Description

Arctic Monkeys UK.com is almost 3 years old and is a forum with over 4,700 members, over 100,000 content posts it includes a Gallery with over 2,300+ photos a Downloads section which have been downloaded over 17,000 times

The site is all powered by Invision Power Services and the Gallery, Downloads, Blogs and IP Content License are all included in this sale which to purchase would cost $290 just for the software.

Sale will include Domain Name, all Software licenses and website content and database

Revenue Details

Currently the forum is not monetized in anyway however im sure with good placing of adsense code with the number of page views it would generate a good income.

Currently we offer a one off package that costs £5 we have 80 members take advantage of this so far after paypal costs this as generated £380 so far.

Hosting costs are currently $29.99 and are with Invision Power Services Web Hosting on a Platinum Plan.

    Please clarify how much manpower including volunteer effort is required to run this site.
    What is the one-off package mentioned above.
    Have you had any copyright/trademark infringement issues?

    I would say i spend around an hour a day and then during special events live concerts on TV 3-4 hours.

    Currently there are two mods and one more admin member but the site members are very friendly and i would be happy to stay on in some capacity (if the new owner so wishes - as a volunteer mod)

    The package i mentioned was a donation to the forum that allows a member to bypass a rule of making 50 posts to access the downloads section.

    No there have been no copyright/trademark infringement issues - the logo was self designed by one of the mods.

    I also have the contact details for both the manager and record label of the band to consult them.

    Thanks

    Hi,
    Is there also a facebook or twitter page that would be included? As I see significant traffic from both sources.

    Thanks.
