Retweet.com Sells for $250,000

From the “make you sick” category, the website retweet.com was sold today for a whopping $250,000. ADHEREL

Don’t believe such a site could fetch a price like that, well click here to see the auction. The buyer was not disclosed.

Retweet.com is actually a pretty useful site. What is does is tally the number of retweets sent for every tweet on twitter.

Per the listing, the site makes a big squadoosh in total revenue, but its service hits 12,000,000 users a month and their green “reweet” box/button is installed on many of the top blogs. (The button updates with the number of times the story/link has been retweeted.)

The make you sick even further, the site was launched last August! That all said, i believe twitter has trademarked the term “tweet” in addition to “twitter”, so buyer beware. Twitter could legally (I believe) pull the plug on you at any moment.

By the way, Flippa is often littered with scam and low quality type sites. It’s good to see something of value actually get sold on their.
