πŸ‹ Website Marketplace Insolvency + 16 New Listings

Make Lemonade goes into administration, and 16 new content site and media listings across the major marketplaces

Powered By

Hey there πŸ‘‹,

Over the last week a new website marketplace, which I was hoping I could start to feature their listings, went into administration:

Make Lemonade was the recently rebranded Niche Website Builders, who launched a website marketplace back at the end of May. As of last week it had some sizeable listings such as this fishing site for six figs.

According to the owners, Adam & Mark, the reason was AI content:

❝

The steep rise in AI content resulted in an incredibly quick decline in revenue. Being such a large business with lots of staff and high overheads, we were unable to cut costs quickly enough.

Adam Smith

Running a marketplace and/or agency is a complex business, and Jacky Chou from Indexy replied in the thread that he thinks this will be the first of many.

Fortunately, I’m helping to improve and scale the #1 newsletter marketplace Duuce, which is well capitalized after the acquisition by Scott Oldford, becoming part of Wisdom Media (which this newsletter is also now part of).

Cheers!

This week we have 16 content site and media listings:

  • 3 new newsletter listings from acquire.com

  • Motion Invest had 12 new content site listings, I feature the 4 remaining that earn > $100/m in profit.

  • Empire Flippers had 6 new content site listings, I feature all of them.

  • Odys had 21 aged domain listings ranging from $800 to $24,000, and I feature the 3 most recent websites (aged domains + content).

🌐 = content site, πŸ’° = monetization, βœ‰οΈ = newsletter, πŸ“› = aged domain
