    Website name: Karima Adebibe - The new Lara Croft
    URL: http://www.karima-adebibe.net

    Launched: like 3 days ago :D
    Traffic:
    [​IMG]

    You can check the (basic) traffic stats here:
    www.statcounter.com
    user: gueststats
    pass: mihaisguest

    Traffic came from: some sites I've submitted the link as "interesting" :p So basicly it won't last for long at these figures but still some residual traffic will go along for some time to come, even if you do nothing to continue marketing it.

    Adsense revenue for the last 13 hours:
    [​IMG]

    It is an auction lasting for 48 hours.
    Starting bid should be no less than $250.

    Winner will get the website, the domain (transfer to free NetFirms account) and a bonus of many more photos & 3 videos featuring Karima on TV shows.

    Payment via 2checkout or moneybookers ONLY.

    Well.. That's it.. thank you for watching and good luck!

    Wouldn't you like to know :D But I can guarantee it's genuine. Will let the eventual new owner confirm it :p

    Cheers

    Because I can make another one just as quick :) Besides, I like seeing cash pouring into my 2checkout account :)

    PS Summer's coming and I'd like to spend it travelling abroad.

    would like to know referrals to the site. Interesting how on the 3rd day you can get almost 6K visitors.

    Oh maaan... :) Well.. if you have an interesting site... and you submit it in places such as Digg.com (not my case) you get visitors. As simple as that.. However if this becomes a critical issue I may disclose referrals on private discussions.

    I'll think this over. I won't be bothered if the site won't sell though. It looks promising. :)

    just a hint for new owner, the stars on left on link block go against TOS and will need to be removed if you want to keep your adsense account! I know this because I was warned by adsense for using this method.

    If you want to make a sale, tell us why it is worth anything. If you are unwilling to disclose why you have a traffic spike, you most likely will not get any good responses as most will take it that the traffic isn't legit.

    Just a thought...

    ChrisB > Will remove them.. Still I'll ask google about them as they don't draw special attention on them, just blend in better. Same stars go with the menu options below as well.

    Thanks anyway.

    I was warned. But I did use small arrows and not stars. But the reason they gave me was not the arrows but that I was trying to blend the ad block in to immitate normal site links.

    You have to ask yourself this " What are those stars next to link block doing? Do they have a purpose?" ;)

    Thanks for the feedback, ChrisB

    As for why to buy this website.. Let alone the traffic and income, it's a complete website, custom made, nice layout. Ads are quite optimized, both the top CPM and AdSense. Nice niche as well, high figures in terms of searches, small number of websites covering the subject compared to other celebrities. Comes with domain as well. All that must be worth something.

    Add a bit more to that and you'll get my starting bid figure. It's not such a high figure after all.

    Thank you.

    Can you PM me too? This sort of traffic does not come free (within 3 days)! If it did...well...we probably would be having this discussion :)

    Oh, maaaaan!...

    main referrer: http://www.leenks.com/

    See the links on Monday. And for the last time: I DID NOT PAY FOR IT. It was just cool enough to be accepted without spending money. (they do get paid submissions though)

    Thanks

    Good work on the traffic - I dont think you need to reveal all your sources - people just will steal - Good luck with the sale - Still no bids - someone start it up
