The Battledome Is Up For Sale And Everything Must Go!
Unique Internet Marketing blog with a loyal following and a PR1 page rank. Step right in and take this over without missing a beat.
What you get:
Wordpress Theme - Flexibility 2 - customize anyway you want to right from the dashboard. Includes 5 sales pages, unlimited pages, and unlimited WIDE pages (without the sidebar).
Plug-Ins Installed - Wordpress Unique, All-In-One SEO, Contact-7 - It's Wordpress - Add whatever you want!
Graphics - If you've ever read this blog you know there are dozens of different images and headers. I'm including all of those files - including the trademark Beamer image and anything I purchased from iStock.
Membership Site - There's a membership site attached to this - Micro Membership. I don't know anything about it - I had someone else install it. But I'll provide the documentation. It's already installed, I'm just not using it.
Content - There are 61 unique published posts on this blog so it's not like you've buying a blog-in-a-box.
Monetization: I've been using this blog to promote my writing business and I'm selling it because I've got another blog I'd rather use now. This one is all Internet Marketing content and I need to show people other forms of writing. But I've been generating around $1000 to $1200 a month in writing jobs with the 'Dome. It's got a decent, loyal following so you could monetize it with whatever you want - IM products, your own products, Adsense, etc.
The Audience: The people who visit the 'Dome regularly are interested in Internet Marketing techniques - they are NOT coming here because of my freelance writing offers. I send clients here to see writing samples but the regular visitors are interested in IM. Currently averaging over 200 unique visitors per day but I do NOT have analytics on this blog. Sorry. I'm going to try to attach screen shots of the cpanel analytics.
Transfer - Sorry. I'm technologically illiterate. But I'll give you 2 months to move it yourself or I can recommend someone you can use.
List - There are over 1000 people on my list for this blog and I'lll transfer it to you so you can import. However - they'll still have to opt-in so I'm not guaranteeing how many you'll keep.
Twitter Account - I have a Twitter account set up for this blog, too. 97dollarebooks.

How are you advertising this to drive the traffic? Also is everything going to be left on the page such as the price points and services etc? What main keywords are you targeting for this? Please advise and thanks!
Hi Kelly,
Generally I send an email to my list when I post and tell them there's a new post up. However, I've been watching my email stats and the number of daily visitors far exceeds the number of people clicking through on the emails. A large portion of the daily visitors are now coming through the feed.
If the blog sells, I'll take down those sales pages with price points. If you want the pages left up, I'll take the paypal buttons off and leave the rest. I'll also change the headers back to the ones that show Beamer if you'd like.
As for advertising - I have a couple of Squidoo lenses pointing at the blog and sales page and about 15 ezine articles that link to the blog. Most use keywords referencing Freelance writing but some are just extra articles I had laying around so I posted them to ezine and linked to the blog.
If you're a writer - this blog shows up under "97 dollar ebooks" and "dollar ebooks" and I'm not sure what else. I haven't really done much promotion on it until recently. I've always just used it as a portfolio.
It wouldn't take much to monetize this. I have had a few affiliate sales off of it but I don't really push anything so the numbers aren't that impressive. Like I said, I've mainly used this blog as a portfolio - it just happens to have some decent traffic and ranking and I hate to just let it die.
Hope that helps and thanks for asking!
Cheers!
Donna
