Established niche Blogs on autopilot: PR2 - PR5

Discussion in 'Sites' started by kokopelli, Oct 13, 2006.

    I'm taking offers on a few of my blogs. All run on WordPress 2.0.4 and are auto-updating via RSS feeds. Some also have original posts and content.

    Free push to the current registrar. I will give you CPanel/FTP access for 7 days to move the site, if you want to, or you can continue hosting with me for a reasonable fee.

    I accept verified PayPal payment only. If payment is not received within 12 hours, I reserve the right to put the site back up for sale or offer it to someone else. I reserve the right to withdraw any site or not to sell to anyone for any reason.

    Posted on multiple forums. Post SOLD to claim @ BIN. All sales are without warrantee and final.


    Thanks for looking! :)

    P.S. As you may know, Google is updating Pagerank at the moment so, depending on where you are, you may see a different PR because that data center has not yet updated. You can check the PR at http://www.iwebtool.com/pagerank_checker and it will show you PR per data center.

    Do you have stats for how much of the content on each blog is originial and how much is "borrowed" via rss? I'm particularly interested in collectiblog and gizmopimp.

    Thanks.

    I am new to running blogs and I'm interested in your collectiblog.com website. The $2.11 adsense is per day I assume? If I wanted to switch to YPN how difficult would it be?

    couple quick questions: if you wanted to also put original content on these blogs (as well as rss), could that be done with the regular "write new post" function or would it mess up the autopost system?

    also, those adsense earnings: are those per day, month, or to date?

    thanks

    Most posts are via RSS, but the following posts were made manually:

    • blogabug.com: 1 original post
    • collectiblog.com: 178 original posts, 4 comments
    • gizmopimp.com: 1 original post

    The Adsense figure is the total since I've had the blog, but (as mentioned) there was a long delay before I started to monetize it. If a little time is spent on proper marketing, your income will pick up accordingly.

    It'll be very easy to switch to YPN: a just edit the header and the sidebar widgets.

    You can compliment the auto posts with regular posts (without affecting anything) and if you wanted to convert the blog to a "real one" over time, just gradually turn some of them off.

    re: Adsense - see above.

    Thanks, but I won't sell that low for this well-index (328 pages in Google alone) PR5 site. Loads of content and incoming links too. If you're a collector, this site would be ideal - just use the existing content to build on (you can turn off the RSS feeds if required).
