Established Niche Myspace resource site (Christian Theme) PR4 - Revenue

Hey guys,

I am looking to sell another one of my established myspace resource sites. It's over a year old and has done well for me for a long time. I've kind of neglected it since I put it up and it has fallen a bit in terms it used to rank #1 for but still doing well and should be easy to turn around for anyone that knows anything about SEO and/or has a bit of time to update the site some. I haven't really added much since I put it up so I assume lack of updates also factors into sliding rankings.

I have this posted at SP as well where more info is posted.

link sales:
10 spots for $15-20 a month = $150-200 a month

CPA (azoogle, maxbounty and such):
I don't have separate tracking for these but would guess it makes maybe $30-50 a month. The main two offers that do well are Christian ringtones and various Christian dating offers.

auctionads:
Not real sure on this one either. I would say max of about $10 a month but to be honest auctionads took a dump after it was sold and tracking has been off for the longest time. I wouldn't be surprised if they were ripping people off by not crediting clicks. I actually planned to take it off months ago but I guess that shows how lazy I have been with the site lol.

adultfriendfinder (BigChurch christian sub site) :
another I don't really have tracking for but have had on there for a while. I would guess it would be lower to maybe $10-20 a month. I am signed up on the percentage plan there so if they renew their memberships I always get a cut. Also, I haven't taken the time to change it but my rep told me in the past that a large majority of the signups I have gotten were female which was kind of strange because the ad only displays female personals/pics. So it might even do better if it was either mixed with both female and male or just male even. BTW they have a "religious" dating site that is being linked to...as I am sure you would assume, the regular adultfriendfinder wouldn't be the best match for a christian site lol.
Traffic Details:

Traffic has been down as I lost rankings due to other sites out SEO'ing me. I still get a solid level of loyal users and assume it wouldn't take too much SEO to get it back at the top but I just don't know enough about SEO to know for sure.

Here is the breakdown of where traffic comes from (feel free to request other specifics if needed):

11.02% Direct Traffic
22.20% Referring Sites - about 4% of this is internal links but are being counted as referring because of the interestial ads showing from fastclick after the ad fowards them back. Of the other referrers listed about 9% comes directly from myspace profiles and comments from user posted content.
66.64% Search Engines

 

I've gotten several PM here and on SP asking what the BIN is. I'm still not set on a specific BIN price to be honest. If you are interested I am open to any offers for a BIN so just send an offer rather than asking if I have a BIN heheh .

Surprisingly I have also had a couple people interested in buying but advised me to actually keep it and just pay someone to help with SEO and updates if needed. I am still considering that as well but could still use some cash. But regardless I appreciate the advise and tips so thanks to those two people!

 

Please PM me the url

 

The URL is in the post above...though maybe not obvious and easy to see lol.

the site is: SpaceOfFaith.com


The auction has been extended and a Bin of $5,000 was added. Let me know if you have any questions or want to make any offers.

 

Just under 24 hours left. In talks with a couple people but only one seems serious so far. Open to more BIN offers for anyone that is actually interested.

 

For those that asked for updates, I have indeed extended the auction a bit.

I also lowered the bin by $2k from what I had the reserve set to. If you need to know the reasons why I lowered it since "just could use the extra cash" reason never seems to be enough for people lol, I posted it in my latest post in the SP auction.
