    URL: CDRank.com

    ( to view the site, go to http://70.86.180.194/~cdrankc/
    - I never changed the DNS for the domain itself, but I did move the
    site to my hosting at the address above, and had a programmer
    work on it there.)

    Age of site (months):

    Monthly revenue: N/A.

    Revenue details: N/A

    Monthly page views: N/A - never had the time to launch it.

    Traffic details: N/A.


    Description:

    * Search - Artists, Track or CD
    * Fully working submit script - authorised via SQL (takes about 30 seconds to
    learn how to use?)
    * Fully working rating system, code editable to add top 5 artists / genres, or
    increase the list to say 10 or 20 top CDs / artists / genres
    * All completely custom coded (so the script is EXCLUSIVELY yours to use,
    resell or do whatever you want with - nobody else has rights to it).
    * Easy to use admin panel for authorizing, editing, and deleting CDs!
    * The layout was supposed to be custom, but someone on another forum
    mentioned they've seen it elsewhere, so it's not totally unique - however it
    does use Ajax - and looks very smooth!).

    The current hosting account it is on is quite slow, and it should work faster
    on a better one (it's a simple reseller account with hostgator which has quite
    a few sites on it). The only slow activities are related to loading a large part
    of the database (e.g. a large list of CDs), other than that - the site is VERY
    smooth and lightning fast, as you can see.


    I purchased the site without any CDs inputted into the DB, and it was designed in
    such a way that users were meant to submit CDs, which you can then authorize
    through the admin panel.

    The CDs aren't sorted in Genres at this point, but I'm looking into doing that -
    should be an easy fix.

    I have to note that the CD database is from FreeDB.org and I do recall some sort
    of recognition should be given for that (something along the lines of a link back to
    them, or perhaps not even that) - do check on their site for more information,
    but I can help if you're having trouble looking into that.

    Ideas for developing and monetizing the site:

    1) Adding a forum to discuss all sorts of music types and CDs (I know this one is
    obvious, but figured I'll include it anyway)

    2) Adding links to Amazon affiliate programs or other affiliate programs for selling
    CDs.

    3) Using Mod_rewrite to simulate hundreds of thousands of content pages with
    the CD Details.

    4) Incorporating a CD Cover script (if you need one of those, I've seen them for
    sale here and there, and I could help find them) so that clicking a specific CD
    would provide you with the option of trying to find a matching cover from Amazon!

    Starting Bid: $150
    BIN: $550

    Looks a bit unfinished for $150...

    Also how can you have SEO friendly URLs when the content loads in an iframe?
