Wanna buy a porn site....Here's a deal
 
Hi,

Here's the basic details on the site and sale.

Thumbnail Post
www dot thumbnailpost dot com
Domain registered and site started Feb 18th 1998
Hosted at National Net on a dedicated server ($790/month)

Runs on TGP Brownie (no longer supported but works fine)

I'm selling the site because I have lost interest in maintaining it. I really should have listed it for
sale 5 years ago because thats when I stopped changing the advertising. The site have been
severely neglected but because of its age and previous state it still receives enough traffic to be
re-born.

I'm only looking for serious offers from a person or company that knows exactly what this site needs
to make a come back. Because the site is not updated regularly and the advertising has not been
changed in over 5 years it does not produce a great income. ($1000.00/month) I am willing to coach
or consult the new owner on exactly what is needed to see growth in numbers and revenue if interested.
It is one of the oldest established free adult sites on the internet and this is a large consideration in the
value of the site.

Please contact myself at [email protected]

Thanks,
Chad

My advice would be to put it on a cheaper server (there is no way you need that) and just let it run out, if you don't need fast cash. If you do, good luck. $1000 a month on that, after all these years, is not bad at all.

sandman! 07-23-2012 12:33 PM

around how much you looking to get for it ?

Tommydiv 07-23-2012 12:41 PM

TGP Brownie wow :) reminds good days

Completely agree. Your hosting fees are way way too high for your needs.

papill0n 07-23-2012 12:50 PM

thanks for listing me back in the day haha

cMarkus 07-23-2012 12:57 PM

so TGP Brownie isn't the shit anymore? Im sure the programmer was taken out in a
German fish market deal gone south.


haha papill0n, ya you fuckin rocked it!

gleem 07-23-2012 02:21 PM

old TGP's 6x month income max, some go for as cheap as 3. Good luck!

wehateporn 07-23-2012 02:28 PM

I happen to be using a laptop which has McAfee Site Advisor (nothing to do with me), when I try to go to your site it stops me with a big warning about how risky it is

adultdomainseller 07-23-2012 02:43 PM

convert it to tube, fuck it.

We had it while I worked at worldsex.com. Awesome script.

All of my own sites were running UCJ until the owner took off and left me with dead scripts.

adultdomainseller 07-23-2012 03:55 PM

pretty sure pinkworld still runs on brownie.

Pretty insane that, at the right place $100 would do a good enough job :2 cents:

I highly doubt what you are saying is true since he has never allowed any java script or other suspicious programming on Thumbnailpost and I go there everyday with antivirus on and have never seen anything slightly suspicious on the site.

cMarkus,

I am sad to here that you are letting the site go. I am still a consistent gallery submitter to thumbnail post and I am sure the submission terms will change drastically with the new ownership. In fact if I were to purchase the site I would change the submit policy too I have to say.

Thumbnailpost has been good to me for years so I wanted to wish you good luck with your sell.

.

It seems to be a common problem with TGP sites, even thehun has on and off again problems.

http://www.siteadvisor.com/sites/thumbnailpost.com

They show the offending site being linked to on siteadvisor.com (looks to be wannawatchdotcom)

VenusBlogger 07-23-2012 09:13 PM

Wow, I remember this site, I used to submit there pretty often and it had very nice traffic back in the day. Miss the old days, what a shame you have to sell and traffic went down.

Back in the day, you could sell a good TGP for the income of 10 months in a row. In this case it would be 10K.. but nowadays, maybe half of that.

However, the domain and the age of the site can add some value to it.

Good luck with the sell, dude. Are you still working in adult? Or switched over to mainstream like most of us?

Quoted for truth.

Did you get a decent processor and RAM with the $200 server?

Good find Shake, I certainly have no reason to lie, it was more of a heads-up to the owner :thumbsup

No, Nick changed it long time ago.

Ontopic: hey, a submitter of your here. Thank You for posting my galleries, I made several sales via ThumbnailPost in last 5-6 years.

I am interested in acquiring this legendary site and work on it. Please email me the details.

Thanks & Peace,

Matyko

Semi-Offtopic, but I contacted Zak a few months ago and he told me they have a very strict rule about IPs [3 or 5 per box].

Rebel D 07-24-2012 01:56 AM

right now, most hosts I ask, tell me the same...

And they offer me a lot of IPv6... (which are pretty useless right now)...

Thanks for all of the listing over the years my friend but that is *WAY* too much nowadays. :)

cMarkus 07-24-2012 10:26 AM

Ok with the hosting already.....

After the second comment Bill from National Net reviewed the site/contract and
emailed me to say he has adjusted the hosting to $199/month.

As usual I can't say enough about Nat Net and the crew working there, my own fault
for not requesting a review sooner.

I think the site advisor.com warning is from a virus that was hacked onto the site back
in 2005, chopped the traffic 50% in one week and after laying in a pool of my own urine
for an additional week after I moved onto other things.

Really is a poor idea for owners of sites

pornguy 07-24-2012 10:50 AM

Your hosting bill is a BUTT FUCK each month. I burn more than 4TB in bandwidth average a month and have 3 dedicated boxes for that price.

Roald 07-24-2012 11:16 AM

wow blast from the past!!!

Best of luck in the sale!

Who are you hosting with?

VenusBlogger 07-24-2012 12:44 PM

4TB is not that much... With a 100mbps you can transfer 800 GB per day. (and even a little more)...

Back in the day, with galleries it was pretty common. So transferring 4TB would only take 5 days.

There are 100mbps servers for 150 dollars per month.

PIRIOD.

That was nice of them :2 cents:

I sent you an email also. Let me know :thumbsup

ShoeBox 07-24-2012 12:48 PM

you could prob host your site on godaddy and hand me the $700

cosis 07-27-2012 08:18 PM

Get hosting for $100 and pocket the $900 a month

Exactly. No one will offer you much for it and it's best to just let it run into the ground. Lucas is wrong, we still take money after doing nothing much for 4 years.

fris 07-27-2012 11:15 PM

maybe titan can do something with it :p

2MuchMark 07-28-2012 12:12 AM

Don't sell it. Save money by switching to a lower cost hosting solute and let it run.

bns666 07-28-2012 04:06 AM

use cheaper hosting and convert it to tube :thumbsup
