Selling Movie Site - Earning $3,000+ a Month in Revenue.

Discussion in 'Sites' started by x.marty.x, Jul 16, 2010.

    I have another movie website for sale here. I started it in May and I now want to sell it off and move on into some online e-stores. The site has only been monetized with CPAlead and recently Loudmo was introduced but I haven't added any CPM based advertisements as of yet (which would further increase revenue). We have 3,850 pages indexed in Google.

    http://www.desiredmovies.com

    1. Traffic

    92.42% of our traffic is organic, 97.24% of which is from Google.

    May - 8265 uniques and 20,120 impressions.
    June - 94,978 uniques with 154,679 impressions.
    July - 200,866 with 397,273 impressions (so far).

    More traffic information can be found here including Geo Tracking and Referrers.

    2. Revenue

    CPAlead is the main source of revenue with this website. Only 5-6% of the traffic is converting so if you do some gateway optimizing then I'm sure you can raise the revenue dramatically with the number of clicks. This is making over $100 per day.

    Screenshot - http://i27.tinypic.com/2ymyvdd.png

    Loudmo is an additional source of revenue which we added sometime this month to see how it'd perform. It's not great but it's an additional $100 or so a month so who's complaining? This is making around $5 a day.

    Screenshot - http://i26.tinypic.com/jug1e8.png

    3. Hosting & Domain

    I currently host the website on my own server and the website has used just under 30gb of bandwidth so far this month with the movie cover images. I pay around $130 a month for this server.

    The domain is registered at Domainsite and can be transferred to your account for free.

    4. Sale Conditions

    The sale will go through Escrow.

    I will not sell if I don't meet my reserve price.

    Okay, let's go.

    By those screenshots you are not earning $3000 a month, as your screenshot shows you are earned $790.01 last month. Anyway thats just an observation from what i saw on the screenshots, if i am wrong please correct me.

    You need to compare last months traffic to this months traffic. Would you not expect it to make more with an increase in traffic?

    CPAlead was only added late last month. The site is making over $100 a day right now ($110 so far today, with over 4 hours to go until it resets).

    That's incorrect.

    They still allow movie sites, just not for high paying mobile offers.

    Thanks for you opinion, now move along.

    Do a quick google search for the keyword 'watch movies' - see me at #5 or #6? That's right. Organic traffic doesn't lie so website age at this point is irrelevant.

    It's only going to go up with age, not down. I didn't expect you to know anything about SEO, though.

    Hello, how is it possible that your site has got a good keywordranking for watch movies?

    Your site has got just PR 0 ?

    Pagerank doesn't mean as much as most people think when it comes to rankings, but let's keep to the topic in hand please.

    Here is another new screenshot, showing yesterdays earnings ($280): http://i27.tinypic.com/2ko6px.png

    I will only keep this up for another couple of days, after which I'll be keeping it.

    CPAlead lead was added to the website late last month, as noted in a previous post.

    What has the website earned so far this month? Do you not think that's going to crush $3,000? How much did it earn yesterday? How much did it earn the day before? If those earnings kept up, that'd amount to over $6,000 in revenue per month - double what I previously stated, and you're trying to tell me it's not worth $30k? The design actually took about an hour to hook together, so good call.

    It'd be easy to monetize without CPAlead. I'm guessing you've never heard of Pinball.

    Educate yourself before making yourself look silly, please.

    insane traffic so quickly, shows that buying bulk links works wonders ;)

    Lol sorry to be off topic but I thought that this might be valuable information to potential buyers, sites like these are just as illegal as hosting the videos themselves it is no longer safe to simply link to them, just ask all the website owners their rank you've just taken when they got shut down.
