I wouldn't mind selling one of my side projects, Water Marquee - https://www.watermarquee.com . It lets users watermark their photos. I started it about 5 years ago when I was getting back into development. It brings in around $1,200/month, though that's been growing lately. A year ago it was more like $500/month. It's been going up in search result rankings, I assume because I've tried to be more active on the blog…

Line: Android/iOS game.

Has a big userbase on Android, but nearly as much on iOS. Made around 3k$/month for a couple of months a year ago, now it's close to nothing as I stopped developing it, don't really now why. The whole thing is made with LibGDX for Android, using the (now defunct) RoboVM for iOS.

http://trybtg.com/ Currently has about 100 DAU, high engagement (avg. 10 sessions per week per user). Users tend to stick around and the feedback is all positive.

The desktop software is the iteration that found fit with our users. You'd need Dota to try it, or you can watch the demo here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VD_plCQi6PE

I have a set of paid features ready to launch, but I don't have resulting revenue numbers yet of course.

Even after the paid feature release I don't believe I can give it a proper change without more resources, mainly man power.

Not that I necessarily need to sell it. If someone were interested enough to partner up and fill the gaps I haven't been able to address I would be back on it. Guess I should be looking for a HN post that matches projects with people looking to join a project.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Are you using Shopify? Drop shipping?

Custom Woocommerce implementation on Wordpress. Custom plugins for automating things such as shipping labels, packing slips, etc. Hosted on DigitalOcean. No drop shipping. We spend about 20 to 30 minutes per week packing and shipping inventory from our garage.

How do you generate relevant traffic out of interest?

Small ecommerce site selling fidget spinners. It's sold $4k worth of fidget spinners in the past 2 months. Hosting costs $10/mo Shipping & support take about 5 to 10 hours total per month. I started this with my 13 year old son over the summer as a way of teaching him how to launch a website, advertise it and sell products through the site. Now that school will be starting up again here soon, we will not have the tim…

Sounds like it would be worth a lot less when the fidget spinner fad dies out.
