[for Sale] High Traffic High Revenue Proxy Network

Discussion in 'Sites' started by slava, Aug 26, 2006.

  1. #1
    I am selling a high traffic, and high revenue network of proxy sites. There are 5 sites in teh network. THey are self sustaining sites. Traffic is growing based on word of mouth, I do no advertising. I tried getting sponsored links at proxy.org a month or two ago but saw an increase of only about 30 visitors from that site as apposed to regular listing so I did not renew.

    Traffic Stats (Page Views):
    June - 8,218,703
    July - 9,174,967
    August - 5,614,270 (Estimated total August page views 7,251,766)

    Revenue Stats:
    June - $789.51
    July - $1421.91
    August - $1657.40 (Estimated total August revenue $2140.81)

    I suffered a harddrive failure which had 48 hours of downtime on one server, and netowrk issues which had 18 hours of downtime on both servers in August which explains the lower traffic, I lost significant traffic and revenue as both events happened back to back in the first days of August. Traffic has steadily grown since then and is at its peak now.

    The oldest site on the network was created in May 2005, the newest one in January 2006. I started using Google Analytics in late May which is why I only posted 3 months of traffic stats. At the same time I started documenting the revenue in detail. I have daily impressions counts, daily clicks, daily eCPM, and daily earnings for all teh ad networks I used on the proxy network to monetize the traffic dating from start of June.

    I am not selling the network because there is somethign wrong with it I am selling because I am starting a new company and would love some extra money to help market it. I can do with what I have but would like to get the extra capital, if I don't get the right offer I will not sell. With a steadily growing network with revenue increasing by over $600 in last 3 months there is huge potential.

    The proxies run a custom modified version of CGIProxy, the scripts are less resource intensive, less processing power, less memory, and less bandiwdth is consumed if compared side by side to an out of the box CGIProxy script with same traffic.

    I have the proxies hosted on 2 dedicated servers with LayeredTech, you could probably get away with hosting them on just one, but I never tried it. I pay $234/month/server here are the specs for the servers:

    AMD Dual Opteron 246
    4096 MB RAM
    73GB SCSI HD
    CentOS 4.X_64bit
    Direct Admin
    10Mbps
    2000GB bandwidth

    I gete the servers cheap cause I am a LT reseller, I can forward the servers to you for same rate that I get them.

    I will help new owner set everything up, if you would like to host somewhere else I will transfer the proxies to your new server. I will setup and configure server to optimize for the proxy.

    Please PM me or post her with offers. I will provide screenshots of all traffic and/or revenue stats if I accept a bid to the buyer, I do not want to make any images public. All stats posted are accurate and not approximate figures I have screenshots to back them up which I will provide if I do accept a bid.

    I don't want to make the URLs of the proxy sites public, if you would like the URLs please PM me.

    If you have any questions post here or PM me.

    I got a few PM's but keep them coming.

    I had someone ask me about a BIN price.

    I am posting a BIN of $40,000 feel free to make lower offers.

    This is not an auction I am merely looking for offers and I am under no obligation to sell unless you call BIN.

    I also got a few questions about payment. I preffer escrow.com due to the large amount of money and such an important transaction. I will split fees with you if you choose escrow.com.

    If you opt out of escrow.com I will accept PayPal if you have a verified US account, or check if issued by a US bank, but I will require some kind of written agreement thats signed if its a check payment.

    Are these only 5 proxy websites in the network?

    Please send me revenue details, traffic, referral and all.

    BTW your BIN is too high...5 sites making $2000 a month can be sold at $20,000.

    Thanks

    cddinc and stormy I sent you a PM with the information you requested.

    I didn't send you refferals because I will post them here:

    86.59% of traffic is direct from typeins and bookmarks
    6.59% are internally from inside, I only have two functional proxies, one on each server, the others are just frontends to the script located on other domain)
    2.45% of traffic is organic traffic from Google
    0.34% of traffic is organic traffic from Yahoo
    0.34% of traffic is from proxy.org
    0.31% of traffic is from bypass.cabspace.com
    0.30% of traffic is from econsultant.com
    0.12% of traffic is from eespc55:8002 (I'm using Google Analytics, this is not an address but its what it is reporting)
    2.96% of traffic is whats left over so I'll designate it as other.

    As I stated in my original post I will provide screenshots to the buyer if I accept their bid.

    Also stormy if you spent a few minutes reading my first post you would notice that for last 3 months revenue has been at a consistent increase of almost $700 monthly, at this consistency $40,000 is approximately one years revenue. And if your just going to look at the last month then thats upto you but this is my sale thread and I set teh BIN to what I feal the BIN should be. If you don't agree with my logic feel free to start your own sales thread and sell one of your sites at whatever you want.

    For everyone else I want to make it clear that I am accepting offers below BIN, please make an offer if you are not interested, although I do not guarantee I will accept your offer if it is below BIN I will accept it if its the right price.

    Please keep your views to yourself, this is a sales thread you can post an offer or you can post questions, if you want to relay some information to me that doesent fit one of those two you can PM me, but stay out of the sales thread.

    All PM's replied, please post or PM any questions.

    Is this homemade rules? Please gimme an official DP link to this rule; i will be glad to edit/remove my previous post. For your info, this is not SitePoint.com.

    By the way, if you want to increase starting price, just say so. I got fed up with some sellers like banra who suddenly claim "site is sold" while i'm the highest bidder. This explains "i'm skeptical with ghosts bidding."

    This is not a homemade rule. It's a matter of professionalism and courtesy.

    Thanks PalSys, you are absolutely right, I asked for people to post here to get more info and if they have questions, you don't fit in either of these categories and are questioning my integrity. I am not banra and I am posting highest offer to inform other bidders that they need to bid higher. This is afterall a sales thread and it is pertinant information to the sale.

    You are no longer welcome in any of my sales threads because of your poor professionalism.

    SNap3 I'll send you URL in a sec.
