Open to selling http://quickpages.co since I haven't had much time lately. Free landing page generator with a lot of potential, launched late last year and currently has 900 users, with about 10 new signups per day on average. Does not earn anything yet because it is a free service, but for a few more features it would be possible to charge for it. It is made using Laravel.

What would you be looking to get for it?

Selling my banner ad network cpmly.com which makes $4,000 in revenue per month and has over 350 users. It gets about 3 mio ad impressions per day/ 90 mio per month. The fixed costs are like $80 per month only for the server. Send me an email for more information: mail@cpmly.com

You started this in January if I'm not mistaken, right?

Yes correct, I have to sell it because of another bigger project.

If you are selling it, why are you sending out spam e-mails asking people to join?

I got an e-mail from forwardingservice@mail.whoisprivacyservice.org

If you are sending these advertisements - which i don't mind if you actually have something good to offer - then you should really not try to hide who you are.

I also doubt that any quality sites will join random ad-networks. That's just the hard reality of the current market.

I am already using Adsense, and I often have problems with fraudulent, and just general shitty ads showing up on my site. If Google Adsense has problems keeping out the junk, even in light of their strict rules and ways to report ads, then surely it will be near impossible for a small startup network to stay clean, and only accept quality publishers.

It actually makes me quite angry when people like you, jump into a project, without first doing what's necessary to at least provide the same quality as existing industry leaders.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

imgfave uses shady pop-unders? first and last time visited. surprised that's a YC co

Yeah popunders suck, but doing what I can to cover costs right now. Have a lot of users that would much rather that than imgfave being shut down. That said, plan to remove those as soon as I find a better ad network.

Given that is the case, the business is worth close to $0
