    CheapCollege.com for sale. Established in January 2003
    brings about $4,000 a year.

    * Established: 12 Jan 2003
    * Monthly Revenue: $330
    * Listed: 17 Jan 2007

    Description:

    I am selling many websites. This is another one I have. Great name, great placement in search engines. Unique opportunity...

    URL: http://www.CheapCollege.com. This is a relatively high traffic site. All traffic comes from organic listings in the search engines. There are no tricks employed. During the end and the beginning of semesters the site gets anywhere from 200 to 2,200 unique visitors per day, with an average being 1,200-1,800.

    The site was written from scratch in PHP and consists of a similar system to half.ebay.com but the system is not used very much. The revenue comes from Google Adsense and Amazon Associates.

    Revenue from Google & Amazon:
    2003: no ads = no revenue
    2004: $665
    2005: $4,054
    2006: $3,685

    Traffic details for the past year up to today:

    I couldn't get the Buy search bar or sell tabs to work at all. Would this be fixed for the winner of this auction?

    Need money for my other projects and I just don't have time to make all of my websites grow.

    So, I am selling off most of the websites I own. I have listed 20 directories and a search engine already (Uquick.com). Will be listing more sites soon.

    CheapCollege.com is the highest traffic site I own. Spent several months in 2003-2004 on SEO. No blackhat tricks employed.

    Works for me. Are you getting any kind of an error message?

    Also, the system might need to be redone, currently it is not used very much as I stated in the auction. Might be the user interface or something else. There are several thousand users registered...Most are just looking to buy though.
