HUGE FANSITE / Huge Revenue/ CHEAP PRICE

Up for sale is the largest and most popular Coheed and Cambria fansite. They are a rock band signed by Sony BMG / Columbia Records and just released an album a few months back; currently going on a nationwide tour with Linkin Park, which is likely to send them into even further stardom.

There is a main site/blog at http://www.cobaltandcalcium.com with over 500 pages of unique posts and unique content.

The forum is on http://forums.cobaltandcalcium.com using vBulletin and has over 25,000 registered members and over 800,000 posts. It is a very active forum with lots of dedicated members and growing every day.

The site is supported by both the artist and their label, as they have linked directly to the site from their homepage at coheedandcambria.com Click their message board and it goes straight to us : )

Another awesome feature is that the site is a Google Authority site. Type in cobalt and calcium into Google and you'll see the extra links it gives us! That means we're extremely well liked : )

Sale also includes a custom designed myspace page with over 6,000 friends; great for marketing or sending out updates about the site or whatever.

The reason I am selling is because I need the money for personal reasons. Plain and simple: I need to cash out.

To recap: You get the main/site blog, the entire forum, the myspace page and any/all files associated with the site.


Revenue:

Between $300-$400/month in contributor upgrades - Gives user a contributor status, which makes their forum name green, custom user titles, custom avatars, and more. It only costs them $5, but I'm sure they'd pay more.

About $600/month from Adsense. That was last year when the site was getting about half the traffic. Haven't run it since.

The site will easily make $1,000 a month if adsense is added again. I'm looking to sell site for $4,000. With 30% upfront and 70% after I transfer domains.

Payment will only be with MB.


Accepting offers at around $4,000.

 

why not using adsense now ?

 

We wanted to make the site more user friendly.
