The online publishing platform, developed in Ruby on Rails, provides a versatile and robust system for managing digital publications. It caters to over 2500 accounts, mostly free, with service levels ranging up to $19 per month. Users can instantly create an online publication that includes features for managing subscriptions, content access, and revenue generation through integrated tools such as a store, events, classifieds, directory, and subscriptions. A key feature is its integration with PayPal for purchases. The software is designed to support major publications like Time Magazine or Newsweek and includes options for resellers, who need web design expertise, to privately label the product.
The offer includes two websites, three domain names, and two PayPal accounts for transaction management. Notably, the primary marketing site ranks first in major search engines for "Magazine Publishing Software" and "Online Publishing Software" and boasts a page rank of 5. The reseller system manages accounts via a different address with a page rank of 4, while a third domain remains inactive.
The business generates an average of $1500 per month in recurring subscriptions, though there is potential for significantly higher revenue. Monthly server costs amount to $328. The primary site receives about 2700 unique visitors and 15,000 page views monthly, while client sites collectively generate millions of page views.
Upon acquisition, the buyer will assume all system rights, domains, PayPal accounts, and clients, with guidance provided for transition. The system is suitable for relocation or new installation post-purchase, and advertising opportunities can be explored on client websites.
