This established website generates a steady profit by delivering niche-targeted web traffic. Operations are largely automated, with customer orders processed through an admin area and traffic directed to their sites via an ad network. Customers receive automated emails regarding registration, purchase receipts, and campaign completion. The business requires about 30 minutes of daily management, and the current owner offers 30 days of assistance post-sale.
Payments are currently processed through Authorize.net, though the setup allows for PayPal integration, potentially increasing profits. New owners must sign up with Authorize.net and update a piece of code to direct funds to their bank account. Monthly profits range between $7,000 and $8,000, with detailed figures provided from September to January. Key expenses include traffic delivery ($900-$1,100) and hosting ($400 annually), with no costs on advertising.
Purchasers will receive domain transfer, website content, reseller area access, and all necessary passwords and documentation. The seller intends to move on to a new venture in online backup, seeking a lump sum to invest in this area.
Suggestions for the new owner include implementing paid advertising, enhancing SEO, accepting PayPal, exploring additional traffic sources, and utilizing social media marketing. Current traffic is primarily organic from major search engines, with potential growth through paid ads. The site has strong keyword rankings, supported by an ongoing SEO contract with a firm until September 2012, which should aid in continued search engine ascension.
