POSSIBLE: Gaming site and forum for sale

    Alright, this is just a possible sale. I'm still not sure if I want to sell it or use it to market my other sites.

    URL: http://www.fpsgaming.us
    PR4
    It uses a CSS tableless template that I bought from somewhere online (slightly modified), so I'll have to check the license to see if I can include the original template.
    Averaging 350 uniques and 1,000 pageviews per day.

    Here's the "catch" - I was planning on making it a site with lots of tips and cheats for different games, but I have sold my XBox and I don't play many games anymore.
    So I had 2 games (Halo 2 and Counter-Strike:Source) covered pretty well, and I decided to make separate sites just for those games. On the Halo 2 multiplayer page and CounterStrike page, I link to my new sites. On all those internal pages I have removed their content and left a message saying "This page has been moved to xxxxx".
    But for some reason I am still getting traffic from the search engines.

    I have left the Halo 2 single player section and Halo CE section as it was. I have taken most of the AdSense off, but from what's left I am making $.25-.50 a day. When I had all the content on there, I was making $1-$2 a day.


    I am sure this is confusing to a lot of you, but just ask questions if you have any.

    There is also a forum, at forums.fpsgaming.us or fpsgaming.us/forums (it is the same forum, but you can get to it through either link). No activity right now.


    Right now I am just using the site to link to my other sites. As you can see, the homepage doesn't look too nice right now, but here is a link to show you what it would look like if you were posting news on there - http://web.archive.org/web/20060515155216/http://www.fpsgaming.us/

    That link is from the waybackwhen machine, so it's what the site looked like in March. I think most of the links work too.


    Make me offers, and I'll decide if it's worth selling.

    I guess start the bidding at $250 and BIN for $400. Those are kind of high prices, but it's sending a lot of visitors to my other sites right now, so it's still useful to me.

    Yeah I'll get that stuff put together in the morning.


    It includes everything that is on fpsgaming.us right now. I have already moved what I was going to move. The pages that I took the content off of are still there, because they still get hits from the search engines, but they link to my new sites. I can change that if somebody decides to buy this site.

    1. http://www.fpsgaming.us/images/stats3.jpg
    2 & 3. StatCounter doesn't show any search details for this site, for some strange reason. When it was showing search stats, most of the traffic was from Google, and a lot of it came from image searches.
    4. Last 90 days for the site (pics of the beginning and end of the 90 days) - http://www.fpsgaming.us/images/stats4.jpg
    http://www.fpsgaming.us/images/stats5.jpg

    I guess before I removed some content I was getting around $1 a day, not $1-$2 like I said. The 90 day average is $.79 per day.

    For some reason it seems that I am getting more traffic now, even though some content has been removed.

    Yes, the BIN is $400, but do you have any more feedback than the 1 iTrader? I checked that iTrader and it looks like you only bid on that service, you weren't even the winner.

    Also I should say right now that I have never transferred a site or domain before, so if the buyer has experience doing this, that would be great. Otherwise I'll just have to read about how to do it.

    Alright, I guess since there isn't a lot of demand for this site I think I'll keep it and do 301 redirects to my next gaming site that I'm making.
    Mods can close this.
