    That's right, you read correctly. Over 264 THOUSAND pages in this website.

    www.ChicagoYellowDirectory.com is a Yellow pages site with a database of over 264,000 business listings, each with their own details page (View Sample Details Page)that includes business name, address, city, state, zip, phone number, a google map and an Ajax rating feature.

    The site is brand new, so assume no traffic or income yet.

    Google eats these sites up, tons of content to get indexed. these type of sites are incredibly good at getting longtail keyword phrase traffic. People searching for a phone number or an address, or a business name. Not overused keywords with tons of competition, but thousands and thousands of unique keywords and phrases with limited competition for them.

    The site has adsense ads blended in well for a great click through rate.
    The script is a custom script and also comes with an admin panel so you can add, edit, or delete business listings.
    SEO friendly urls: www.ChicagoYellowDirectory.com/Restaurants.html

    Site also comes with a well written unique article about Chicago on the homepage plus a "What's New in Chicago" news section, that is automatically updated with fresh Chicago news daily.

    Up-sell to businesses - since you have the name, address, and phone number for every business in Chicago with this site, you can contact them and offer them an upgraded business listing with full description, website links, photos, etc. Yellowpages.com charges huge monthly fees for an upgraded listing. Undercut their fees and offer these businesses an affordable quality listing for a fraction of the cost.

    Comes with installation on your cpanel server if needed.

    Nice site. Where did you get the business listing information from? Did people submit this or did you use a database? Which database. I'm pretty interested and will probably bid once you get back to me.

    Thanks, the business listings are in a database. I own large amounts of databases.

    ok, to sweeten the deal, I'm going to throw in www.SpringfieldYellowDirectory.com for free to whoever buys this site at the BIN price listed above.

    Chicago is the 3rd largest city in the United States, and Springfield is the Capital city of Illinois. www.springfieldyellowdirectory.com comes with over 29,000 business listings.

    Great opportunity to get 2 huge sites for the price of one.

    The last offer I did like this went fast, so if you are considering, now is the time before someone else gets it.

    I will also install this on your cpanel server if you need me to.
    I am always available for questions and help.

    I'm interested.. How much revenue does this make, and also how many uniques/month does it get?

    Thanks!

    as mentioned in the op, this is a brand new site, so no revenue/traffic yet.
    Besides monetizing with adsense, you can upgrade existing businesses for whatever you wish to charge.

    Lets say you upsell just 5 businesses per month, and you charge them only $99/year, that's $500/month, and if you continue promoting the site for them, they will continue to renew each year. $99 is nothing for most businesses for advertising. Many spend several thousand on print yellowpages per year.

    I will give you the BIN for the 2 sites - can you provide the header file so I can remove the beta symbol?
