Selling Traffic Selling Website With Small Profit

Discussion in 'Sites' started by asmodeus, Nov 24, 2011.

    I run a large network of traffic selling websites and I'm selling off some of the smaller ones to concentrate more on the bigger sites. This site is nothing special and only had 4 sales in 3 months because I never promoted it anywhere. It gets no search engine traffic that I'm aware of and most of the traffic is direct type ins from where I have it listed as part of my network, and some of my customers went there to check it out.

    Obviously, if you promote it and get the word out then it will do better, but to help you get started I will leave it listed in my network and you'll still get a few visits from there. However, this is not a "set it and forget it" solution, as you really do need to take charge and make something of the site yourself. Don't rely on me to drive sales for you.

    The profit breakdown is straightforward:

    September - One sale for 10,000 International visits for $19.95 - 4.00 expenses = 15.95
    October - 2 sales for 25,000 USA/Can visits at $99.90 total - 37.50 expenses = 62.40
    November - 1 sale of Google pluses at 7.95 - 5.00 expenses = 2.95

    Total profit = $81.30

    My actual profit was a bit higher, as I didn't pay anything for the plus order because my outsourcing is done free through my GPT, but I'm assuming $5, as the new owner would likely use Fiverr or a similar service site.

    I've attached a stats screen showing that the traffic is there, but very low. The page views are low because the site is essentially just a one page order form with everything on the homepage, so there is no reason for a buyer to go further.

    All outsourcing into on where to buy the various traffic packages cheaply will be provided to the buyer.

    BIN price includes 6 months hosting or I can move the site to your hosting for free.

    Thanks!

    Hi , in this sort of site would the purchasers of traffic receive a stats link to somewhere where they can check on traffic status?

    For most of the packages they do, except for the click traffic ones, but I don't get many sales for that even from my bigger sites.

    Can you explain how you provide the services you offer?
    If I will buy your site, how can I give them the traffic?

    I will provide the buyer of this site with the information on where to buy the traffic wholesale. When a traffic buyer makes a purchase on the site you use some of that money to set up the campaign for them (takes 2 minutes) and then what's left is your profit :)

    OK and how can you proof the earnings of your site?
    As we see you can supply traffic, I want to see earnings, or see where the visitors came from.

    Thanks.

    The visitors come from a list of my sites in rotation via a text file I send to each customer with their login details. The links are not clickable, hence they are direct when the customers types in the one they want, as each offers a slightly different advantage over the others.

    Your earnings shot has been sent to you :)

    As the screenshot shows, there are only a couple of visits a day and around 100 per month.

    I'm throwing in a bonus because it makes sense in this case.

    The winner will get 1000 targeted visitors sent to the site to get them started right away, no matter what the final selling price is. If anyone purchases at the BIN price, then I will send them 10,000 visitors to this site or ANY site they choose, as my way of saying thanks. That alone is a $20 value :)
