Nearly 2 Year Old PR4 Automotive Website

Discussion in 'Sites' started by GuysNightOnline, Dec 31, 2006.

    Hello. My Automotive Resources Website is now available (www.automotiveresourcesonline.com). I spent a lot of time promoting this site awhile ago and was planning to use it to help promote a number of automotive clients, but my company has moved in a different directions. If you see my present sites, you will see this site doesn't really fit, which is why I am selling :)

    The site is a PR 4. According to MarketLeap.com, the site has 5,373 indexed pages in Yahoo, MSN, and Google (combined) and 2,098 backlinks in Yahoo, MSN, & Google (combined). The past 3 months the site has gotten around 1,000 visitors a month and has been averaged around 800 visitors a month for all of 2006.

    STATS: Overview | This Year | Traffic Location

    The Google AdWords averages just about $10/month but the clicks price is very good, ranging from 25cents to $1/click and the CTR is solid. Here are the stats for the AdSense. These stats are from the first time AdSense was Added until December 30th and include about July 1st - December 31st. Nearly $60 for 6 months.

    Google AdSense Stats: PAGE 1 | PAGE 2

    I sell sitewide navigation footer links for $10/month and usually sell 4-5 and sold 2 sitewide links on the left navigation for $180 for the year. The "year" was up this month and I did not contact the owner about renewing because I am looking to sell the site.

    Selling links has been quite sporadic and usually just happens when I am selling for my other sites... I have never had problems selling links on this site, but honestly, this site has never been at all a priority, so I don't really have "proof" per say. Right now the site has 3 paid links, all which expired earlier this month.

    On average, this site makes between $90 and $100/month.

    Like I said, I have never really focused on this site, nor promoted it after the initial design. The site was registered in May 2005 and I have been the soul owner. It has been a PR4 for as long as I can remember. I spend maybe an hour a month going through the site to insure that everything is working and all that, but have never spent the amount of time needed to really grow this site expodentially.

    The content is a mix of RSS feeds, a directory, free for all articles, and some original content that was added when the site was first promoted. Ideally I will just push the domain and give you access to the CPanel and let you grab everything you need. If the sale is dependent on moving the site over, I can help in that also.

    This is a site with lots of potential and a very solid base to work from. The domain name allows for the new owner to take the site in numerous directions and build on a very solid foundation.

    I believe everything you need to bid is in this post, so please read it carefully before asking for more information. If you do find something that would be useful, feel free to ask.

    Starting Bid: $200
    BIN: $1200
    Payment: Paypal

    I do have a reserve in mind and will not sell the site for less than 8 months revenue (that's a hint). I will set an end date when we are getting in the range of the reserve.

    Thanks for reading my Greg-J inspired sales novel ;)

    $200 Bid received at WMT... Please, though, make bids here in public... If you would like to offer a BIN, you can surely do that via PM.

    Thanks!

    I have asked the bidder to make a public bid at WMT which he hasn't done yet, so feel free to bid the minimum amount. I will just have the auction listed in these two places unless it doesn't take off, then I will be forced to sell via sitepoint.

    I will keep you updated on bids from WMT or you can check the thread, linked above, to keep track for yourself.

    Thanks for all the interest. If you have any questions, feel free to keep them coming.

    Site was pending sale... Bidder at WMT backed out... So now I need to get rid of this very soon.

    Starting Bid Lowered to $100 and BIN Lowered to $800. If this isn't sold in the next few days, I'll move to SP.

    Bidding will end Monday at 10:00 PM EST

    BIN: $800

    Payment must be made via Paypal within 24 hours of bid ending unless you have talked to me to work something out. I reserve the right to end the auction early if a suitable offer is made. I also reserve the right to not accept any bid less than BIN, although I am definitely ready to move this site.

    One more quick stipulation. If you have less than 2 ITrader, please contact me before the end of the auction if you are in the running to insure a quick and tidy transaction :)

    Thanks!

    BIN has been accepted and the site is now sold. Thank you all for bidding. If you are interested in a different PR4 Automotive domain, hit me up via PM, as I have another that is for sale.

    Thanks again!
