I’ve just received a most serious acquisition offer. Given their domain, I can’t help but wonder about the strategic fit 🙂
Hi,
We are interested in possibly acquiring your website, www.zoliblog.com, as it
would be a good strategic fit for our web portfolio.
If you’re interested in discussing further please let me know.A little about us - we are representing a small and privately owned company
with a $5 million fund for investing in websites.
They are headquartered in Denver with offices in Philippines and India and a
workforce of around 100 people between all offices. Please also note that our
due diligence process is painless – all we care about is *traffic* so when the
time comes we will need to see your Google Analytics
and then can submit a firm bid to you. We pay all cash — no "earn-outs" and
other gimmicks.I hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks,

Do you think your 5 readers would mind?
🙂
“Just say NO”
Well, now I only have to worry about the other 4 🙂
Please, PLEASE TELL ME that they aren’t called ‘wank media’.
Indeed, they are… and just look at the other great sites they own:
http://whois.domaintools.com/wankmedia.com
Now, where was that strategic fit? 🙂
Haha, I got the same exact email for one of my sites today. The lack of disclosing what sites they own is probably a bad sign. (in addition to the name that is!)
I don’t even want to think through the strategic fit of rabbit + porn 🙂
I’m struggling to see the strategic fit but then maybe they know something ‘we’ don’t. 🙂
I just took a look at the other sites on the whois.domaintools… erm, interesting, at least their name ‘fits’.
And another version:
