#182Heard of pegleg.it? Same idea, but the content is not crowd sourced.

#183A tool that helps non-profits get exposure and raise funds. Think Rally.org but for green projects (there is no crowdfunding platform for green projects). Site is complete and ready for launch: http://www.MakeTree.org . Integrated with Paypal so that it takes "pledges" from donors (ie: it only charges donors when a project reaches 100% funding). Built in Ruby On Rails. Another project of mine took off and haven't bee…

#184http://thebigeat.com Generates around $8k per year in Adsense and slowly rising. Plenty of potential to actually do something with it. I wouldn't even think of selling it for less than $60k as it's an asset returning 13% on that amount. People will say, "Yeah, but that's a ridiculous amount to ask." I agree, but where am I going to invest the proceeds that will return me that amount. This is a site that's consistentl…
However, keep in mind that for $60k, a person can get a site doing $30k-$60k per year with as much work. That should be encouraging to you because it means there is an equivalent place to invest the proceeds of the sale of your site even though it also means you won't get $60k for an $8k per year website.

#185Neekanee ( http://www.neekanee.com ) - it's a job search engine that scrapes jobs directly from company websites. Everything is written in Python/Django. Right now it scrapes jobs from around 1100 different companies and has features I had always wished were available in other job search engines: ability to filter by company size, type of company (.org, .gov, ...), vacation time, etc.
How long did it take you do build this?

#186You can read about the project in an interview I did here:

I've been taking offers since the site was closed down. Nothing has been serious. A lot want me to partner with them and re-boot the site, but I'm not interested in that. A few are affiliate marketeers that want to split revenue etc... I'd rather just pass on the project to someone else now.
I guess what you'd be buying would be the brand, the domain name and all of the design assets. There is no real 'tech' to sell because the system was a one-off bootstapped bespoke build that would need a major re-factor but all the source code is there sitting on the server for anyone to acquire.

#187Fun/silly website for Valentine's Day. Tells you who you love on Twitter. Gets about 500k pageviews/mth 100k visits/mth and spikes on Valentine's Day with coverage from the likes of Huffington Post and TNW.
50-70% of traffic is from Saudi Arabia, which is interesting.
Gets a tonne of tweets a day if you search for #twitamore https://twitter.com/search/realtime?q=%23twitamore&src=t...
I figure it would make a good marketing campaign for a company on Valentine's Day 2014 if they wanted to theme it.

#189http://www.skinnyo.com - great site, community, profitable, lots of room for expansion but I'm busy elsewhere and no longer have the interest in weightloss I once did.
