I sold my one month project for $6,000

I sold mentionlist.com for $6000. I launched it a month ago. For a month, about 10 people wrote to me who were interested in buying.

Why did you decide to sell?
I have very little work now and I needed money to have some kind of reserve. It takes a lot of time to promote your project for a good income, and I could not wait that long.

Now that I have some money left and I'm embarking on a new project. Like the previous project, I will build it publicly and talk about it on my Twitter: https://twitter.com/AlexBelogubov

    Hey, can you please let me know your journey on how you found the buyers ?

    How did they price the product ?

    What is this product about? seems like site is down.

    By the time of selling, was that started generating revenue?

      I think the site should be up and running soon. The essence of the project is to track mentions on reddit and twitter.
      At the time of the sale, there was 1 paying client (bought an annual plan) and about 65 free ones.

    Followed you on Twitter. Great job :)

    Congratulations. Did you advertise it somehow you want to sell it, or did they approach you first?

      Most of the offers were there before I posted them on the micro-startup platform (tinyacquisitions.com). But the most interested buyer was found on Tinyacquisitions.

    Good. Congrats!
    How long did it take you to build? What was the tech stack used? Did you have any experience in this domain before you built it?

      Thanks! I started building in January and built in my free time, but took long breaks of 1-2 weeks. I think I could build in 3 weeks. Stack: Node.js, Express.js, MongoDB. Before that, I did 1 project on the node.js for myself, and I studied on it. Before that, I worked only with PHP/WordPress - my main work is connected with this direction.
