    Due to the need of money, I am looking to sell my two arcades.

    Arcade 1:
    www.arcadeorbit.com

    Submitted to over 300 directories.
    Over 1,750 Games
    Over 180 Members - Growing Daily!
    Around 100-125 Uniques/Weekday (low weekend traffic)
    Daily Earnings - 50 Cents to 2 Dollars
    No Maintenance Required

    Arcade 2:
    www.gamecaps.net

    Submitted to over 300 directories.
    Over 1,750 Games
    Around 75 Uniques/Day
    Over 380 Members - Growing Daily
    Daily Earnings - .25-.50 Cents/Day
    No Maintenance Required

    Both arcades have been around for awhile. All traffic is natural. The only advertising right now is through banner exchanges that I use. However, they are not required.

    I'm looking for offers to get rid of both. Domain names will be pointed towards your nameservers. Or transferred upon request. Arcade Orbit has been around for about 1 month, GameCaps 2.

    Both are run using GameSiteScript, a very manageable arcade game script. It comes with a full admin backend. You can mass e-mail your users, etc. The only downside is that their is no customer support, but many people are willing to help with whatever your problem may be!

    Both sites are using themes that few others are using. They were free, but they are not the GameSiteScript default. This allows you to have a certain feel to your site that you won't get anywhere else. There are so many games on these sites, that you can just let them sit and grow over time. There is no maintenance required at all.

    Please post all offers here, along with additional questions.

    I could transfer the files for you. Definitely. I'm looking for offers right now.

    Please note these arcades could easily get up to $100/day combined with a YPN account. 80% of all traffic is from the United States.

    Thanks for the offer. However, right now that's a little too low. GameCaps has tons of members, and with about $15/month on Adsense. That could be $100/month on YPN.

    I'm expecting a good amount for these arcades, because they will grow exponentially over time. Word of mouth spreads fast amongst the kids, so if you're making $20 one month, it could be $30 the next, $40 the next, and pretty soon you have a fat arcade on your hands. I know what these are worth, no lowball offers please.

    Sorry Scheme, too low.

    [​IMG]

    There's the Arcade Orbit stuff. As you can see, it picked up a good amount of NATURAL traffic this week. This was only the first week back in school, and I don't think 100% of students are back anyways (for some, they go back Tuesday). There were alot of gameplays over the past few days. I did nothing to create this, it was purely natural.

    Instead of shooting down offers left and right, can you give us a BIN?

    To be honest, I figure with about $3 a day, and exponentially growing, both sites would be worth about $800 together. There are a large number of users for you to cater to.

    $800? PFT. I would like to talk to anyone buying them for that much. For me it is not so much about potienal. Arcade sites come and go. And judging by the revue it is not worth the $800 no matter how many users.

    I got a $50 offer on ArcadeOrbit, so I'm sorry, your offer has already been outbid.

    I'd note you've got images next to your adsense units in breach of the Adsense TOS. Yes, doing so increases CTR, but if you had these ad spots up within TOS limits I'd think the current returns you're getting would be less. As for YPN paying more, interesting observation, in my experience YPN pays less on every site I've ever run it on. Sure, it paid well when they first launched it, but not in my experience for a long time.

    Having said that a bid of $100 for Arcade Orbit.

    Got a closing date for the auction yet?

    I'm interested but I see your domain is registered @ dreamhost, so how are you planning on transfering the domain?
    I also have a DH account.

    DreamHost requires a 60 day transfer time so I think you'd need to wait about 20 days before I can transfer you the DH domain name. It wouldn't be hard at all though.

    The BIN for ArcadeOrbit is $300. And I'm told you can geotarget your YPN ads, earning maybe $1/click from them.

    Given you wont respond to the issue of images next to your ads, I'd advise others to read this thread:
    http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=218669
    which includes direct links to Google advising that pics next to ads are a big no-no.

    to quote Oreamnos though talking about the other site:
