Video Mirchi - Bollywood music videos http://videomirchi.com Website and android application. It's the best way to listen to indian music videos without getting lost in youtube. Launched about 1.5 years ago and has been growing steadily since. It's fully automated and new songs get automatically added so I don't have to spend a lot of time on it. I do keep updating the app every now and then.

Cool! I just spent a good 20 minutes playing through some of the playlists. Some really catchy music on there, and the production on some of the videos is amazing. Nice job!

I have a bunch of projects I built up which I consider "done" as far as I'm concerned, but at the same time they're basically free to run (AppEngine in the free tier) so I'm always reluctant to sell... I do wish there were people who wanted to take one of these and build them out to the "next level". - http://www.tweepsect.com/ - Gets 300,000~600,000 pageviews per month (about 1/6 uniques), makes a couple hundred buc…

In the graphic on the home page: It erks me that different words 'stalkers' and 'stalking' are used to refer to the two parts of the graph, when there is no distinction between them. Confused me that's all :)

Sites By Hand https://sitesbyhand.com/

$150k rev last 12 months Full project management platform to manage clients & contractors (developers, designers, erc.) with auto-quoting proposals, signing and paying online, and tracking and monitoring the progress of your site as it's being built -> 80% done with the platform & built in Rails.

Was doing this while at Stanford, but school is overwhelming and I can't keep working on it. Really promising opportunity to build the first scalable custom web service company.

Rights to existing clients, brand, full code repository with $100k worth of development hours, portfolio, multiple domains, trademark, and tons of infrastructure to execute rapidly on projects.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

I would love to have it and move forward to see how far I can improve it and monetize it. I also started working on a dynamic blogging platform using python last week( https://github.com/scottydelta/miniblog)and could use ideas from your project to improve it. Let me know what you think about it. Cheers :)

Email me, you can find my email in my profile. A few people have expressed interest so I'd like to find a way to get as many people involved as possible.

You could try https://flippa.com/ I don't know how big of a cut they take but they have a bidding process, you could also open it to the public.

http://www.learnpython.org + the rest of my tutorials I generate quite a lot of revenue for them from ads (about 500,000 hits per month), but they have so much potential and I don't have time to invest.

Could you please email me basic revenue and traffic stats. My email address is in my profile.

The Big Eat http://www.thebigeat.com Menu and takeaway listings (mainly in the UK). Makes around $6,000 per year of Adsense. It's been fairly untouched since I started it in 2006. Has good pagerank for a lot of takeaway names. Costs are a Digital Ocean Droplet @ $5 a month = $60 per year.

I worked on this concept for a school project [1] for the US market and I like the simplicity a lot. Are businesses pretty responsive in claiming their takeaways?
