Selling my website

Website sell agreement

[chatrath]

Hi All,

I am planing to sell my website. Can I find the agreement online some where. I just wanted to protect my self once the deal is done. I don't want to be involved in any kind of profit, loss or misuse of the website.

Would be great if someone can advice about the same.

Sorry, if I am in wrong Form.

Regards

We can't give legal advice. We can give opinions, and here's mine:

Depending on the amount of money, you might want to get a lawyer involved in the sale. If a nominal amount, and you wish to have nothing more to do with it, an "As Is" sale is possible. If you have domain registrations, etc, you'll want to let those go as well, but as transfers, not sales (can't sell what you don't own). Other than that, I have no other ideas.

You can use fancy lawyer language, or plain speak, but whatever you do make sure the terms and conditions are IN WRITING so there aren't problems in the future.

chatrath -

Are you selling the domain name, or the complete package (including content). Are you giving up the rights to the materials on the website?
