A Zune website has been sold for $62,000. Zuneboards.com creator Hansup Yoon is a 15 year old student from California who built and sold his Zune site in under 2 years time.

I think Hansup is smart in dumping the site now because Zune is not going to be lighting up the sales this year and he can use the money maybe to build another site for something else maybe. Let’s hope the site does well and keeps on moving at the pace it is going. It was said to make $1,000 per month already and they paid over 60 for it. Now they have to monetize that site and keep the traffic running.

Young entrepreneur Hansup Yoon, 15, recently sold his creation ZuneBoards, an Internet forum devoted to Microsoft’s Zune media player, for $62,000.

The teenager, who lives in Fullerton, Calif., created the site months before Microsoft introduced its answer to Apple’s iPod in 2006.

“It was the most perfect time to start a Web site about Zune, and I was one of the first few to create a Zune-related site,” he said.
