https://mip.li is an interesting bookmarking site that I think a buddy of mine would sell. http://www.uptimebot.com - I bought the domain that has plenty of backlinks, etc.. re-branded it and have failed to actually launch it. http://www.backlink.org - Cool domain with an interesting business model idea/plan but no development done here yet.
I built it in 2011 with a friend going to law school, when the economy was particularly bad for law students. But we both have full-time jobs elsewhere and have no time for Firms.ly. We've had 3 paid customers.
We listed it on Flippa last week, with no reserve: https://flippa.com/3056958-web-app-with-simple-revenue-model
I maintain the site http://sideprojectors.com Would love to hear your comments & feedback on how things can be improved to help you sell your side projects. Personally, it's been quite rewarding to see people exchanging messages and actually buy & sell side projects.
Makes about $1k/month, have run some promos in the $1-4k territory. Would suit someone who is actually competent at marketing because my social numbers are appalling. Circa $60k.
I've always kicked around the idea of selling Tubalr, if anyone's interested shoot me an email(cjstewart88@gmail.com with an offer. - URL: http://www.tubalr.com - Age: 3 1/2 years - Cost to run: $9 - Registered Users: 28,009 - It's been wrote about on sites like mashable, techcrunch, fast company, the next web, etc. .. it's been on the front page of hackernews and reddit. Google for "tubalr" to read around the web. -…
http://arcticfox.com/ - A video and slide deck syncronisation tool. It is a HTML5 based player which separates the video from the presentation. A great tool for conferences and e-learning. Heres an example: http://app.arcticfoxtv.com/d/onbxr Its still the only tool to my knowledge that doesn't use flash and works on mobile.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Out of interest, how is briefmetrics doing? Its a good concept, and nice clean report structure
Thanks! The fundamental product I wanted to build is done, so it basically runs itself while I do business development and sales. Eventually I'll need to dive back into the code to add more features I have on the roadmap, but I work best when I "switch modes" for spans of several weeks at a time so it may be a while. :) The current revenue is about $250/mo. I've been trying to focus more on agencies with many clients…
I love projects like this, particularly because although the income seems modest, I frequently live in developing countries for long stretches, where $250/month trickling in pretty much pays for the necessities.
Greaterskies, http://greaterskies.com - sells posters of the sky, thousands of stars and all the planets as seen from a place and at a time. Selling PDF ($24) and printout. Seems to be getting popular as a wedding present, also for birthdays. Common lisp backend computing the posters, Python and Javascript for the rest. Very nice conversion rate, but I haven't found the time to work on improving the number of visits.
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…
You're the developer I want to be someday. I realize that may sound weird. I'm ok with it.
