Overview

This site has massive potential for the future with excellent strength in the Search Engines the site can rank for very competitive keywords. The site also has a great amount of unique articles, many of which still bring in traffic.

The site has been virtually inactive for several months now, apart from the odd article or two each month. The reason for this is that I have been applying my time in other areas, such as University, girlfriend and other Internet Projects. It has come to the point where I know I would not be able to re-apply time to this project and I know it has massive potential so I am looking to sell it to allow someone else the benefits that it would bring.

Site Design

The website design is a Wordpress theme designed on the basis of creating a unique looking, well-monetizable, easy to navigate website with a good professional look. The design cost me $500 to get produced and is unique to this website only.

Traffic

The site when active brings approximately 3,000-4,000 unique views per month without much promotion. The site can bring far more with its ability to rank easily in the search engines. With articles being published on a weekly basis and someone who is experienced in the IM field this could definitely be multiplied ten fold.

The site's traffic currently comes from these sources;
(taken from January 2009 til December 2009)

Overall Traffic: 33,229 visits
Pageviews : 59,479

Referral 37%
Search Engines 45%
Direct 16%

I also have Google Analytics information dating back from December 2007.

The Map Overlay for traffic coming in over the past year is as following;

United States 13,225
UK 4,360
India 2,699
Canada 1,732

Search Engine Rankings

In the past I have done heavy SEO for the website to increase search engine rankings for several keyterms, many of which are very competitive.

These include;

SEO Tutorials
SEO Tips
Backlinks
SEO Blog
SEO Elite
Make a Proxy
how to make a proxy

Most of these keywords the site still ranks in the top 10 if not top 15 for.

The site has a good amount of quality backlinks to both its homepage as well as several other internal pages.

The site has been heavily on and off page optimised with good internal link structure built in.

Site Content

All of the content on the website has been written by myself (excluding the 4 most up to date articles written by my friend). The content is very professional, offers actual help, step by step tutorials, guides and tips.

The content is generally above 500 words per article and many far exceed this with 1,000 being the minimum.

Samples of the Articles are here;

This is just a small minority of the articles I have published on that website and they are unique to that website and 99% of them have not even been published anywhere else without linking back to the site.

Subscribers

When the site was established I was still very amateur with IM so I never started collecting subscribers however when I did start I only used Feedburner then I got Aweber. Overall the statistics on the site show the daily amount of subscribers and thats currently a lot lower than actual statistics because the site is not updated enough.

However actual statistics show 301 double opted in through Aweber and overall approximately 600-700 subscribers.

Revenue Streams

I started the site to teach others and til this day thats been my main objective with the odd advertisement and review. I have only reviewed products and services I have used and believe in, such as Niche Choppers.

The site does have affiliate links to services such as Wordtracker and does make a small trickle of revenue from these however without hard selling the revenue is small.

The site also makes money via private advertisements which I used to sell for $20-50 per month. This was done by targeting forums such as DP and users here.

I have also tried review me and other styles of sites which I had offers anywhere from $5-$100 for advertising and reviews.

The newsletter list/subscribers have also never been hard selled, so they are all very fresh, loyal subscribers.

Internet Marketing eBooks

The site also comes with 4-5 Internet Marketing related eBooks which I have wrote myself in the past ranging from 20-70 pages long.

These eBooks have been given away for free and for email addresses in the past and I have had some EXCELLENT feedback from people at several IM forums including this one.
