    Hey all,

    Im in the process of selling my website to a few third parties. My site is http://www.textsurprise.com. They are asking for what my bottom line is. Can you guys give me an idea of what the site might be worth?

    Im interested in selling the script, not the domain/site. The code is 100% unique.

    Thanks all :)

    i dont think it is the code they want no affence but i could code that site my self in a few days. it is the domain they will want as that is carring all the traffic.
    selling that website i would say £50-200 depend on how goog the coding is have you used class functions est.
    the domain well they can sell for alot if you have good traffic!
    from
    £50-50,000
    yes 50k the domain apple.co.uk apple offered the guy 50k for the domain but he said no lol he wants more.
    noramlly for a domain you are looking at £100-5000 all depend on the name and traffic and how much they want .

    hope that helps

    No offence, but you have no clue how to auto detect a cell phones carrier, or then proceed to send a text to a phone from ANY email address, not just a servername. Trust me, find a site that does exactly what this site does. I havnt found one.

    Not that often I see people like you, with 99% of bloggers I see basically being ignorant. I don't doubt your abilities. What kind of designer, web design?

    lol me too i hate it when i do something and some one comes on and say this and that when they dont have a clue what they are talking about lol
    yer a web designer i may be getting a few jobs in soon. i am looking at freelanceing or have a partership with a web desinger.
    Though i had a idea how to sell your site may be you should sell you code to exsisting websites that need something like that.
    or
    change it to some kind of mass text message sending code like a text newsletter i dunno lol

    As the first replier said, the buyers are looking for traffic and revenue stats, which comes with SEO/Page rank. Reason being, search engine ranking isn't something they can control (to an extent), so if you're site is already indexed well, they can cross one of the hardest and tedious tasks of starting a website off.

    I'm not sure what you'd get for you SMS script, but there are a few other free online SMS services out there. I don't see how your one is different to theirs, but hey, I don't know much about your script.

    Good luck selling.

    Considering text messages are just compressed e-mails, I'd imagine it's all about simply changing the headers... which isn't difficult at all.

    There's just not really a need for it, ever. The only reason you may want to have the e-mail is for replies, but you could do that with any arbitrary e-mail.

    It's a nice script, and I would quote you a ROUGH $30 for the script. That's if you can find a buyer who doesn't have custom demands and such. Selling scripts isn't easy anymore with freelance sites.
