Back in October 2008, KillerStartups acquired the domain name Startups.com for roughly $500,000 in cash. About a year later, Startups.com was relaunched as a Q&A site for business questions. Today, KillerStartups is launching a new initiative: a daily deals site for Internet entrepreneurs and online business owners.

The new site, which will be hosted at Startups.com (the Q&A section moved to answers.startups.com) will feature a 50% to 80% discount on useful Web applications, software, ebooks, gadgets and other resources entrepreneurs might need to grow their online business. AppSumo launched a similar service back in July 2010.

KillerStartups says it spent months researching which resources an Internet entrepreneur needs to improve and automate an online business.

Startups.com will be free of charge – you can sign up here.

The company says it will start sharing deals with their subscribers as soon as they reach a minimum of 10,000 members.
