@Charles_SEO Better spec on the Razer but, imo a better looking UI, a more secure and streamlined ecosystem and probably less chance of tech issues on the Mac. Unless you're doing video processing/need the heavy lifting of the Razer, Mac would be my choice.
Personal finance blog MoneyUnder30 sold for $675,000 this month.
As far as I can tell - the situation is a bit tough to unravel - there's a good chance the site was losing money.
It was last acquired in 2017 for $7M by XLMedia $XLM.
XLMedia have been selling off their personal finance sites (also sold InvestorJunkie last month) and this is the last one to go.
They reported that for 2022, their finance assets generated $1.9M in revenue, with an EBITDA loss of $1.3M.
It could be the case that other sites accounted for that loss and not MoneyUnder30, but that's still a ~90% valuation decrease in 7 years.
I only started really looking into this a few hours ago so I may have missed something but that's my understanding so far. Happy to be updated / corrected in the comments.
I much prefer reporting on good news in this space so good luck to the new owners. I wouldn't be surprised to see the site get a bit of a design refresh to start with.
We're looking to expand the team. We have an open position for an SEO Executive at Forbes Home.

1-Year at Forbes ✅ 🎉
It's been a crazy journey over the last 18-months since starting an SEO career.
Proud to be part of the team and work with some very talented people.
I've been a bit quiet lately but...
I'm thrilled to share that I've started a new role this week at @ForbesAdvisor as an SEO Executive.
It's been an incredible journey since switching careers and I'm delighted to join the amazing SEO team over at Forbes 🎉
@MattTutt1 GenerateBlocks is the page builder companion with a library of useful 'blocks' for GeneratePress - from the same developers Matt. It's pretty cool!
@shwnhll Similar to plugins. 💯 I spent way too much time changing the design and focusing on the look of the site.
Instead, the priority should have been content creation. Great thread!
In July 2021 I switched careers from retail into SEO.
I spent lockdown 1&2 stacking shelves then I was given the opportunity to pursue a career in SEO.
I wrote an article to share what I've learned in my first 3 months in-house.
