A broadband comparison website was developed in late 2009 and launched in January 2010, following significant investment in search engine optimization and website design. The site has achieved notable search rankings, particularly ranking 3rd for "broadband plans" and 6th for "mobile broadband plans" on a popular search engine. This positions it as a valuable asset for anyone looking to enter the competitive broadband comparison market.
Ownership of the site offers several benefits, including a well-established domain name, branding, and a fully developed website. It features over 200 pages of unique content, including guides and blog articles, and has a high click-through rate of 24% from affiliate links. The site is supported by more than 30,000 backlinks from around 2,500 referring domains, enhancing its search visibility. Additionally, effective link-building strategies have secured backlinks from prestigious domains.
Currently a joint venture between two companies from the UK and Australia, the site is available for purchase at approximately AUD$40,000 due to the partners' focus on other projects. It generates a modest $200/month through affiliate links; however, earnings could substantially increase with better affiliations with broadband providers. The site's monthly traffic is on an upward trend, with over 2,200 unique visitors recorded during a one-month period between December 2010 and January 2011. The opportunity for acquisition presents potential for immediate profitability with strategic partnerships.
