The owner of Australian technology website MacTalk has taken the unusual step of selling his business via online auction website flippa.com after failing to get a mainstream publisher interested in the business.
Anthony Agius, who started the site around six years ago and now gets 1.5 million page views per month is hoping to attract offers above $125,000 but admits he is looking for a quick sale.
...resulting in more than $90,000 in revenue last year.
Agius says it’s cheap to run with main costs including around $1800 per month for contributors, $100 per weekly podcast and the site is hosted free of charge.
“For me it’s certainly enough to live off and I really enjoy working from my living room in my underwear rather than going to a real job every day.”
