Photo Sharing Site Photwo Goes Up For Auction

photwoWe reviewed photo sharing site Photwo when they launched in January. I said that it was the easiest photo sharing site I've seen at that point. The site is based out of Norway and founder Magnus K S Andersen tells me that their business model was to sell prints and premium features. Check out our review for more analysis on Photwo.

The company has shared some stats regarding Photwo usage:

  • Currently the site has 2,477 users and 11,306 photos uploaded
  • Page views/month: 33,425
  • Pagerank 4
  • Uniques/Month: 3,239

The site was listed this morning on Sitepoint auctions for sale. The minimum bid is $2,000 and so far there have been no bids. Looks like the auction goes for two more weeks. The auction also includes a Norwegian version of this site.

Here's an example gallery:

I wonder when/if zoomr.com will follow the same route. Haven't heard much of them in a while and checking Compete numbers (for what it's worth) shows piss poor traffic.

john - from what i understand the founder of zooomr is now in japan and the site is doing very well over there - remember that compete only shows US traffic.

Did you check zooomr.com and not zoomr.com? They actually show 100k US uniques a month which isn't that bad.
