Description

ArticlePR.com is an information site for article marketers (people using article marketing for search engine optimization purposes).

It's a free, trusted site that's been operating for 4 years. It lists hundreds of article directories and lists, as well as a reliable list of article ghost-writers. The site is regularly recommended as a useful resource in SEO circles. It ranks no.1 in the world for "articlepr" and no.3 in the world for "article submission".

The site was professionally custom-designed (by http://www.mc3.com.au) and the copy was professionally written (by http://www.divinewrite.com). It does NOT have a CMS.

All content on the site is unique except for the reference articles, which are shared by numerous other sites. (They are free reprint articles, written by http://www.divinewrite.com.)

It's a PR3 site, with steady traffic, but negligible revenue, as I don't have time to give the site the attention I'd like to.

The name "article pr" is commonly used as an alternative to "article marketing".

Included in sale:

  1. domain
  2. 740 recipient email list (I haven't validated it for a while, though)
  3. all html and image files

NOT included in sale:

  1. hosting

Revenue Details

Revenue is negligible (approx AUD $20/mnth). All revenue currently earned through Google AdSense.

I don't promote the site in any way. I'm sure if I did, it could earn more, but I'm too busy to do it. (My core business is Divine Write Copywriting.)

Traffic Details

  • Approx 1500 unique visitors per month.
  • Approx 4800 page views per month.
  • Approx 10% of traffic stays longer than 2min.
  • Approx 70% of page views come through Direct address / Bookmarks.
  • Approx 27% of page views come through search engines.
  • Top key phrases (for Sept 09) are:
    1. article submission
    2. article submission sites
    3. what is article submission
    4. article sites
    5. buy articles
    6. article submission seo

    I'm not sure if I'm allowed to use the Questions area for this, but I forgot a couple of things that I'd like to throw in with the sale. The site was originally intended to host some article distribution software (to automate the distribution of articles to article directories). I'm no programmer, but I've specced this software out. The following is also included in the sale:
    - 17 page software logic flowchart (Visio)
    - 35 page functional spec
    - various other related stuff

    You might also be interested to note that Rick DeJarnette of Bing Webmaster Center lists article syndication as his number 4 link building tip. (See http://www.webpronews.com/topnews/2009/11/23/link-building-for-bing-rankings-dos-and-donts) Good to know that article syndication works as well with Bing as it does with Google.

    Note: I've just renewed the hosting of this site with SmartyHost (another 12 months). Apparently I can transfer this hosting to the new owner. I'm happy to do that (although I don't yet know how).
