Description
I am actually selling two websites. One is a niche videos site; African music videos and the second is a wallpaper site. I am just looking to get out of maintaining websites.
The video site has several thousand videos and members The videos are mainly music videos though it also has sports, news and other videos. It is extremely easy to run. I have added pretty much every possible option to the site. There are many other modules like blogs, articles and games that I have not turned on.
Many of the features include:
RSS Media feed created for entire site. (Submitted to many search engines which drives the traffic to the site).
Built in text ad feature. Anyone can buy text links pay for them and pay for them using paypal and have them appear on the site. You can approve any text ad from admin section.
Built in ad management software from Adpeeps. Run your own banner management for the site.
Several ad zones already created for the site. Adsense in all possible positions on the site. For adsense it is simple as getting the code, and then copying and pasting the code. Activate and you are done. The same applies for the adult channels.
All the features of YouTube. Playlists, favorites quicklink and much more.
If you can read, running this site is extremely easy from the admin section
The current server cost is $349. Bandwidth usages is around 2500GB a month. I am currently hosted at The Planet. I am sure you could easily get a far cheaper server just by talking to them. They offer all kinds of deals all the time. Just make sure you get at least a 250GB drive and at least a 2500GB bandwidth, though there again you could get a great deal just talking to them. I will pay to have the sites transferred to your server. The sale also includes the domains jujunation.com, net, org which I will transfer to you.
Copyright issues: This site has mainly African music videos. For most Africans, getting air play for their videos is almost impossible, so most personally upload their videos to YouTube and other video sites. I have a DMCA notice on the site. My approach is to take down any video no questions asked if I am asked to. I am proud to say, I have never been asked to take down any video and I have actually had many artists and producers thank me for putting up their videos and also sending me videos to put up. This is not to say somewhere down the line someone might actually ask you to take down a video. When you run a video site, stuff like that might eventually happen.
Revenue Details:
The site averages about $270 a month. Other that a couple of adsense blocks, I have not really tried to monetize the site. On a good month when I actually take time to promote the site the adsense total is usually around $350. The very top banner is linked to an African Ad network. So far I have received a $100 check from them. I can transfer my account there to you.
Traffic Details:
Most of the traffic of the site comes from the submission of the RSS Media feeds to video search engines like Truveo. These search engines are also used by other major sites so the videos on the site really get around. I also submit a few videos to sites like Youtube and Dailymotion with links to get the back to the site. This is a really great way to get traffic. I also use forum signatures in African forums for backlinks. The rest comes from Google and other search engines. I have however done very little to promote the site. I don't run adwords or do much SEO work which makes the ranking of the site rather impressive. Video sites are kind of like that. Put up videos and they will come. However, if you intend to move higher in the ranking and drive more traffic to the site doing serious promotion, SEO and stuff like Google Adwords is highly recommended.
The second site I am selling is a wallpaper site. http://www.wallpapermad.com. It is a custom designed site just completed. It comes with the entire wallpaper pack collection from the site designer which I paid for. There are tens of thousands of high quality wallpapers on the site. Other than exchange some links with other sites, I have really not done anything. The site is only a few days old now. There is no serious revenue yet from the adsense on the site.
As you can see, I am just trying to move out of the web business. Everything on the server must go before I shut it down. All serious bids will be considered.
Revenue Details
The site uses adsense and an African ad network.

"do you have to frequently source and upload the videos to the site?"
It is a combination of both. Most of the videos, I personally uploaded them. Other users upload videos but the bulk is from me and a couple of other guys. There are several sources other than just YouTube to get videos. I started the site to showcase African music. The most viewed videos on the site are the Mapouka videos. A very suggestive form of African dancing. I have loaded pretty much every Mapouka video out there that exist and people come back every day just to watch them. In fact most of the Mapouka videos on Youtube some with million plus views were simply copied from my site. Right now the site is at a point where just a few videos each week is all you need to keep going.
"Do you have the website statistics and details that shows the income for the site over the past 3 to six months? Thanks."
I have uploaded the last four month adsense. For August it was $260.21 and for July it was $325.95. For web statistics I had google analytics running but yesterday when I checked it, it had stopped collecting data. and had reset. I am still trying to figure it out. I have uploaded the webalizer stats instead.

1- The site is running kind of slow. Do you think it's due to the server limitations? Do you think the side needs a more powerfull server?
2- What is the address of the other site (the walpepper site)you have for sale? Is it included in this sale? -

"1- The site is running kind of slow. Do you think it's due to the server limitations? Do you think the side needs a more powerfull server?"
It seems rather to be a bandwidth issue.Lots of people on and trying to access the videos at the same time. I am currently working with my hosting and server management team to tweak the settings. It might also be I need a more powerful server to handle all the users. I am working on it."2- What is the address of the other site (the walpepper site)you have for sale? Is it included in this sale?'
The wallpaper site is http://www.wallpapermad.com It is included in the sale. It is a new site, custom designed for me. -

You talked about a server management team. Does that mean you are payng extra for the management of the server? If yes, how much is the server cost without the management service?

"You talked about a server management team. Does that mean you are payng extra for the management of the server? If yes, how much is the server cost without the management service?"
No, the server management team simply runs the server for me. This is not part of the cost of the server. I subscribe to the server management team because I really am clueless about servers and would rather not go poking around in there. Of course you don't need them. I use them for minor things like reboot, installing updates and patches, tweaking the server settings and monitoring the server for me. The cost of the server is $349. As I said you could contact The Planet and work out a better deal for a server. I once was paying almost twice what I was paying now, and realized I did not need all that server power and The Planet worked out a new deal for me. Just ask for something with with 250GB - 300GB hard drive and 3000 - 4000 GB bandwidth. They have all kinds of deal combinations that could get you a server that is probably cheaper.

Hello,
I would like to conclude this deal as soon as possible. I plan to change the server host. What would advise as the set-up due to what you have seen as far as traffic? Also, any thoughts on the potential for expansion of the site? I appriciate your time.Thanks,
JC
