i really have no idea what im going to do.

i already have 20 offers in the last 2 hours. i really dont know what to do. i'd love for someone to buy us out and let us hire some additional programmers to blow the site up and redo it from scratch. stileproject is my life, i don't do anything else but work on the site. i'm seriously depressed right now. its just been me and my sysadmin for the last 9 years and we're just overworked from running 15 sites and burnt out.

what do you guys think i should do and how much do u think i should sell for?

What would happen if you've unloaded some of the other 14 sites to take some strain off of you and then you can focus on the one that you truly care about?

take a holiday ans get some perspective man.

wtfent 06-29-2009 08:49 PM

lol man I was browsing Stile when I was still in highschool in 2000 before I even had a computer. Stile, I'm not even joking when I say this, The first time I ever looked at online porn was on your site specifically the random pics page. lol will never forget it, for the longest time your site was the only place my friends and I went for porn. :thumbsup

wtfent 06-29-2009 08:52 PM

I had no idea about search engines or anything, I was just told by my buddy Charlie about Stileproject.com and that was my portal to the web. Any browsing i did to any other sites I clicked on from Stile Project.

Best of luck man, I really hope you find a buyer.

That's the best advice you can get.

People are out in the real world unable to find jobs. You have a site that makes good money. You're just burnt out. I get that way too...and then I compare what other people are going through and realize I have it damn good.

Fuck, first Farrah, Then MJ, Billy Mays, now Stile?

It's the end of the world as we know it... and I DON'T feel fine. :(

tigermtb 06-29-2009 09:11 PM

Wow, well.. whoever buys it I'd be happy to help with ad sales ;)

Best of luck with the sale, although its pretty shitty timing.. :(

Rock It 06-29-2009 09:16 PM

Well You need to take a break bro.
Your caught up and wound way to tight right now.

Your site which I remember very distinctly as being cutting edge , was a great look at what sites would become in the future.

I have not taken a look at the site in years but just as you know the internet is not gonna change in the next 60 to 90 days.

The valuation of your site right now cause you are depresses would be a wrong decision,
look back at when you started and what you wanted to accomplish I am sure you have surpassed all your goals if you had any.

There will be soembody out there that will buy your site and I am sure you will get the wire into your account and be happy for about 20 minutes...then you will have remorse for a lifetime.

Your basically someone who has been succesfull with a partner who is leaving and you are directionless.

Not trying to be an idiot or anything like that but I would put the site on auto pilot for a while and not worry too much and take a 2 to 3 month journey to a place like Africa or India and see what the world is all about.


I am sure with a break like that you will come back with a lot of inspiration and the right person will come around with which you can implement what you need to do and move forward into the next decade.

Mutt 06-29-2009 09:18 PM

this really doesn't add up - your main reason for selling you say is that you've lost your programmer to a big job in mainstream - nobody in mainstream is offering your programmer who has been working 10 years on a shock website for hundreds of thousands of dollars - if your programmer was making big money with you he wouldn't be leaving.

it sounds to me like you want to cash out before things go down the shitter - which is fine, nothing wrong with that. i just don't think you're selling because you've lost or losing your programmer.

how could you have no money if you have sites worth 7 figures? Dont they generate income?

BradM 06-29-2009 09:37 PM

Before you sell, stay on top of things.... like any emails trying to buy ad space. And hit up anyone who has ever bought in the past. You could still run this thing.

sexdatesj 06-29-2009 09:37 PM

Stile.

I am interested in your site.

Contact me joel @ sexdatecash.com

I think somebody probably hacked his account who knows.....doesn't add up?

NickB. 06-29-2009 09:49 PM

damn sorry to hear you have to sell the site.. i love it!

tony286 06-29-2009 09:57 PM

Best of luck with the sale.

stile 06-29-2009 10:40 PM

the story is my programmer who is pretty much my biz partner got an offer from the largest tech company out there after microsoft. he helped program freebsd and they want him to do something specific for them. i can't get into details.. all i can said is that i really can't see myself running my site with out the guy. he's my best friend and has been doing it with me for 9 years through thick and thin.

So are you buying him out since he's your partner or is he just walking away and leaving you with 100% of the profits?

NETbilling 06-29-2009 11:35 PM

Stile,

We have done business together for many years and you are a straight up guy. You are smart and I am sure you are making the right decision that will make you happy. Let me know if you need anything.

Thanks, Mitch

Man I was about to say the same thing... very strange that hes asking in the "7 figure range" but can't pay his programmer to stay? Hell with that kind of revenue, you can afford to keep him at low 6 figures?

Besides, with Google dancing a way different tune as of late, maybe now is the time to get the fuck out and cash out before the shit hits the fan. Nothing wrong with that. :2 cents:

95% of the time someone is selling a business is because it's not making profit or takes way too much effort to run.

He paid Batts 500 for this ID. You dont even make that much off your sorry-ass tube. Get with the program kid.

ok, maybe not 500. broke ass probably sold it for 50.

Grisey 06-30-2009 02:23 AM

Sad to see you selling this ( i remeber when i first started in 2003 looking at this site) but i got to kinda agree with mutt. There is some really good programmers out there, i can't see why you couldn't just hire someone else.

Take a holiday and chill out for a week or 2

CunningStunt 06-30-2009 02:47 AM

Stileproject is an icon.

Best of luck with whatever you decide to do.

Sounds to me like you just need a very good programmer who you can go into partnership with, and get over the break up of the existing one. You obviously still have the drive and enthusiasm for it all.

Or, as others have said, get out now while it's still cooking with gas. To get into the top 2500 most visited sites on the web is nuts.

If it really hurts you to see your baby going - don't sell it. There are tons of good programmers out there.

If your programmer, who has been with the site since the start, cared about everything so much he would not have left either. :2 cents:

End of an era! Good luck Stile :)

StileProject is top quality traffic!

Good luck with the sale
