Hopefully it sells. And I get sick of all the myspace sites and proxies over at DP. If the caliber of blogs at performancing stays high I'll check back often. I put a site up for sale on it.

I really hope it succeeds, you have to wade through a lot of crap at DP and at Sitepoint. Unless you're actually interested in proxies and auto blogs.

S2N means something if there's actually signal or noise. With a handful of listings, it's hard to have either. Secondly, my first point pretty much echoes Chris's. SitePoint may have more crap sites, but at least they have more sites. Couple things. S2N means something if there’s actually signal or noise. With a handful of listings, it’s hard to have either.

Performancing features blogs *only* 2. SitePoint's signal to noise ratio is a joke 3. When's the last time you've seen a solid, unmanipulated PR7 blog for sale at SitePoint? Sometimes it's not a bad thing to have a smaller pool. E.g. I'd rather cool off in a kiddie pool with fresh water then a swimming pool that consisted of 90% piss and 10% water. A couple points.

Further, I'm not sure what you consider a track record, nor what you consider "rock solid" but there are plenty of blogs in b5 that are borderline worthless, so you might want think about a little house cleaning before you offer criticism. The audience at college startup isn't looking to spend 35k on a blog like technosailor. Most of them are looking to get started in 3 figure arena, based on my conversations with dozens of young, but relatively poor college students. Aaron,

I think it's still SitePoint for me, they have less crap than DigitalPoint, and a good number of serious sellers every month with solid blogs for sale. Ummm… hardly any selection.

And none that are rock-solid. Hard to establish a track record with 4 blogs on the block. And none that are rock-solid.
