www.cross-stitch-pattern.com up for sale on ebay

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7522025061

The domain name comes with the full set of pdf files for sale (39 unique cross stitch patterns) and html code (though the succesful bidder is obviously under no obligation to use it ) and the website has been established for 2.5 years. Not a huge number of sales, but a great little business opportunity for someone with the time, conviction and expertise to develop the business and improve SE rankings and linking strategy.

Oh, btw, I own and will relinquish full copyright to the designs to the successful bidder.

(PS... anyone think of anywhere else I can publicise this usefully? )

 

Any info on income / search engine rankings for relevant keyphrases?

Thanks
Ajeet

 

Ajeet, currently income is low. $18.50 (4 patterns) sold in May 2005. The prospective buyer would have to be wanting/willing to spend some e-commerce development time on the site - this is reflected in the reserve (but so is the inclusion of 39 unique cross stitch patterns). Search Engine Rankings I no longer have... I did keep track with the digitalpoint tool for a long time, but other data became more pressing for me.

 

Lovely niche site! I will be monitoring it on Ebay, but it will most probably go over my budget. As for the 4 patterns in May, was it one transaction, or more transactions/buyers?

 

Thanks for the compliment... I'm kinda sorry to let it go, you know when a lot of work went into something?? But like a cheetah, I gotta know where my energies are best expended, and I would just like to see something done with it. If it comes in under reserve, mail me

The four patterns were in two sales.

 

for what its worth index page PR is 4, direct links from main nav (inc the resources/links page) are PR 3 and all the individual item pages are PR 2

 

I've added it to my watch list on ebay - if it ends within my budget I think it would make a great present for my wife

 

and still likely within most peoples budgets

Could be a small hobby site for a loved one that has the potential to turn into a more serious business... or complement an already existing crafts web site portfolio...

 

Nice website. Added to my watch list.

 

Hi

Is this site straight html or done thru a CMS solution?

Can you tell me a little about the www.payloadz.com digital delivery system and how I would go about setting up with my paypal account?

Any Adsense revenue? How many pages indexed?

 

Straight HTML, all hand coded (some php for includes, and one for the links page, though I would recommend any purchaser start again on that, I've done no work on it for a long time)

registration with payloadz is simple... check out www.payloadz.com you regitser with you paypal address and set the paypal IPN to the script payloadz give you on their site... from there it is a simple matter to regitser your products on their database (including the loacation of the file) and you then receive a payment link much like paypal... I like payloadz system

All the pages are google indexed, and I attach an excel file of the adsense report for May... reasonable impressions, but currently low click through
