Curated gallery and template marketplace for single-page websites, run solo and bootstrapped by Rob Hope since March 2008 and monetised through paid submissions, template sales and sponsorships. Acquired by Some Studio in July 2026 for an undisclosed sum.
This database tracks 57 Marketplace exits, and the ones that disclosed a price sold at a median of $19,150. Category matters more than founders expect: buyers apply different discount rates to a content business, a mobile app and a B2B tool even at identical revenue.
From founding to sale took 18.3 years. Time to exit is a decent proxy for how built-to-sell a business was: shorter, cleaner processes usually mean documented operations and fewer surprises in due diligence.
