Instead of attacking my comments, it would make your offer more credible if you provided the ACTUAL information which supports it. You are still hiding details to your offer.

When people buy computers on here, people ask for specs. All you have done is shown a text based flash design. I could make one of those in a minute for like $10. It's not that hard.

So, besides the crappy flash thing you have, WHAT ELSE DO YOU HAVE that's more than $100? (Don't worry mods, I probably won't comment any further. Just seeing what this guy really has, and it's obvious if he can't put up this time, we should both shut up).

None of what you mentioned adds up to more than 100 dollars.

I know PHP and SQL. They're pretty cool.

So, you are running a business and soliciting through these boards for free. Case closed.

[skitzo]

Man... you're just grasping at straws now. Soliciting for business? Uh no... did you read the last line:

I'll do you 3 CMS sites for $100 each. Seriously.

Put your money where your mouth is.

what witty banter!

i can see why some of your links aren't working. when clicking on 'Jobs Available' (which is misspelled, btw) you're taken to a subdirectory /jobs/ but clicking the menu links no longer work because they're not directing properly to the root folder. you need to move jobs out of the subdirectory into the root folder to allow your menu to work properly.

this error only appears on jobs ... not on the other menu options.

i don't like most of your stock images. for me, they don't have a friendly feeling. it's a minor point, but having a foreign teacher with the kids in the first shot, and smiling kids (with arms raised) in the second shot, would make for a positive message ... although, like i mentioned, they're just stock photos, so they're easily changed.

the big downside is that this recruiting site doesn't seem to have its own domain name. you're running it off the back of your hosting site name. so it's actually a sub-domain. having a unique domain name to sell with the site increases its value significantly ... as an IT teacher, you'd know that.

however the template is good (clean and easy to navigate) for someone interested in starting their own recruiting business.

the second positive point is that there's a lot of useful information provided in the faqs and legalities sections. it's a helpful start for possible recruits who are interested in reading more and learning about the way things are done here.

without a domain, i think the price tag might be a tad steep. i'm basing my opinion on a few things, but most importantly is value.

let's go back to the car analogy: a car's value might be $1000. repairs and such don't increase the value of the car, they just prevent depreciation. so putting a lot of work into the site doesn't always increase its value either. just because you have 3 databases, doesn't mean anything in terms of value.

for example, smf is an auto install forum which virtually anyone could install with little web knowledge. although, i think you should try and integrate your smf theme a little more closely with your website's colours.

secondly, and most importantly, if a car is valued to you at $1000, but nobody is prepared to pay $1000, then the car isn't actually worth $1000. my point is that the time to build a site, code some pages, design headers, etc may have been worth X amount of money in time and skill, but it's not worth anything if there's no market or buyer.

i'm not saying your site's worth nothing ... i'm just saying that you may need to re-evaluate your site's value if there's no interest in purchasing it.

IMO, $850 is steep ... not unreasonable, just steep. someone interested in recruiting could get a similar project going with a joomla cms running out of the box for free. smf is free ... the only cost would be the domain and hosting.

finally, $14 a year for hosting is pretty good ... add another $7 a year for a domain and it's a $20 a year investment.

i can't see you getting much interest here ... but nonetheless, good luck with your sale.



cheers

Thanks for the input super dave.

Sargex - sounds good!! PM me and I'll send you the admin log on to see what the requirements of the sites will look like.

You'll have to set up the databases, password protect the php scripts with secondary files, create an admin section (no phpmyadmin) to access the databases, create the scripts to pull from the MySQL databases as well as delete from said databases; create the php forwarding script for the e-mail as well as the Newsletter listing pages.

All that for $100! Cool.

This is the oddest board I've ever been on. On most boards / forums if someone posts something for sale or they offer a service (or anything).... people will read it and say to themselves "no, I'm not interested in that" and then move on to the next posting.

No.... not here. People here simply attack. I said I was selling a website numerous times and people attacked via franchise opportunities (?) ... talked about where profits go..? weird. I have to defend myself for an innocuous e-mail. If I made a claim I could not follow up on (like a couple people in this thread) I'd understand. I am not making any claims to anything.

Best of luck


P.S. - SargeX I'm still waiting for that PM (I didn't think you were legit).
