    Here I am selling my biggest online money maker myspacegeek.net because I am sick of managing it and am planning on leaving this website business. I would like to go back to college and focus more on that. Also I owe people money that I would like to take care of.

    Summary:
    I started this website back in march 2006 when the myspace resource rush was taking place. It got moderately successful I guess. The site was receiving 19,000 uniques per day as of mid july. Then myspace decided to block our URL for unknown reasons. Traffic has now dropped down to around 5,000-7,000 Uniques/day (Mostly google traffic) since we are not currently recieving much traffic from myspace anymore. The new owner could easily fix this problem by just setting up a redirect domain and I am sure the site could be what it used to be.

    Content:
    Over 596 Layouts that I have purchased from designers.
    Hundreds of Comments
    Tons of Purchased Flash Generators
    and much more...

    Traffic: Currently around 5,000-7,000 Uniques per day. (Mostly from Google Rankings)

    Stats: http://extremetracking.com/open?login=mysgeek

    Revenue Shots
    Adsense - Have made a killing up until yesterday when the ads started not to display. I have emailed adsense to see what I can do to get this resolved.
    ValueClick - To my surprise valueclick has worked out quite well for me.
    Also been making a few hundred a month from link sales.
    Screens Url: myspacegeek.net/sale/

    Pagerank: 5
    Backlinks:

    Starting BID: $1,000
    Buy it Now: $9,000

    I will bid 1k. I wonder if google consider your new myspace layouts to be too much like porn for their adsense program? Maybe its the quality of the traffic that bothers them?

    Thanks for the Bid. I would not think it would have to do with the model layouts since all the ladies are still covered up, although if they email me back and tell me thats the case, I will remove them asap.

    I do not think it has to do with traffic quality since majority of my traffic is now coming from google itself and the keywords are highly taargeted so you would think it would convert for the advertisers.

    I will bid 1100.
    Where are your images hosted?
    Prolly not showing the ads because they are listed under "cool links" which is against the TOS.

    All the layout images are currently hosted at photobucket. I forgot to mention, the buy will also get the 2 photobucket accounts I have.

    I agree, thats what I am thinking it is.

    Thanks for the bids everyone.

    Yea yesterday. I am assuming they do not answer support tickets on weekends.
    If I do not hear anything by later tommorrow, I will try calling them. They know I have always been willing to comply with them in the past.
