They say all good things must come to an end, but in
this case it might just be the beginning. In a bold move, just before
the release of our next version, Pligg CMS has decided to sell the
business side of pligg. What once started as a rag tag group of rouge
open source developers a year and a half ago, today has become one of
the hottest Content Management System software used today. Pligg is
used by sites such as VH1’s Best Week Ever, VideoSift.com, Sk-rt.com,
Indianpad.com, RealEstateVoices.com, PlantChange.com, AgentB.com and
Rocketboom. The Google search for “powered by pligg” shows an
astounding figure of over 2,410,000 results.
The decision to sell the business end of Pligg just made sense.
The community has grown larger than ever expected, with just over
10,000 registered webmasters sharing and trading tips, over 60,000
Sourceforge downloads, 2 IRC rooms that are active 24/7. It’s become an
extremely large community to manage. We all have day jobs.
We’ve seen many businesses develop around pligg recently,
selling everything from custom templates, and modules, to support, and
installation. This is a clear example that with the proper team in
place, pligg.com could easily dominate the other markets in this area.
Pligg.com has been added to sedo and open for negotiations .
This sale includes the pligg.com domain along with all web content
created for the site including graphic design work, blog and forum
administrator accounts, rights to the Sourceforge.net account and the
Pligg CMS code.
