Suggestions for what to do with website

    I created the site collegesucks.net 7 years ago as a professor review site - it got decent traffic for a few years, made about $50 a month in adsense revenue, but around 2003 other professor review sites popped up and people mostly quit visiting (went down to about $15/mo in adsense).

    A few weeks ago I redid the site with Wordpress, through in some RSS feeds as content, and have let it run. I'm not making money (maybe $.25 a day) on about 200 page views.

    So...any ideas as to how I can transform this and make some money? I don't really have the time to work on the site much, so I need something mostly automated.

    I also though about selling the domain, but it seems like I could do something with it...high page ranks, old domain, etc.

    Any ideas?

    I don't think automated is your best bet.

    To get the SERPs the key is unique content.

    As with the theme of your site I would try to capitalize on user generated content. It is easy for you and creates tons of unique content. Just be careful to protect yourself from spam and dangerous content (SQL injections and such)
