The website in question is dedicated to providing assistance for Candy Crush Saga players through strategy guides and video tutorials covering all levels of the game. It ranks within the top 300,000 globally and the top 100,000 in the USA according to Alexa. Out of the video guides available, approximately 300 are hosted on the website's YouTube channel, with the rest embedded on the site. The written guides are original content, extensively covering complex levels, and are available in 29 languages through unique landing pages. Each game level has a dedicated page offering strategy insights, score goals, and obstacles information.
The website is built using PHP without a database, with JSON files storing level data and CSV files managing language pages. Knowledge of PHP is essential to manage the site since it lacks a content management system. Traffic to the site is entirely organic as no SEO efforts or advertising campaigns have been pursued.
Revenue streams include Adsense, Bing Contextual Ads, and Clickbank, generating varying monthly incomes, with Adsense earnings reported at $5,055 in November 2013. There are additional income opportunities through Amazon links, although currently underperforming. A sale of the website is being considered primarily due to personal reasons, specifically the need for a substantial lump sum to assist with a house purchase. Social media accounts tied to the site, including YouTube and Facebook (with around 450 likes), are available as part of the sale, representing untapped potential for increasing visitors.
