    I have put the domain GadgetWeekly.com for sale. I have removed all content and parked the domain at sedo.co.uk. I don’t know if that is a good decision, but I need money and I need it fast, so I have little choice.

    Until a week ago, GadgetWeekly.com had EE running on it with some content on all sorts of gadgets, but I’ve never really did something worthwhile with the site, and I think it’s not a bad name… Originally I wanted to bring hot news on gadgets but I lacked the time to chase the news and since then the site has not been updated—which is now well over half a year.

    Still, the domain by itself still seems to attract visitors. The EE license for GadgetWeekly.com has expired so buyers will need to start from scratch…

    I probably would not have removed the content unless there’s a special reason.
    It attracts traffic and keeps the site in the SERPS. Something a potential buyer might be interested in. He could dump it himself later anyways.

    An ExpressionEngine License does not expire. You only lose the right to download updates after a year.

    OK, bad idea. Da**n! These guys at Sedo.co.uk insisted on parking the domain on their servers; now there’s Adense stuff shown on there… I stink at this game.
    I got confused about the license. You’re right of course.

    Nobody here is interested in the domain name, I suppose?  :roll:
