A package of three 21 year old blogs that work together synergistically to generate an average $9,000 per month income from Adthrive ads & affiliate marketing!
The business under review is a 21-year-old collection of three synergistic blogs in the DIY, home, garden, and lifestyle niche. It enjoys a substantial amount of recurring readers and passive income. Key attributes include a high percentage of organic traffic, all-original content, and interconnected blogs that boost each other's outreach through backlinks and direct traffic. Over its long tenure, it has established a dedicated readership and is well-recognized in the DIY blogging community.
Featured in popular magazines and media outlets, the business primarily generates income through advertising with partners like Adthrive and Outbrain, and affiliate marketing via platforms like Rewardstyle and Skimlinks. The operation demands minimal social media effort, with most traffic deriving from Google searches, direct visits, and referrals. Recent years have seen reduced management hours due to personal and health reasons, signaling growth potential for new ownership. The sites can be managed by a single individual but can also benefit from outsourced support for minimal involvement.
The clientele largely comprises individuals interested in gardening and home decor. The financial performance of the blogs, particularly the top-performing site, shows typical seasonal trends with a noted increase during the pandemic.
The business owner is looking to sell due to retirement and other commitments. The sale includes the three well-established blogs, all associated content, branding elements, social media accounts, and a substantial email marketing list with high engagement rates. Opportunities for growth include leveraging the email list, creating courses, boosting paid advertisements, and enhancing SEO efforts.
