The website, which has been described as prime internet real estate, offers guidance to players on accumulating gold, essential for game play without resorting to risky third-party sites. Since its inception in July 2012, the site has seen exponential increases in page views, reaching a point where it is projected to exceed 100,000 views within just three months. In addition to blogs, the site features an active forum, chat room, exclusive content, and embedded YouTube videos. It ranks number one for five key Guild Wars 2-related keywords and attracts visitors for over two minutes on average. The website has multiple backlinks from prominent sites, is featured in serveral blogrolls, and has stickied threads on major community forums, significantly boosting its traffic.

The site requires minimal recurring costs for URL renewals. It has a strong foundation of backlinks from established websites, enhancing its visibility and driving sustained traffic. Given the rise in Guild Wars 2's popularity, the site is poised for continued growth, providing a seamless platform for new owners to exploit its monetary potentials.
