Stop letting your dead side projects collect dust there's a buyer for almost every online business you've abandoned
Here's a question nobody in this community asks enough:
What happens to all the projects you built and stopped working on?
Most indie hackers have a graveyard. A blog that got 2,000 monthly visitors before you lost interest. A SaaS tool with 12 paying customers you stopped supporting. A niche affiliate site that still earns $80/month on autopilot while you've moved on to the next thing.
These aren't failures. They're assets. And someone out there would pay real money for them today.

The problem with selling online businesses right now
The existing platforms for buying and selling websites are either built for brokers (taking 15%+ cuts), or designed for 6-figure exits that take months to close. There's almost nothing built for the indie scale — the $300 blog, the $2K newsletter, the $8K micro-tool.
That's the gap I'm building into with AcquireYet — a straightforward marketplace for buying and selling websites, blogs, and online businesses of all sizes.

Who this is actually for
If you're a builder — sell projects you've outgrown or don't have time for anymore.
If you're a buyer — acquire a proven asset instead of starting from zero.
If you're an investor — find cash-flowing niche sites and digital businesses.
If you're just curious — browse to understand what online businesses are actually worth.

What makes a project worth listing?
More than you think. Buyers on platforms like this look for:
— Any consistent traffic, even 500 visits/month
— Any revenue, even $50/month
— A domain with backlinks and age
— A newsletter list, even a small one
— A working product with even a handful of users
You don't need to be making thousands of dollars for your project to have real value to the right buyer.

What I'd love from this thread
Two things:
1. Tell me about your graveyard. What's a project you built, stopped working on, but never fully shut down? I'm genuinely curious how many people here are sitting on sellable assets without realizing it.
2. What would make you actually list it? Is it trust? Simplicity? Finding the right buyer? I want to know what's blocking the sale.
