About the Business

The text describes an opportunity to acquire a well-established, automated cooking and recipe website known for its significant member base and unique content. Launched in 1998, the site has been featured in various media outlets and attracts over 30,000 monthly members across 75 countries, primarily targeting 30-45-year-old women in the USA. The site features over 13,900 publicly shared member-added recipes and more than 72,000 recipes stored privately by registered users. The website offers various monetization opportunities, including advanced membership fees ranging from $4.99 to $24.99 per year, integrating Google AdSense, ClickBank, and other affiliates. Despite having approximately 100 paying members, monetization has not been aggressively pursued. Potential revenue streams also include selling recipe e-books, paid database access, advertising placements, affiliate partnerships, and developing a mobile app. The site's traffic is primarily organic, driven by SEO and returning users, with minimal paid media efforts. Most traffic is new each month, sourced from search and referral. However, the current focus on other projects has limited the site's operational potential. The site presents substantial opportunities for growth and increased engagement through enhanced promotion of paid features and active management. Current statistics include over 816,601 logins recorded, with over 30,000 active members. The advanced membership allows storing additional recipes beyond the free tier's five-recipe limit, though further promotion of this paid feature is possible.

Buying Advice

Flippa’s platform is free for buyers. Here are our tips for first-time buyers:


Before making an offer

1. Look for verified sellers. Sellers should verify their email, phone, and government ID. When a seller has completed all verifications, we identify them with a checkmark like this:

2. Review financials. Financials are seller-provided inputs. Always ask for verified financials. Ask for a tax return or request access to their dashboard. if it’s an ecommerce store get a transaction report.

3. Review traffic. Sellers can grant you access to Google Analytics. Ask for read-only access to verify site traffic.

4. Schedule a call. Communication is key. The best way to find out more is to speak directly with the seller. For your protection, keep all communication within Flippa.

5. Make the offer on Flippa. We’re here to help. Flippa does not charge buyers and by making an offer on Flippa you’ll get access to our post-sales support team.
