  1. #1
    URL: http://www.arcadeshack.com
    Age of site: 4 months
    Average monthly uniques (per statcounter): 4800
    Average monthly pageloads (per statcounter): 34 110
    Average monthly adsense revenue: 54 USD
    Backlinks G/Y/MSN: 0 / 9,800 / 4,220
    PageRank: Let us estimate/assume 5
    Indexed Pages: G*/Y/MSN: 63 / 278 / 991
    *It was in the "expired domains filter" but I did a reinclusion request and got it into the index with 62 other expired old web pages. Google has not done a deep crawl yet but when it lists all the subpages I hope an increase of 25-30% of traffic.
    Where does the traffic come from: 90% from MSN and Yahoo, 10% from links.
    Number of highscores submitted: 388
    Number of games: 120
    Total played games: 111,398
    Is Gamescript license valid: Yes
    Mods and changes done since the gamescript version was bought: MySQL highscore system with many features and with custom control panel, change of design, SEO done to make the game pages rank high on the game name, modrewrite, dynamic bookmarking, dynamic tell-a-friend, simple forum integrated into the site, deleted low quality games and added over 50 good ones, rating mod with top rated list, currently playing and total played numbers.
    Uniqueness of site: There are NO other Gamescript site with similar highscore system. Many of the descriptions and thumbnails are unique. All evidences for the screenshots (more than 100) are unique and each one of them almost impossible to beat. Forum posts also unique.
    Maintainance work: It is almost self running. Updating highscores takes a little time like half an hour to update 10 scores. Last weeks has not been any new scores. Answer in forum is needed once in a while. New games can be added easily if you want.
    Reason for selling: No reason.

    I would be happy to get an honest appraisal. If I get an offer which I cannot resist I could sell it but then PM me and if I feel like I want to sell it for your offer than I will post here and make an auction. If this happens I can also provide evidence of everything you want.

    Thank you.

    I would say $2,500-$4000

    Once the site starts getting Google traffic it looks like it will receive decent traffic from it and easily double the monthly profit. Thats my guestimate.

    Sure, PM your offer.
    That sounds like it!
    I believe so to. I've learned the lesson about buying expired domains, but once it gets a deep crawl from G and lists the subpages I estimate 100 more uniques per day.
