Would you sell you 3-month old blog for $18k?

If you just bought a new domain and put up a blog three months ago then someone wants to buy it from you, would you sell it if they offered $18,000?

Most people would. This one guy didn’t bite it.

This 25 year old guy from the St. Louis was offered a cool $18,000 plus 10% commission for the first year revenues of an upcoming book with the same title as his blog – One Man’s Goal. The publishing house that represented the book author wanted to buy his domain, onemansgoal.com, to promote the book’s launching.

Bryan Clark registered the domain last July 2 and just barely 3 months into the blog this incidental offer was made. He thought about it hard at first but later one decided not to sell. Here are his reasons for not selling the domain.

Do you agree with him? Would you have sold it if it were you?

    Im also getting this kind of offer as high as $250K (so far) for my mobilegadget.com domain.. the problem is most of it looks not legit as they used either a @yahoo or @hotmail email if you ask them to escrow they won’t reply back they just want me to transfer before they pay.. hahaha ano sila hilo??
