I'm considering selling one (perhaps two) of my online side projects. Any suggestions how to go about this and any platform suggestions?
I have sold an online business before privately through Opportunity Overload (email newsletter) and avoided any fees, however, this email newsletter has since changed hands and doesn't provide this service anymore.
I'm aware of Flippa, however, I have heard mixed feedback about the platform and their fees seem extremely high!
This is a platform to sell side projects https://transferslot.com/
Thank you for mentioning Transferslot.com, I really appreciate (and I have less work to do that way! ;)).
Joke aside, we are doing our best to provide a really great alternative to Flippa by curating the submission in order to deliver great quality rather than quantity.
And of course, if anyone has any question about it, I'm happy to help!
Much better than Flippa for sure!
Thank you, I'm happy to hear that!! :)

Nice resource! It looks like there is a bug though. I tried to upvote Transferslot but the score got down to 0 instead of 1.
I believe you made a switch state between 0/1, not adding score ;)
Thank you for advice, I will correct it soon
Great resource!
This is exactly what I'm looking for! Cheers 👏🏻
Flippa works well for smaller projects. There are other brokers out there, the most well-known ones are Empire Flippers (https://empireflippers.com/) and FEI (https://feinternational.com/). Both of these brokers will charge higher fees than Flippa does and require that your project is of a significant size (I believe both only take businesses that generate $2,000+ of revenue per month). Both brokers have a well established track record and huge networks of qualified buyers.
If your side projects don't make the cut for one of the bigger brokers, I would go with Flippa. That is, unless you're willing to invest significant amounts of time and effort looking for a buyer.
Thanks for the advice - much appreciated 👌🏻

Last year I sold my side project with http://opportunityoverload.com. It's a weekly newsletter with a few handpicked deals. I got at least 10 replies with proposals. And sold my project in a week. Recommend.
hey Sam!

Hey Sam,
We'd be happy to list for you again.

What you selling, shoot me over an email.
Hi Sam,
I've sent an email to you regarding this topic :) I want to expand my sideproject portfolio and might be interested in buying yours.
Thanks
Hi Sam and to all,
Over the next month, it's $9.99 to list with OO - a sort of super bargain for Indie Hacker's readers.
It will be a one or two sentence blurb and we can host many listings if needed. We may need to start sending it out more frequently.
Sitting on a domain, company or company asset that you'd like to get rid of? Try OO.
Just shoot us an email at support@opportunityoverload.com
to get started.
Cheers,
OO Team
