    MLB News Blog
    Network of 32 blogs all with PageRank!

    I am selling my mlb news network. It's called the MLB News Blog Network (http://mlbnewsblog.com).

    Each blog in the network has PageRank, which you can easily earn off of:
    mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    orioles.mlbnewsblog.com 2/10
    redsox.mlbnewsblog.com 2/10
    yankees.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    devilrays.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    bluejays.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    whitesox.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    indians.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    tigers.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    royals.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    twins.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    angels.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    athletics.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    mariners.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    rangers.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    cubs.mlbnewsblog.com 2/10
    reds.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    astros.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    brewers.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    pirates.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    cardinals.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    braves.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    marlins.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    mets.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    phillies.mlbnewsblog.com 4/10
    nationals.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    diamondbacks.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    rockies.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    dodgers.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    padres.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    giants.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10
    search.mlbnewsblog.com 3/10

    I haven't attepted (except once here on DP) to sell text links on the site. I have links up to my own sites and generally I can get about 2,000 inlinks within a few weeks from the network.

    Google generally has about 8,000 of the pages indexed. It gets pretty good traffic from search engines.

    I am currently placed in the following positions on the following search engines for mlb news:
    Google 12
    MSN Search 22
    Yahoo! 12
    AltaVista 12

    February Stats
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    Those stats are a little skewed. The search engine spider counts as a pageview whenever it views a page to index (it runs on a CRON). You can view the search for the blog network at:
    http://search.mlbnewsblog.com

    Those stats are ONLY for mlbnewsblog.com. It does not count traffic for any of the subdomains (ex: cubs.mlbnewsblog.com). If you would like more stats, please ask.

    The starting bid is:
    $200

    BIN:
    $1,000

    Feel free to ask if you have any questions.

    Sorry, didn't mention that.

    Revenue
    On January 23rd the site when down because I was switching servers. However, in January the site made $10.54 with Clicksor.

    Once the server was back up (earlier this month), I put YPN ads on there and so far (as of a few days ago...I don't have access to the stats on a daily basis) I had only made like $2.50 or so.

    I also made $30 this month for placing a review from ReviewMe.com on the site. It was $60, but they took half (ReviewMe).

    You can generate a lot of revenue from this site (text link sales + AdSense) if you do it right. I just need to get rid of it so I can start working on some new projects :)

    Auction will end when I receive BIN ;)
    I'll probably end it early next week (Tuesday or Wednesday). If I start to receive offers and interest, I would like to end it earlier.

    Also
    All the content on the site is generated through RSS feeds and added to the site automatically on a daily basis.

    As I said, about 1/3 of those views were generated from my actual search engine spider for the site.

    I am selling this for a $1,000 BIN because I need the money and want to start work on some new projects. With the PR built up already (backlinks) and the amount of content, you can easily start earning off text link sales.

    Also, although my iTrader is only 1, I have recently sold two sites. I am just new to this community.

    I'm PayPal certified.

    Can you tell me, are the blogs automated, or do you manually post all the news?

    The blogs are all automated. The content is added daily from different RSS feeds. You don't have to touch a thing :)

    One last question, when you upgrade Wordpress, do you just upgrade one installation, or 33?

    You would have to upgrade all 33. It's setup so each blog is a different set of wordpress files. It sounds like it would take forever, but I had to change all the database information when I upgraded my server. I just copied and pasted what I could and it didn't really take that long :p

    There are some included files that show up on each blog from one page. For example, all of the ads that are displayed can be changed from one page and they will update on every blog automatically.
