...
