Selling Established Article Directory, 5 Years Old, 10,000-plus articles, Nice Design

Hello and thanks for looking, I'll keep this brief. Site is 5 years old and has 10,000+ articles scraped from various article sites on the Web. I co-developed this site with a partner over 5 years ago back when article sites weren't a dime-a-dozen. We originally custom coded it on Zope, but in January 2009 ported it over to Drupal, an excellent content management system (CMS). Site is managed via a standard Drupal admin interface (screenshot provided). If you decide to bid I'd recommend that you be familiar with Drupal, though that is not required. The site is basically a PHP front-end with a MySQL database back-end.

This is no turnkey site that was thrown together in a couple hours; dozens of hours were spent on its development, even since porting it to Drupal. Here is a brief list of recent features added:

-Latest version of Drupal 6 and all modules

-No hacked code. Drupal core and modules all upgradable to future versions

-User submitted articles and comments

-Advanced recaptcha to prevent spam bot logins and posts

-Fckeditor for rich text editing of article posts

-Adsense module with optimized ad locations. Only requires update of publisher id in one place.

-SEO optimized paths and meta tags

-XML sitemap module with autosubmit to google, msn, yahoo, ask and more

-Modr8 module to allow easy moderation of new content

My partner and I have never had time to market or grow this site and we still don't, hence why we are selling it. Traffic is pretty much all organic, with the exception of a few backlinks and some direct (return) visitors. Site currently has 249 pages listed in Google's index and most traffic comes from there.

If you're wondering about the domain name, it was intended to phonetically be "Rate 'Em", we were planning on developing several "hot or not" type ratings sites on it but that never came to fruition.

Revenue earned through AdSense, see screenshot. $22 to date though that's just my half (my partner and I rotated our ads 50/50) and he earned about $23 so figure $45 total revenue in 5 years. For traffic stats see screenshots from StatCounter and Google Analytics. Google Analytics was just added a year ago hence why traffic numbers are low, I mainly provided the screenshot to show average bounce rate, time on site, etc.

Bidding starts at $100, reserve is slightly higher than that. BIN is $400. Feel free to post here or PM me with questions.

 

In your keyword report i see that only robots search you site, look at words "login or register to post comments" "link building service" and "r8m" it's name of your website.
And site does net work
