Ecommerce Store PR3 Making $230/month

    I am going to school and do not have the time to manage my website anymore. The website is PR3 and this sale includes a PR 2 blog. The current total profit is around $230 per month. tinyurl.com (masked link for http://www.dashtrimkitstore.com/)

    If the buyer has time to devote to SEO the site is currently at #30 on google for its main keyword "dash kits" and can easily be taken to the first page and increase the profit exponentially. This would be a great flip for someone also.

    What is it?

    This is an automotive based store that sells dash kits for cars, The products are dropshipped from a supplier that will be given to the buyer of the website. The site is based on CRE Loaded B2B shopping cart and has been customized with a drop down populating menu, SEO url's, Quick and Easy Checkout and many other upgrades.

    What is required to run the site?

    Right now I do not have time to answer the phone calls or process orders over the phone, so if someone had time to do this sales would increase by twice as much. It takes a total of about 5 hours a week to run, the site rarely needs updating so the only work that is required is processing orders and answering the phone and SEO work.

    How much does it make?

    The site has 3 different sources of income

    Product Sales: The total profit per month by sales on average is $120 which is only selling 3 dash kits per month, this could easliy be increased if the phone calls were answered and a little time was spent on SEO.

    Adsense: between $60-$90 per month

    Link Sales: I just started selling links, but have been selling them for $10 a month, i have sold 2 links already but you could easily sell 5 or more.

    Also note some sales are made via Authorize.net but i dont have screenshots of that.

    Conclusion

    If you have the time to answer a few phone calls and do some SEO this site can turn into a cash cow profiting high $XXX to low $XXXX with no problem at all. I dont have time for these because I am in college so thats why I am selling. Payment will be through Escrow.

    Starting Bid: $1,000
    Bidding Increments: $100
    BIN: $2,600

    I reserve the right not to sell the website if the reserve is not met.

    maybe your niche sucks, I have a site that gets 45 UV/day and does about $45 a month so not that much of a stretch

    interesting site

    $60-$90 per month is only adsense

    its $230 per month total.

    and usually forums are harder to monetize because of low CTR.
