    I am selling my profitable established free online arcade site averaging $500 per month.
    Traffic and revenue are steady.

    http://www.JustCoolGames.com

    I have already done all the hard work with link and button exchanges. Heavygames.com and kickingames.com
    has one of my games featured for the next 6 months which brings in excellent gaming traffic.

    Has a great domain name with a PR 3 and very nice design.

    Runs on a licensed copy of phpas with some custom mods like mouseover images on game thumbs, SEO friendly on members pages etc.
    Domain is regged at godaddy.com, free push.

    Gets about 3000 uniques a day, 20,000 to 60,000 page views. 20 registered users per day, 1091 total registered members.

    Has daily revenue from google adsense probly could make more with YPN.
    Has a great click thru ratio sometimes hitting double digits.

    Sep 07 - $470.75 avg $15.69 per day
    Oct 07 - $507.31 avg $16.36 per day
    Last 7 days - $134.87 avg $19.27 per day

    This revenue is net revenue as no money was ever spent on promoting this site.

    This has alot of natural SE traffic as well, google loves this site and it has tons of top 10 rankings for competitive keywords.
    #1 2338 cool games

    #10 96 cool games.com
    #11 88 cool games
    #12 86 cool games.com
    #13 82 play cool games

    Winner will be responsible for moving site to his/her own server in which I will give plenty of time.
    I will also help new owner with any support needed.

    I am only selling because I am focusing on a new forth coming site and need the money and time to put into the new project.

    Any questions, please ask.

    Starting bid $1000
    reserve is $5000
    BIN is $6000.

    Preferred payment is western union, but I am open to suggestion.

    How much are you spending on server bills? Are you running on a dedicated, or a VPS?

    Can you show traffic stats for past several months?
    Also can you show referral stats? What's the percentage of SE vs referral vs type-in?

    Thanks

    Unfortunately, the webhost I use, Servage.net, does not use cpanel with awestats or webalizer, their webstats are really lacking. It does get alot of SE traffic mostly from google. Traffic is steady for last 3 months. As that is when I started getting serious about it. I gave it a facelift, cleared out all the games, and started fresh with new games, all hand picked, there are no garbage games, just good games based on graphics, playabilty etc to keep the visitors happy and returning. Domain is 3 years old, I believe.

    It is extremely easy to add new games. I usually sit down once a week for 20 minutes and add 5 or 6 new games and thats it. The admin is very user friendly, the best script on the market imho.

    go to www.google.com
    cool games #7
    play cool games #10
    play cool games online #8
    cool rpg games #7
    these are heavily searched for terms
    and tons more game specific search words

    It is starting to rank very well with the big boys sites. SE traffic will only increase as site gets older.

    here are referrer stats:
    [​IMG]

    here are displyed pages which shows type-ins by the "/" :
    [​IMG]

    This site gets traffic from search engines, type-ins, link exchanges, and from game submissions.

    Also, a webmaster from a very popular arcade site with a pr6 and alexa rating of 2,978 emailed this morning for a link exchange.

    Bottom line, if you want a great arcade site and be a major player in this niche, this is the way to go.

    High bid is still $1000 and I had a person interested in a quick sale for $5000 and it was sold but the guy backed out last minute due to cold feet.

    Do not miss this one guys, sites like this dont go up for sale very often.

    I am also interesed to PM me the revenue from the last 6 months.
    Also, please add G analytics to your webpage and show us the results in the last 2-3 days.... this will probably clarify a lot of the questions regarding the traffic.
    Will you accept moneybookers ?

    Traffic and revenue has been steady for past 3 months aprox.
    with about 3000 uniques per day at least and $500 per month on average.
    Before that I neglected the site. But 3 months ago I overhauled it with new script, new design, and hand picked games and got serious about it. And its been making steady revenue and traffic ever since with little effort.

    I havent updated in 2 weeks and traffic and revenue are steady. Made $18.31 yesterday and $140 first week of November. Without doing anything.

    If someone takes it on and puts a little effort in, the traffic and revenue can be increased greatly and easily without question.

    I did just install G analytics, so we will see.

    $5000 is BIN, only 10 months revenue.

    It uses phpas, www.phparcadescript.com, good script and support, friendly forum too with lots mods, gamepaks, templates etc.
    The license is transferable and will transfered to new owner for free.

    I use google adsense ads on the site for revenue, and yes they are geo-targeted relevant ads.

    What I meant was does the script have the ability to choose which ad to display (i.e. ypn vs adsense) based on the location of the visitor?.
