Hi Nick,
Saw your site when it first launched and really loved the look and feel of it. Just curious about the numbers for the site - i.e. maintenance costs, monthly visitors, etc. How much would you value the site?
I'm sad to see that you're at the point of shutting it down but I hope it's provided you with a learning experience that drives you toward success.
- nicksergeant 15y agoHard to put a value on it. If you paid someone to build the site the way it is, you'd be well over $30k with wireframes, design, dev, market research, etc. We were around 100-200 uniques daily before we pulled the site a few weeks ago. Maintenance costs are about $250/mo - photos + basic linode server.
- gawker 15y agoThanks Nick! I definitely agree that there's a lot of potential with the site - especially since your maintenance costs are only for server and photos. Once the data is in there, it doesn't really have to change much either right?
- nicksergeant 15y agoNot necessarily, there's some manual work required for updating to the next year's vehicles...
