The MagMyPic.com Journey…

maggleSo I decided to begin to gauge some interest in selling MagMyPic.com.  Mag has been my baby along with Matt for what’s going on two years.   We started the site with hopes of success, but we weren’t really prepared for the type of success we’d end up having.  We started the site and as the hits trickled in, we would get excited…the day we hit 1,000 hits a day, the day we hit 10,000 hits in a day.  Then the whole thing blew up, and before you know it we were pushing 80,000 visitors today, making 70,000 magazines a day and in a whirlwind while we tried to keep servers up and running.  But it was fun.  

Mag eventually settled down and we partnered with pYzam/TreeRoom who promoted the site with us.  It’s cruising along okay I suppose, but between full-time jobs, full-time babies and such, I’ve decided to at least look at selling it and moving on from Mag once and for all.  We’ve seen some interest so far but not quite in the price range we’re hoping for, so we’ll have to wait and see what happens.  Either way, Mag’s been a fun and unexpected journey that has been good to us and hopefully helped teach us a lot about the industry that we can apply to all of our future ventures.
