    Looking for a smooth and quick sale.

    You are bidding on the domain and contents of article-frog.com

    The site is currently hosted on a server with my other sites. If you would like to move the site I can give you 30 days to do so. However, if you would like me to continue to host the site for you (cpanel) I can do so for a small monthly fee.

    The domain is hosted with koredomains.com, I will supply the winning bidder with the auth code for transfer.


    Now more about the site itself:

    Site has more than 30k articles.
    There are almost 5k members.

    The site is based on wordpress, so it is very easy to run.​


    Revenue:

    Advertising Manager is installed and support is available for: Google Adsense, AdBrite, Adify, AdGridWork, Adpinion, Adroll, Chitika, Commission Junction, CrispAds, OpenX, ShoppingAds, Yahoo!PN, and WidgetBucks.

    Active Links is installed and can support contextual ads throughout the site.

    *This project really got put on the back-burner as I have become super busy with other projects, however - everything is in place for you to quickly monetize the site for profit.


    Other great features installed:

    Article Import
    - Plugin to mass-import articles from zip file uploaded by admin.

    Ping Optimizer
    - Saves your site from getting tagged as ping spammer.

    RSS Power Plus
    - This plugin will, when a new post is published, submit the rss feed for this post only (not the entire domains feed) to the configured RSS Aggregators websites, including where applicable the tags used in the post.

    Email Users
    - This plugin allows you to send out announcements to members.​


    The Logo:

    The site logo is 100% unique. It was actually designed by a DP member.​


    Reason for selling:

    I have other projects that are taking up my time and I really don't have time for this one.​


    Bidding & Payment:

    Starting Bid: $250
    Increments: $50
    BIN: $1200​

    *** Payment via PayPal ***

    Hi, do you have any traffic stats please?

    Referring sites? Search engine keywords? Search engine rankings?

    Is there a reason why it's still PR0?

    Thanks :)

    Correct, no revenue at this point. Reason being, I had to put this project on hold as I have others on the go - Id rather sell it than just let it sit.

    There is plenty of content and resources installed to quickly monetize the site.

    The site is currently PR0, correct. The PR has jumped around pending on how much time I was putting into it. A good thorough round of social bookmarking would likely pick things up again.

    Traffic is stated in the site specs at the top of this page.

    Keywords and phrases vary, lately though there are many "health" "insurance" "leads" refers from search engines.

    82.9% of traffic is from google.
    16.3% of traffic is from google images.

    Other traffic from digg, stumbleupon etc.


    Thank you all for your interest.

    You list the content as being unique...so all of these articles are unique?

    Is that right?

    For the most part, the content is unique. I am sure though that some people may have submitted the same article to us as they have elsewhere.

    I don't think it is mostly unique. You said 30,000 articles, but your page index only 900 something in google?
    http://www.google.com/#hl=en&source=hp&q=site:article-frog.com&aq=f&aqi=&oq=&fp=3536bfc47f33e0c8

    how many article submitted and publisher join your website a day?

    You might want to reduce your bid price so there might be I am willing to bid.

    Thanks,

    Appreciated if you can clear some of the question.

    There are 30,878 articles currently.

    I haven't been monitoring the site daily; as I said above I haven't really had the time for this site.

    The minimum bid is $250, I have no plan to lower that. If I don't receive an offer for at least $250 I'll just place some ads and set the site to run itself.
