Sorry, I come off sounding as a cynic from the start. But I have liked the quality and content of Dan's previous posts, and this is not anything personal. With that said - Really? I could find you hundreds of others doing this same exact th

Is this exit really a significant milestone? If I'm not wrong, he sold the site for $3,500 which really is not alot. That plus considering the fact that he probably got out at the right time considering the venture was not profitable for th

This may have been a lucky break. Google keyword tool suggests that "how a car works" is 1) low competition 2) 135,000 global 3) 60,500 local. This is an amazing and rare find, most keywords like this are already well picked over by niche s

They have a few featured ones that have been translated into English. Either way I find this incredible, to think these ancient scrolls will be stored digitally forever into the future.

As a website broker, its always refreshing to see articles like this popup on hn. Selling instead of taking vc money isnt the sexiest option but its the right one for alot of companies and founders alike. Im on my mobile so I havnt had a ch

Seems like they weren't adequate at marketing.. The concept of the game is appealing but I have never heard about it until today, the people who have played it have nothing but praise haven't seen a negative comment yet.

Slightly less? What ad networks are you using at $10k that would be an eCPM of $3.33 which for non-mobile ads is pretty high for what the app is.

1% of revenue for any company earning in excess of $10k per month seems excessive. But I guess if those clients are also seeing substantial percentage increases in revenue it would warrant the 'data fee'. This is classic supply and demand o

From my short experience using cloudflare I believe they do. If a comprised computer tries to visit a site that has dns routing through cloudflare, they serve up a page that says their computer might be comprised and they have to enter a ca

I agree this is also one of the first things that I thought about as soon as I tried to visit the site. Handling reddit and hackernews front page traffic these days should not be that big for an issue for blogs. One reason this may occur wo

I own a sort of popular niche image hosting site (500k uniques per month) and while most image hosting sites do lose money as they get more popular there is still potential to make money in the area. Your right that it's never going to make

Are you serious? People don't eat real meat generally because they don't like the fact that they're killing a live animal do so. I quit eating meat 5-6 years ago for this reason, yet when I visit restaurants and my friends order meat I wish

Wow that's a bummer I would have loved to at least see how far that money stretched (ie. places visited).

Mturk is great for menial tasks in my experience. ie. Click here, look at this page, and write summary. Even then a portion of users dont follow the instructions properly. I cant imagine using mturk to seed a site with quality content that

Whats the point of this kickstarter? Theres nothing new here. Citrix, Vmware etc have been doing this for years now and thin clients already exist by the hundreds. The $50 price point is towards the lower end but the client featured also cu

Wonderful advice. These past few weeks I've been trying to write a few articles, but have yet to finish one concretely and I wonder if this has something to do with it. As I look back I go through a perpetual loop of research, and the fact

Unfortunately it seems like its become the "it" thing to close down web services. I don't understand why people don't opt to sell the sites instead? It might not make you rich, but hopefully you'll find the right buyer that will keep it ali

Completely agree - I'm on the same exact boat. I started html when I was around 14, I learned how to outsource quickly and I sort of regret that now because I stopped coding. The greatest thing about the web business for me is that age does
