    Hey Everyone

    I have had this templates website running for approximately 2 months now. Since it is my 3rd year at university I have just found myself a work placement so will have no time to manage this site so for this reason I am selling it. The traffic rate is not great but the conversion rate is. almost 10% of people who visit the site purchase from it which has resulted in me having 94 sales in May alone, in June the conversion rate was much higher. So here are the stats and other relevant information you need to know.

    URL: http://www.website-architect.net

    May
    Uniques: 923
    Sales: 94
    Net Profit: £1786.94 ($3567 USD)

    June
    Uniques: 1615
    Sales: 319
    Net Profit: £6064.19 (£12,105 USD)

    Stats can be seen here: http://www.website-architect.net/stats.jpg

    Not much has to be done to keep up with the site, just the regular updates and so on, the service is now fully automated so sales can be done whilst you sleep.

    Can potential buyers please PM me so I can provide the relevant proof of revenue and so on.

    By looking at how much the site earns I'm sure you can all work out an estimate as what to bide, I'm going to start the bidding low though.

    Bidding Starts At: $500
    No B.I.N: Looking towards the sites 2 - 3 months revenues worth at least
    Payments will be made using escrow.

    For more information please do not hesitate to contact me.

    forget work placement. If your making 12k a month from just 2k uniques, you need to keep working with this site and retire early.

    Eshop if you read carefully their were only 2 members that were unhappy, 1 of them was because they payed by eCheque and i wouldn't activate the account until the cheque was cleared and the other because some template files were down.

    So can you please stop spoiling my threads.

    lol Blacke i wish, my family wouldn't understand this internet thing I'm going to have to do things the traditional way unfortunately.

    Thanks

    People, after looking through some of granturismo's recently threads I would highly recommend that no one do business with this person. Just a break down of some recent threads with quotes from the OP:

    £1 for many templates
    "im selling the template pack in my sig for just £1, post on the thread if your interested"

    buy my site content
    "i am looking to sell just the site content which means you will get
    - all web pages
    - all templates
    i am selling this for £30 ($60)" <- Referring to this site which he is apparently aiming to sell for $50k~ [Hah]

    templates site for sale - £1900/month [21st June]
    "During June i did not promote the site very much got 1500 uniques so far and have made £380 ($800) from no marketing at all!" <- How did you manage to make £4,600 in five days?

    Free iPod Video + Templates Pack
    "items are shipped after 30days, this is because of our 30 day money back gurantee. If i was to ship after 10 days, people could alwayz ask for a refund keeping the ipod and geting their money back thus leaving me without profit. So i can only ship after 30 days" <- You also dodge the 30 day window for dispute on paypal, eh?

    I've added a few comments but I have to run, I'll let you guys decide.

    venturefox let me just reply to some of the things you mentioned:-

    £1 for many templates

    A Total of 5 people have purchased from here and all prices are shown clearly on my paypal account.

    buy my site content
    This is simply the site content which are all the templates and also web pages, theirs no domain or hosting, most the work will be done by the buyer. Also no-one bought this item!

    templates site for sale
    $800 was made from no marketing, the rest of the money was made from me marketing the site which i failed to mention on that thread.

    Free iPod Video + Templates Pack
    The paypal dispute policy can be claimed for 45 days and not 30. Which emans i can deliver on time and the buyer has approx 2 weeks to claim anything.

    Please do not make assumptions from things without any proof for it. Thnaks

    About the Paypal disputes, you will win all of them since Paypal doesn't support virtual items anymore.

    All of this is pretty irrelevant, you've shown what your willing to do for a couple extra bucks. Prove me wrong and post earning stats/screenshots here for the site you are selling.

    $12,000 revenue on how much cost? what's the actual number you can pocket minus hosting, marketing, etc.

    also if you indeed make $12,000 per month, why would you be willing to give that up for $500? or $1000? or $10000? Call me stupid, but over $300K a year is alot of money... I wouldn't give that up for anything less than 3/4 of that as a one time payment

    bidding starst at $500, i started the bidding low on purpose. Like i mentioned i have a work placement i need to finish off my degree and so i won;t have time to manage the site.

    I never said im selling the site for £10,000, people have given me prices they'd pay on PMs and im just going to pick out the best.

    The amount of money i must have spent on this site was probably close to £1000, Spent very little on advertising thus the low number of uniques.
