10,000 fonts, how much are they worth?
 
I have a guy that wants to sell me a mainstream site.
He has all free fonts on it, 10,000 of them (Dont ask me where he got them)

You can see a example of each font and dl the font for free, or you can BUY all the fonts for $39.95

He said he will sell me the site for $2,000 but he says he only makes a few sales a week from it but said he gets over 5k uniques on the site daily.


I was wondering, does it sound worth it and maybe drop the price to make more sales?

How much would it be worth to a designer?

1) why would you want to buy a site when you have no idea where the guy got the content from... even if they are just fonts. Fonts are created by someone. Someone owns the rights to them.

2) it would take you 4 1/2 months to get your money back, and then another 4 1/2 months to make $2K.

3) push porn.. it's easier and quicker to make $2K.

Unless he can provide you with proof of where he got them it's not worth the risk

MGibson 01-22-2005 06:30 AM

Maybe thats why he's selling it.

I tried porn but it just didnt work to well.

Untill I can make more at porn online then someone working at minimum wage could make then Ill stick with design.

Okay, onto the next idea thanks guys.

Sounds like his site is crap. There are already over 500 billion trillion sites which let you download 50 million four hundred thousand and twenty seven fonts for free.

Yes, obviously. She does do a mean Dr Evil impression though.

RedShoe 01-22-2005 06:50 AM

your a designer?!?!... and you can't make money in porn?
If you can't sell, what makes you think your designs can?

Son, if you're a designer, surely you can make more than $2K in 4 months pushing porn.

MGibson 01-22-2005 06:53 AM

I don't design adult sites, mostly do tons of banners for mainstream sites.

I have never tried to make money in adult designs before... maybe should look into it, but there are ALOT of designers better then I am already in this business.

Shit dude... with an attitude like that, you won't make a cent.

I'm a piss-poor designer and I still make some extra cash designing.

MGibson 01-22-2005 07:10 AM

keyboard warrior 01-22-2005 07:34 AM

robfantasy 01-22-2005 07:36 AM

ya that site sounds like a peice of shit

RedShoe 01-22-2005 07:38 AM

MGibson... What if I offered to help you? You're too hard on yourself. You've given up before you even tried. If you tried and didn't make any money and you quit.. well then you gave up too fast.

This business is not easy if you think like everyone else. You'll need to relearn a lot of things.

1st up.. your attitude towards yourself.

There are tons of designers in this business and trust me, a lot of them suck ass, but they still make money.

When and if you ever eant to.. my offer to help you is out on the table.
My ICQ # is 114683191

If you don't have ICQ, GET IT! It's the backbone of our world. (too bad it sucks ass)

MGibson 01-22-2005 07:41 AM

Going to dl icq now.

pxxx 01-22-2005 07:51 AM

It is going to worth a lot of money.

MGibson 01-22-2005 08:39 AM

About 15 minutes of work for a mainstream site.

I could have gotten it down to 32 colors and it would have loaded in about 10 seconds on a 56k, but I left it at high colors.


Okay start laughing.

No one laughing yet?

sickkittens 01-22-2005 09:25 AM

The question is what do you need 10,000 fonts for?
