Selling Celebrity Blog PR2 Search Engine Traffic 30k

Discussion in 'Sites' started by ghacks, Dec 28, 2009.

  1. #1
    I want to sell a blog that I purchased a while ago at Flippa. The website gets between 1000 and 1500 unique visitors per day with the majority of visitors coming from search engines.

    I have included two traffic screenshot from Google Analytics and can provide more if necessary.

    The blog is an auto-blog that posts new celebrity pictures regularly throughout the day. Everything is automated and the pictures are taken from forums where they get posted (all hosted on free image hosts and not on site)

    The blog back then (according to revenue stats posted by the old owner) made 50 Dollars with Adsense per month but I decided to take down Adsense because I did not have the time to monitor all new picture posts and we know how Google reacts when they find certain pictures on sites running Adsense (e.g. Bikini photos).

    There are several revenue alternatives but I never had the time to implement them. Possibilities include celebrity site affiliate systems, Adsense like systems or even Adsense itself, popunders or even xxx affiliate systems. Even link sales are possible as the domain is aged and has a good Alexa and Semrush rank as well as almost 7000 indexed pages in Google and more than 60000 in Yahoo.

    The domain itself is hosted at GoDaddy and I can push it to a new user account there. The site itself runs currently on a Hostgator reseller account without problems. There are no requirements but the usual requirements to run a Wordpress blog.

    I try to respond to every inquiry as soon as possible. Thanks and happy bidding.

    Are you willing to take bids on the sale, or do you want a one shot bid of $500

    Thanks for the bids, to answer the questions:

    How do you want to transfer the domain and accept payment?

    I can offer PayPal or a bank transfer. I can provide access to the data before the payment is made to provide additional security for the buyer. Escrow ok as well but only if the buyer pays the fees. Push will be made once the money has been transferred.

    I see that you have some adsense on the archives page. ( 469x 60 banner), how do they fare?

    I must have missed that, it was still an ad from the old owners Adsense account so no idea how they did far. Removed them right now.

    Edit: They seem to be fixed now.
