WebmasterServe.com for Sale – Best offer secures the site
This is the quote from original thread located here.
“If you are looking to acquire a webmaster community, Webmaster Serve could be the right website for you. The site was launched in 2004 so the domain is aged over 20 years old. During the period I owned the site, it has seen a lot of ups (and downs) revenue wise. The ups come when I put time into it and naturally, when the site is ignored, activities and revenue goes down.
As any SEO/Webmaster knows, these days, fresh contents + social media is what gets you huge traffic, with a bit of that with where the website is at the moment, you could have a fantastic money making machine on your hands.
Revenue Potentials
Income from the site tends to fluctuate, depending on time invested in the site. When I had time for the site, the highest income I made a month was over $850, from selling sponsored post, sponsored link and banner advertisement. We also used to charge for product placement in the site newsletter when we used to send out newsletter.
I was never one for AdSense but new owner can also use this ubiquitous advert platform to generate additional revenue.

Why Sell the Website?
10 years is a long time, which is how long I have had the site, my passion for webmaster issues is not as strong as it once hence the site has been neglected for quite some time. I think a younger and more enthusiastic webmaster can get more out of the site with a little bit of TLC.
