I plan to take the highest bid by 5PM CST TODAY!!!
High offer so far: $5200
RapForums.com Sale.
Iâve decided to sell RapForums.com. The main reason I am selling it, is that I had moved it to my secondary server a month ago and never moved it back to my primary one, and then this past Thursday evening the hard drive failed (my secondary server does not have a raid setup, only primary does) and I lost a lot of data. The most recent backup I had was from July 3rd.
Needless to say, I lost several hundred new member signups, tournaments that were going, and over 15,000 posts. I donât have the time to rebuild the site, because I have many other sites I am working on.
This is a great deal for someone looking for a site to focus on, because the potential is DEFINITELY there.
The website ranks excellent for the term âRap forumsâ which is obviously the most used term for a forum like this. The site was #1 for all SE's for the term rap forums, but I just checked and now it is #2 in google, which is probally because the site was down thursday night thru last night. The site comes with everything you see there. I moved the site to my other server and loaded my backup late last night, and there was about 250 posts that were made, so there is still traffic.
Before the crash, the site was getting over 1,000 posts a day, and over 20 new members a day. Additionally, there were 2 tournaments that were going on that were extremely popular.
Anyways, I have screenshots of Julyâs statistics, only because I never reboot my laptop nor desktop, and found out that I had the awstats statistics already open in one of my tabs on my laptop, so luckily I can show how it was before hand.
This is one of the BEST domains in this genre, so the domain alone is worth a lot.
The currently loaded site has over 50,000 posts and over 3,000 members.
I just want to sell this, so starting bid is $6,000 BIN is set at a pretty fair $8,000
I will also provide the new owner with the contact information of the person that I had managing the site. I paid him a monthly fee, which was very fair.
