Good point on the site age. It was launched in July 2006, so about three and a half years.
I don’t have the time to put into increasing traffic, activity or PR. If I had, I’d be keeping the forums myself That’s why I’m willing to sell it for such a low price, hoping a new owner can tend to it better.

I don’t have a green thumb and I don’t have any time either so I’m not a good candidate.

However, what may be helpful if you can also list how long the site has been indexed (usually within days of having content).

In addition, what you might want to do is find a way to bump the PR up a little and improve the Alexa ranking as well.

Thank you – that is very kind of you to offer! I’ll do what I can to help too, but it’s always nice to have another mentor on a project.

This is really tempting, but my plate is hella full right now.

It’s a time thing, not a money thing.

Once you do sell, I might be willing to toss a couple of hours pro bono consulting to the new buyer to get it back up and running. 2100 pages of unique content is pretty darn good.
