100 BANS Sites - Making $200-$600 p/month, $2500 BIN

Discussion in 'Sites' started by dturnbull, Apr 28, 2008.

  1. #1
    I started these sites last year at the start of December. I outsourced the installation of BANS (http://www.buildanichestore.com) and most of them are still running on BANS 2.0 Non-EPN although I've upgraded about 20 of them to BANS 3.0 EPN. Someone could simply outsource the upgrading of the stores as it's not difficult at all (just requires uploading of files).

    BIN @ $2500. I do not want offers, or bids. $2500 is more than reasonable. I will only be selling these as a network.

    Why am I selling at this price?
    I'm a blogger, and I want to focus on blogging as I find that far more fulfilling than owning 100 affiliate sites. I'm simply not interested in adding content and promoting them and they'll probably die if that continues.

    Promotion & Content
    Very little promotion has been done. I had two of the sites submitted to directories and I had a blog on blogger.com where I mentioned a few of the sites. The only content is on one site (which is actually the highest earning) which is just a couple of articles I had outsourced.

    Every site has it's own project in a separate StatCounter.com to my own which will come with the sale. I'm not interested in going through every project and pasting the results here, so I won't. Traffic on a per-site basis is fairly irrelevant as with these sites it's strength in numbers.

    The Sites (in no particular order)


    Revenue Proof

    Payment
    I am a Verified Premium PayPal member, and have 100% feedback via eBay with 53 transactions (username: zcsales). Therefore payment is to be made via PayPal as it is the safest/most convenient way. :)

    Transferring of Sites/Domains
    You will need WHM so I can transfer the sites to your server, and the domains are at GoDaddy.com so pushing the domains is free.

    No Refunds
    The last time I sold a site, someone paid me, took control of the site, introduced himself to visitors, then gave me back the site and asked for a refund. Obviously this hurt the sites credibility so I'll be offering no refunds. I've been very clear with what these sites are, what they're earning etc.

    PM/reply to buy.

    How much did it cost to have them networked? I'm wondering because money will have to be spent to upgrade to 3.0 in order to use Ebays Partner Network.

    $200 - 40 hours at $5 per hour. You don't have to spend money. I have an 4-5 of the most profitable each day and work your way down the list. Sure, you'll still be upgrading after CJ & eBay are completely split, but you'll only lose a few dollars as opposed to $100+. :)

    Can you mention the sites that have been upgraded?

    And then list them based on revenue?

    Is there any way to get access to the statcounter stats of the sites?
    I cannot BIN without seeing referral data.

    Let me know.
    Thanks.

    I'm sorry, that is not possible. If you want I can post stats from a couple of sites, but I'm not going to post the stats of 100 different stats. All the traffic is from Google though, so it's nothing breathtaking.

    Okay, I just want to let these go. $2000 and you can have them all, which I feel is an incredible deal for what they could be. :)

    This is a lot of money for 100 very basic, non-optimised Bans stores that only deliver 200 $.If you don't update them quick, they are worthless.

    It would cost a lot of time and effort to make this worthwile.

    I totally agree with heasymo. I think It's alrdy worthless since CJ & eBay are no longer working starting today. You should move them to EPN. :cool:

    That's really not true at all. Also, so far they made above $250 this month, and have made $570 in a single month. I've said that they will need content which is why I sold them so cheap (yes, they're sold now). If someone has the motivation to optimize them then they will surely make far more than $250 per month.

    You just seem to be having a little cry about something obviously, but for sites earning more than $250 a month (with zero optimization) $2000 is not really much at all. If nothing changes the buyer should be able to recoup what they paid. If they do update the stores and fix them up they could be very profitable.

    And by the way Pristar your facts are wrong, so stop spreading lies. eBay has recently announced that the deadline will be extended to May 31st.

    Interesting network of sites. I have a few BANS sites myself.

    Don't forget to take into account the cost of renewing 100 domains (~$800-$1000 a year), and that people are reporting lower earnings with EPN than with CJ almost across the board.

    I'll buy them, I already have bans 3.0 and don't mind putting the work into converting them. So get in touch with me so we can work something out.

    thanks

    5 well optimised Bans should earn far more than 100 non-optimised.

    It is also less work to manage 5 in stead of 100! content -creating, SEO...not even mentioning the costs of domains.Why would one pay 250$ per non-optimised store and put lots of time and effort in it, while you can purchase the Bans script yourself and build 5 or 10 optimised stores for a cost of under 200$?

    Anyways if you sold it ,congratulations, but I don't understand the buyer..
