I do a lot of business buying and selling websites… mostly buying but I can never keep up with all the forums. One of my goals this week was to write something that parsed all the popular ecommerce websites and combined them to 1 page and 1 feed.
I present…….
The Webmaster Marketplace
and if prefer RSS
Currently it shows from SitePoint, Digitalpoint, Webmaster-talk, and DNforums. If anyone can think of another popular forum that provides a rss feed I will add it in
Also if any webmaster do not want to take part but your links are there then let me know and I will remove them.
I am also going to make a widget for it on my sidebar to show the newest sites/domains for sale.
I hope some of you find this as useful as I do
I will probably add more flare to it (make it scroll digg like) and by me of course I mean dillsmack.
Seriously tho I have coded it thus far… amazingly

nice tool, shoe. have you tried extracting urls and prices from the topics? you could put together a really attractive interface, i think.
February 9, 2007 at 8:43 pm
this is phase 1 … we will see how it goes
February 9, 2007 at 8:43 pm
This has existed for a long time lol.
http://www.bizmp.com
February 9, 2007 at 9:13 pm
Indeed — http://www.bizmp.com/ has been around for awhile and has really developed the idea.
February 9, 2007 at 9:23 pm
lol bizmp sucks though.. Shoe will do it up right
February 9, 2007 at 9:24 pm
interesting… never heard of them before. I wonder why nobody uses that site. Well after looking at it for a bit I see why
February 9, 2007 at 9:27 pm
sm I love your tools. Always simple to use. I think bizmp way over complicated it and also its so buggy. I cant wait to see what you whip up.
February 9, 2007 at 9:31 pm
omg bizmp is JUNK they just scrape and keep you on there site. I like this a lot you just click and go right to the thread you want. I am sure the forum owners love the traffic also.
February 9, 2007 at 9:34 pm
ummm lol half the links on the site are 404 errors… lol
February 9, 2007 at 9:35 pm
Shoe I added this to my rss reader. Awesome job man!
February 9, 2007 at 11:02 pm
its actually pretty nice but REALLY slow.
if you can touch this up you’ll be rolling…
February 10, 2007 at 2:20 am
Hasnt this already been done ?
Oh well, nice linkbait just the same.. be nice if the respective sites actually published captions via RSS.
I’ll be interested to see if theres anyone actually crazy enough to put this on their site.. instant links for you whenever you want them.

You should put a date tag in front of all items Shoe, so we can easily see when new ones popped up
. I like the idea tho!
Thanks!
February 10, 2007 at 6:17 am
PERFECT!
Seriously, this is just what I needed.
Thanks, Jeremy.
February 10, 2007 at 10:50 am
Nice tool, all in one place. Thank you, Jeremy.
February 10, 2007 at 11:46 am
You should integrate some kind of “digg” style function where more experienced webmasters can rate the site and leave a comment. The issue with a lot of these sales is 90% of the stuff is just rubbish and a lot of innocent people get ripped off
February 10, 2007 at 2:11 pm
That’s a great idea Lee, you could go one further and extract top ten sites by category, sites to avoid etc. Thanks for that shoemoney, it’s gone straight on my bloglines.

You can also run the feed through http://www.ZapTXT.com and have them send you alerts based on trigger words.
February 11, 2007 at 3:54 am
Just curious, is it based on the new yahoo pipes?
February 11, 2007 at 4:20 am
Nice site shoe, but BizMP is defintely way better than this, and has more features. I would put your resources into something else as since bizmp updated there site is 100% faster, and no more bugs.
February 11, 2007 at 12:14 pm
hey im not in a competition =P I just spent 3 hours making something that I wanted to use … thats it..
February 11, 2007 at 10:26 pm
Great tool shoe! The less time I spend browsing boards the more time I can get some actual work done.Try to include namepros.com for the next release. I took a quick look and I`m not sure if they have an RSS feed though
February 12, 2007 at 5:06 am
does this pick up every single site that is up for sale??
May 16, 2007 at 1:52 pm
Did you just shut down this tool? I really liked it. You have future plans for this or is it gone?
