. Site: http://teroo.org Looking for offers on this website not sure if I want to sell. Just created the site (no revenue or traffic) and script that runs the site and I just want to see if there would be interest in the website itself. Overview: RSS search engine type of script. User search terms driven, user/self building. Lists most popular search terms on front page. Shows random search terms on front page too. SEO website urls (htaccess created). Built in optional cache for search terms for speed and to save bandwidth. No admin panel /phpmyadmin administration/. The users build the site, saves thier search's in a mysql database. Auto creates sitemap.xml, rss.xml, and urllist.txt. Logo branded already. Good sounding name. Separate keyword import tool (if you want other search terms). Set it and forget it type of website. Free hosting for a month, after first month cost is $3 a month to host. Opening bid: $100 BIN: $800 ..
Just giving this one more shot and then I will let this die until it has some stats to show. Would anyone like to make a opening bid? Here is the basic run down. I created a rss search engine that works off of 8 major websites rss feeds. Each search query can produce up to 8 content rich webpages created by the user. I have made it where each search query is saved to mysql database and the number of times that search terms were searched. That way you can have it produce the most popular searches on the front page. The way the script works is that after the search engines start to give the website traffic from those submitted web pages. The users entering query's will shape the site into what they are looking for. Producing more pages for the search engines to index and bring more traffic from that users search terms. Then in turn on the index page. There is a box of the most popular searched terms on the website. That way it will index those terms more and draw more people in for those popular search terms. In addition to having the most popular search terms on the front page, there is also a list of random search terms on the front page. It uses the saved database of search terms. Each random search term page when select will randomly select one of the 8 rss feeds to show the results for. It is google safe by redirecting using 301 redirect to a SEO valid website url. The site has already been submitted to google sitemaps (just today). To start it off it has a total of 5k web pages in the sitemap and will grow as the website user base grows and the users start to add more search terms to the script. The site uses htaccess/apache mod rewrite to enable SEO friendly urls and requires apache/mod rewrite enabled for the site to function properly. cUrl is required because the website uses cUrl to fetch the rss feeds from the remote website to show to the user (sidenote: file_get_contents is used if cUrl is not found, but fopen remote url is required to be enabled for file_get_contents to work). The rss script does do cache's to the rss query's and if a similar query is done within' a set amount of time (you can set this time frame) it will look at the cache files instead of doing the rss look up (saves bandwidth on duplicate searches and saves time by not doing sql look ups). The site creates dynamicly a sitemap.xml, rss.xml, and urllist.txt for the search engines to feed off of. For the dynamic creation of the sitemap, rss, and urllist a cron job is required to be set up. Updating each file at a certain time of the day ( I chose once a day, but when the site gets more popular I think it would be good to choose ever 1-2 hours). The website name and website url are not fixed. I added a config file that you can change this information on the fly. For instance if you want to use it upon another domain just upload, set keywords, set mysql and you're done. Also, to kick off new sites, I have added a tool that will input a list of keywords/phrases into the mysql database. That way you can set a certain theme for the site/domain to start off with. Use the great keyword tool goodkeywords to grab huge lists of related high traffic keywords. Plus, the google trends is a good place to pick up keyword lists too (most popular searches for that day in google). Personally I think this script would make a great parking domain script. It looks up the most popular RSS feeds, google news, flicker, digg, yahoo news, find articles, ebay, and others returning keyword/phrased based results back to the users. The website does not have an admin panel. The admin of the database is ran though phpMyAdmin and mostly the site is set to run on auto pilot after you set up the first keywords. (set it and forget it!!). On other forums I have seen scripts like this one make $50+ a week for the owners and that is one reason why I created it. Because I wanted to create something that would make money! I can't guarantee you will have the same results. This is a new script for me (just created yesterday). Look over the website and you will see it is worth the starting bid for it. It has a great sounding unique domain name, it is already logo branded, pretty good out of the box parking page solution for any extra domains you might have, and returns great results from 8 popular places. Thanks for looking and happy bidding. Auction Starts At the Time of This Post.

I'd be willing to go to $200 for this, but I have some concerns. 1) Your TOS are a little harsh--as is, no updates, no upgrades, etc. For example, I did a search for Pamela Anderson in News and got some results, but when I clicked on them I was taken to a blank page that said "stopped" in the lower left-hand corner. I don't know if this is a bug or not, but if it is there's no way I could fix it. 2) I don't know if I could run it without an admin panel. phpmyadmin, config files, cron jobs, etc.--it doesn't sound simple, especially if I wanted to port it to different parked domains. That said, it's a nice site, and the reason I said $200 is that happar is coming out with a complete site builder in a couple of weeks for that price that has everything--articles, rss, blog, admin, support forums, etc. So if you could offer a little support at $200 I'm in; otherwise you might be better off (as you said) leaving it up for a while to gather some stats. Again, nice site! Bill
WSFarrell: To answer your questions. I'll make sure it is in working order before I hand it over to anyone that will purchase the script. I put that in the terms of no upgrades or updates is because I don't want to promise anything I can't deliver. I don't want to say okay I will code that into the script for you, but end up not being able to do it. I can how-ever offer any updates for free if and when I update the script. The time to get things in working right is before the auction/sale is over with. If you see something that does not work in your eyes you should tell me so I can work on it and get it working. The reason for it stopping and not going to the link. I was working upon the script and at the time did not unhtml enties the link outs. Long story short take a look at it again and you will see it is working now. If you have multiple sites you would just need 1 cron timer to update all the sites after the first time you set the cron timer. You would be placing all the domains update links into 1 file that the cron timer will run. I was thinking of doing a mysql entry/file based updates to those files the reason I went with a cron timer is because it would not slow down the users experiences. By no means is this a commercial parking script. I would not suggest it for hundreds of domains. If you have around 10-30 then I would go with the script, because it is not to bad of a set-up time after you have done it once or twice. The only real long part would be to set up the sql databases on the cpanel by hand and choosing of the keywords to use for the start of it. It isn't like sedo where you can enter a domain and it will automatically do it for you. (I wish it was though and I might be working on something like that for personal parking pages and if I do then it will be included as well). Whom or What is "happar". Looking it up I see: X, X, and X, but from those pictures I can not tell if it is around the same thing as I am offering. They are asking $299 for 5 sites. My Auction/Sale is unlimited domain licenses plus the site listed in this sale to kick you off. Before I go further is that the same thing your talking about? As for proof of concept: http://phpatm.com/ I have been working upon different forms of this script for a little while testing what is good and what is not good. The pre-version to teroo.org was phpatm.com . If you take a look at phpatm.com you will see that it does not have the keyword terms on the pages. It does not have a search function and a few of the other rss feeds are left off. (Pre-version... yep), but even in this pre-version it still managed to get roughly 34,000+/- indexed listings in google (Click This) that has brough in roughly $21 this month AdSense Image Link. One of the many reason why I wanted to move forward with it. Now, the script and domain I am offering is the next gen version of what is upon phpATM. With a little time a patience index listings are possible. .
Hi....I'm a site investor that would be interested in the teroo.org site but I need to know if you will install and set up? Please advise and I will make my bid IF you will install.....Regards..Paul
I would like to know that too. That would be nice btw....Is it me or the site is taking a long time to load?
Exodus, Thanks for the answers. Here's a crude demo of the happar site, which is offering pre-order rates of $200 for 7 licences: http://w2.orditeck.com:8080/haptest/. One advantage of their site is that they facilitate translation into 8 languages, thereby multiplying your reach. Regarding your proof of concept site: 6 months of income would be $126, which again makes $800 seem high. I do like teroo, and would reiterate my $200 offer. If you really think it's worth 4 times that, you might give it a shot at SitePoint. Best of luck--- Bill
paulmeakin, imallyours: If your web hosting can do the requirements of the script then install will take 5 minutes. Yes, I can install. wsfarrell: Cool, yes a translator will be needed now. I'll have to code that into the site. One thing though I noticed is the translator on that site does not work on the returned results only for the keywords pages. hrm.. Great idea!! Loving on the comments but maybe to much work as the end result. Not sure about the 'blog' feature of that script. Would have to figure out what exactly the intention of that is and not to sure about the comment feature. Yes, it would add more pages, but something about comments is that it would require upkeep to manage the comments. Not to good if you have more then 10 sites to look after. I think I have to do a install file for it and now I am considering just selling it as a content creation script instead of a site. Thanks for pointing out that site.
