I have more opportunities opening up for me in my day time job plus the launch of a site and many other little projects in the works...
...because of this, I am considering letting startname.com (also www.start.name) go. The offer would have to be VERY interesting ($ or PREMIUM .com name) and I am not prepared to "give a price". I have out a lot of time, money and effort into it. But it has paid off... the site is only about 2.5 months old and is already very popular.
Stats: ( I will prove to people who submit and offer - all offers will be subject to buyers revue of server stats)
January: 20,000+ pages, 2,000+ uniques,
Revenue:
January: $130+ revenue (which went right back into advertising and scripts) from affiliates and domain registrations. I have not even come close to fully monetizing the site. No 3rd party served advertising, no membership... nothing. My focus has been on development.
Alexa stats:
http://www.alexa.com/data/details/traffic_details?q=&url=startname.com
Tools include:
"Savable" Bulk Whois - www.startname.com/whois
"Savable" Bulk Linkpop - www.startname.com/linkpop
Domain Monitoring - www.startname.com/dm
Ready to Register Domain Names - www.startname.com/rtr
Become an enom reseller (instantly): www.startname.com/reseller
Register a name for $8.27: www.startname.com/domains
Scripts for your site - www.startname.com/scripts
Many, Many useful links: www.start.name or www.startname.com
Admin section (controls search limits etc.)
... plus a couple of other not finished sections.
The following names have been purchased to further brand certain sections/tools in the site and can be included if you state in your offer:
BULK.NAME (whois and linkpop)
TRANSFER.NAME (very cheap transfers)
SELLING.NAME (domain showcase)
BUYING.NAME (domain showcase)
FEATURED.NAME (premium names)
DISCUSS.NAME (chat and forum)
NOTIFY.NAME (domain monitor)
SERVED.NAME (hosting)
The homepage has some other cool features too...
- Users can customize and have their selections remembered. (1) The search box can be radio buttons (default) or dropdown, (2) Whois search box in right bar can be changed to display linkpop box instead, (3) the color scheme can be customized be selecting a new template (which the admin can create - I only have 2 right now :-( ). Most of these preference options are located at the bottom right hand area of the page.
- Most of the page is automated... including domains dropping today/tomorrow section.
Please PM me your SERIOUS offers or email me at admin@startname.com. I will probably end up keeping this site, I love it! But who knows... All offers will be considered. Only ones of interest will be replied to (time has become an issue :-( ).
Thanks,
