Description
MissMolly - The Babysitter Directory for the UK
This site has been running since Jan 2007 and is consistently No.3 or 4 in Google.co.uk for the single keyword search terms of 'babysitter' and 'babysitters', 'crb check' and 'babysitting'.
Babysitters register for free and proivide a full set of details. Parents pay £9.99 for 1 years access to as many babysitters as they wish.
The parents can use the site to email the babaysitters or SMS them. 5 SMS are provided with each registration and further credits can be purchased. The site has a credit of more than 1000 SMS to go.
Included in the site is a Post code look up that pulls the GeoCode into the site to allow parents to search within their Geographical area.
The site is Joomla based and has the original designers as site managers to alter some of the bespoke settings.
The site is totally automated with payments collected through Secure Trading and would need very little change to alter the payment Service provider.
Revenue Details
Each parent that registers pays £9.99 for one years access.
We get about 8 to 10 parent sign ups per month, however as I have too many projects to manage this has dropped from a peak of around 20 when I was actively promoting the site.

Very very interested in this. Great website.
Could you answer a few questions for me:
1) Which sms provider do you use to send out the notifications? What does this provider currently charge per 1000?
2) How are you promoting the website currently?
3) Do you have a future marketing plan for promoting to increase sales?
Regards

I use http://www.clickatell.co.uk/ and all their charge is £39.30 per 1000 sms messages
Other than organic listings in Google I do not promote the site at all as I have moved on to other projects and am too busy to work on MissMolly. The No.2/3 position in Google for the keywords is therefore very stable as no link building etc. has occured for 18 months at least.
There are no future marketing plans for the above reason.
