    Hello DP-Members,

    I'm selling my FreeiPhoneCover.net Project, which I started 6 months (March 2010) ago.

    Business Model: I buy cheap iPhone Cover/Cases for $0.5-$1 / piece from China and then I give it away for "free" on FreeiPhoneCover.net.

    The clue is, that I charge for shipping costs. I choosed $6.95 (4.90€) for worldwide shipping.

    Earnings: Since March 2010 I sold 24 pieces for 145 USD. If you subtract the shipping costs, iphone cases costs, shipping postage costs I made about 100 USD profit.

    See screenshot here


    Traffic: Main traffic comes from organic Search Engines and Social Networks (I started an English / German Facebook Group for FreeiPhoneCover.) I did SEO with XRumer.

    Example:

    For Keyword "free iphone cover" FreeiPhoneCover.net is on the 1st place on Yahoo.com.

    If you're interested in more traffic details, please send me a pm.

    Why do I sell it: I'm currently involved in big projects so I haven't got the time to manage the little website anymore.


    Why you should buy?: With good marketing this project will be a good source of income. I planed many things, which I couldn't realize due to lack of time, ex.:

    • Youtube Marketing
    • Facebook, Twitter
    • SEM
    • more SEO

    If you manage a good combination of these points, you'll get for sure a lot of traffic & sales.

    Other things that buyer can try:

    • Add new languages
    • Try new covers, for ex: iPhone 4G covers
    • New Payment-Method, currently I use only PayPal
    • start a blog & sell links (PageRank of this site is 3)
    • etc. think outside of the box ;)

    Anyway, if you got more question, just ask me here.

    Happy Bidding

    I buy covers / cases on DHGATE.COM. To test the business model, I bought a pack of 50 covers. If you buy there, do order only FREESHIPPING offers, otherwise, the shipping could cost more than the covers itself.
