Flippa experiment

Posted by David N. Welton Mon, 25 Jan 2010 09:33:00 GMT

I decided to try a little experiment with Flippa.com, a site where you can auction off domains or web sites.

I put http://www.innsbruck-apartments.com up for auction:


http://flippa.com/auctions/83341/Innsbruck-Austria-rental-listing-site---Ski-Season

We'll see how it goes and whether the site is worth using for other sites that I'd like to sell on.

It's a good test case, because it's a site I threw together years ago simply to aid our search for a new apartment in Innsbruck, and then requested by friends.

    Good luck with the sale. :-)

    Do you plan to blog about your experiences with flippa.com?

    Yes, I'll let people know how it goes. I thought it would be interesting to see if things work out with a relatively small site like that. So far flippa seems like a well done service, even if I'm not wild about the name.

    Hi David,

    I just found this post and checked out the auction. It was looking kind of lonely, so I put the first bid on for $30 (z4driver).

    Please remind me to update here if I win.
