Selling Professional Looking News Site - 142 news articles loaded up

    News site are great for SEO and Adsense as they can hit a lot of "hot keywords" that people are searching for, generating large amounts of traffic. I am selling this one to concentrate my time on a product launch (all about priotities).

    The site is beginning to hit long-tail keywords and seems to be well liked by Google.

    I have been loading uniquely written articles for the last 2 weeks and prior to that there are press releases dating back a few months.

    All posts are with pictures and thumbnails, and the professional looking "Transcript" theme is installed to full newsy effect.

    If you pay the full asking price, I will throw in a license for my article spinner "Hot Article Spinner" worth $77, or if you want make me an offer and I will consider it seriously. Remember I am looking to shift this one quickly to concentrate on my launch :)

    If you want an article writer to write news articles for you, I can give details to the buyer. She is an excellent writer, professional to deal with and very reasonably priced.

    I have not tried to monitise this site yet, but if you want to I recommend adsense due to the general nature of readers. Adsense will target ads to the context of the news on the page, so will probably be more effective than affiliate links for this site. However feel free to experiment!

    Togotutor - simple the site runs on Wordpress, so you can log in as usual and add/edit posts. The front page is then automatically updated based on the new posts and categories chosen for the post. The images shown on the front page come from the chosen 'thumbnail' which is easy to set for each post.

    It takes me about 20 seconds to copy a prepared article or press release into a post, including uploading the picture, using the thumbnail and selecting categories.
