Image Host For Sale - Easy Money Maker - Low Price

General Information:
The site is an advanced image host, allowing members to upload multiple images at a time without registration, and once the images are uploaded the users are given linking codes so that they can embed the images/thumbnails into various places (myspace, ebay, forums, websites etc...). I started the site at the beginning of the month, and traffic has been built steadily through myspace bulletins, word of mouth, and also a large internet forum has also taken to using the uploader. Currently, there has been little to no SEO, with the exception of a handful of links posted in some directories.

Revenue:
By running two AdBrite ads on the image viewing page (when users wish to view the fullsize image they are directed to a viewing page containing the ads and the picture), the site has managed to generate $40.XX for the month:


However, after viewing the forums it seemed that most revenue was to be earned from AdSense, and I switched over just the other day - Here are the earning stats for yesterday:



Why I'm Selling:
Well, the main reason I am selling the site is to fund my next project which will also need all of my time dedicated to it if the new venture is to work.

Handover:
I haven't sold a website before, so I'm not totally sure about the best way to do this. I think I will just .zip up the website so it can be unpacked and uploaded with minor modifications (I will include instructions and help you get it all up and running). I will then forward the domain on. So basically you will need your own hosting to run the site (If there is a better way to do this, I am totally open to ideas).

Bandwidth:
The site uses roughly 15-25gb per month

Users:


Basically, most users come from either forums or myspace at the current time. Included in the sale is a myspace account with a hundred or so friends. I basically used myspace as a way to generate some traffic by posting bulletins or sending messages about the services offered on the site.

Price
Well judging by the revenue the site is making, I feel the site is worth upwards of $450, however a wise person once told me it's only worth what people are willing to pay, so I'll set a starting price of $50 and see how the auction goes from there. I would prefer money order as payment, as I'm hesitant to go with paypal after hearing a few horror stories. If paypal is your only option, PM me and I'm sure we can work something out.

 

I uploaded an image to test. After uploading, the "Get the links for this picture" link didn't work. Also, the "Send this picture to a friend" link didn't work.

Have these links worked before ? And what is the ending date & time for this auction ?

Thanks.

 

both work fine, however popup blockers must be disabled (I just retested them both then)

 

$100 dollars is the current leading bid.

 

$150 here. Can you PM me referral stats?

 

Does the script have a valid license? Just curious.

 

Sure does, it's running Extreme Photo Host - however I've made a heap of modifications to make it simpler and much more user friendly.

 

nice site and who are you hosting with?

 

Currently it's thrown on my dreamhost account, a better host would probably be necessary if you wanted to gain a significant traffic boost.
