Hi everyone in this blog I will share my story how I sold one of my projects called "beSocial" for 30 USD to a foreign client.

Last year, in November I built a social-media cum blogging platform called "beSocial", which featured all the basic functionalities that are found in typical social media site: like share post, like/dislike, comment, follow/unfollow etc.

The project was made using Nodejs, Expressjs, Mongodb and other NPM libraries. I hosted it on Render.com in free tier. The website was minimalistic and easy to operate. It took me a week to design and develop it from scratch.

After deploying and getting beSocial live, I decided to sell it on Sideprojectors.com, a platform where you can list your side projects. I listed beSocial for $30.

In May, I got an email from a person in Kenya, he was interested in buying the source-code of beSocial. I created a sales agreement and sent it to him. After three days he sent me $30 through PayPal and I, as per the agreement sent him the complete proper documentation along with the code, wrapped in a zip file, to him.
