    I'm selling 2 of my most profitable proxy sites - lousyschool.com & icanhide.com
    In total, both have earned me
    lousyschool made $131.90 since 21-Feb
    http://lousyschool.com/lousyschool_adsense.jpg
    icanhide made $124.22 since 18-Dec
    http://icanhide.com/icanhide_adsense.jpg

    traffic source :
    I have developed my own secret business model, 99+% of the traffic is either bookmark or type in traffic.
    lousyschool has 99.9% direct traffic.
    http://lousyschool.com/lousyschool_referral.jpg
    icanhide has 99.6% direct traffic.
    http://icanhide.com/icanhide_referral.jpg

    bandwidth used :
    lousyschool - 40.22gb last month
    icanhide - 66gb last month


    Why am I selling?
    These 2 sites are the prototype of my new business model in attracting new bookmark/type in traffic. I have created a new website last week and has managed to boost up to $5-$8 a day in Adsense. I'm selling these 2 sites to fund my new projects.

    Prospect :
    Since 99% of the traffic is through bookmark and direct typein, you can expect these proxy sites to earn you money even though you do little advertising on it.

    no CPM network is being used. But from the amount of traffic and impression, you can easily double the earning with CPM.

    I have never change the template before. So, you can expect a huge spike in CTR and your Adsense earning when you change the template.

    These 2 proxy sites are only for serious buyers only.
    Payment is through Paypal.

    Winner will get the free push of domains through Godaddy and a zipped file of both sites.
    I will announce when the auction will end later.

    Starting Bid - $120
    BIN - $300

    My server can afford 400gb transfer a month (at $9.95, the cheapest plan available at webair.com). It is not a server specially for proxy and I think you can find cheaper server specially for proxy. Anyway, you can assume it to be about $2.5, I supposed.

    I host at webair.com
    Sorry, but I cannot reveal my secret. But from the referral stat, the bookmark/type-in traffic is indeed 99% and it is 100% real. I can provide stats of the previous month if you have doubts.

    Oh, thats a shame. Traffic is really important for me. Any chance you can place a tracker on them like awstats so we can get a snap shot of at least a couple of days (providing of course its not already sold in two days time) :)

    Thanks,

    Hi, I have installed Google analytics and should be able to see the traffic stats by tomorrow. Will let the auction to run for few more days because I believe the value of the sites should be higher than the current bid :)

    meanwhile you can bid and if you are not satisfied with the traffic, you can retract your bid and the second highest bidder can win the auction.

    Here is today's Adsense earning screenshot.
    From google analytics, the traffic stat :
    lousyschool - 1549 visits, 2323 page views
    icanhide - 476 visits, 583 page views

    I cannot provide the data for absolute unique because it is very weird
    for any of the site,
    if I only show data for 30/4, the absolute unique is only 20
    if I only show data for 29/4, the absolute unique is only 10+
    if I only show data for 1/5, the absolute unique is only 0
    if I only show data for 29-30, the absolute unique is 30+
    if I only show data for 30/4 - 1/5, the absolute unique is 10+
    BUT
    if I show data for 29/4-1/5, the absolute unique shots up to 500 (for icanhide) and 1000+ (for lousyschool)

    For transparency, I can setup an access of Google analytics for you. If you are very interested, you can PM me and provide me your Google username.

    Rick

    The traffic stat is fine now and I think Google Analytics require some time to fully update the stat.

    On 30/4,
    Lousyschool has 1032 absolute UV
    Icanhide has 374 absolute UV

    On 1/5 (labor day,up till now)
    Lousyschool has 1043 absolute UV
    Icanhide has 283 absolute UV

    For those who want to have a clearer look at the stat, can PM me and I will provide you a login for Google Analytics.

    Thanks
