PR3 The Simpsons video blog w/ traffic & revenue

I am selling SimpsonsVideoClips.com which runs on WordPress and is a current PR3. I began this site in late July of last year but had stopped posting by late August due to lack of time & focus. Without advertising or updates over the rest of 2007, the site still averaged 1,500 uniques per month from direct type-in and Google rankings.

At the start of January I relaunched the site with a new look and using videos primarily from Hulu.com which is backed by Fox. I have posted 22 new videos over January (also posting each one by hand to Digg, Reddit and StumbleUpon) which has increased the traffic to over 2,800 uniques & 4,200 total visits.

is the site auto?

impressive serps, all legal content on there??

 

The site is not automated, I hand-picked all the videos myself. I even submitted to places like digg, reddit, and stumbleupon by hand. Obviously it could be a great move for traffic & revenue to automate the processes.

I initially posted vids from YouTube, but as Hulu launched late last year Fox got most of The Simpsons vids removed from YouTube. Hulu is financially backed by Fox and those clips are official & legal.

 

I cant see the video clips in my country / region, it says.. are there many countrys like this?

 

ok thanx
Il start at $30

 

Hulu clips are currently only viewable in the U.S. as the service is in private beta. There are still some legal vids on YouTube (like video game trailers directly from EA, etc.) and other video sites you can post for visitors outside the U.S.. I will also include the Hulu private beta account to the buyer if needed.

Current bid: $30

 

Why is adsense so low?

 

im in the uk and can see the vids

 

Not sure what you mean, I don't know why it's low. But the old WP theme I had did convert better with adsense. However, the old theme was not wide enough to fit Hulu vids and I really just threw the adsense into this new theme. That's something the new owner can tweak to improve upon I guess.

 

I'll give you $50 for it

 

Last I heard Hulu was U.S. only but may have expanded now. U.S. accounts for about 75% of visitors, U.S. plus Canada & Europe is about 85%.

Current bid: $50

 

WOW you did alot of work . . . if this site was automated i would double current offer . . .

 

It wouldn't be hard to automate it if you can find a WP plug-in that pulls from Hulu. I haven't looked for one.

It is very easy though to automate the submission process to sites likes reddit, digg, stumble, and more because there are plenty of free WP plug-ins available that let you post to these sites directly from your blog post. I have one installed for reddit already. Plug-ins are simple to install, I can help the new owner with this if needed.

 

Current bid: $65 a lot of interest in my BIN price, which I'm setting at $125. Make me an offer, I'm definitely selling to the highest offer, no reserve and I'm not 'testing the water'.

 

The auction will end tomorrow (Saturday Feb. 2nd) at 2:00pm EST since questions are still coming in.

 

$75 is my new bid

 

Current bid: $75

About 13 hours remaining, all questions & PMs have been replied to.

 

Sucks you used hulu so 0% of the videos work for people not in USA

Great site though definately good for anyone looking for USA traffic only site..

 

BIN has been lowered to $100

joecool6101 - thanks for your interest in my site, the value your post added to this thread is unmeasurable. i think i seen someone selling a CSI related site a few posts down...

 

You can cancel my bid. I wasn't aware that HULU was US only.

You should probably have mentioned that.
