The described website is a popular automated platform for streaming YouTube movies, achieving over 100,000 weekly visits, primarily from users in the USA and UK. As of its launch in December 2012, the site remains unmonetized, with its owners focusing on other web development and SEO projects. The site operates legally by embedding YouTube videos, and it follows YouTube's removal policies for any copyright infringement. Despite some DMCA requests, the site maintains strong rankings on Google for various movie-related keywords, garnering significant search volumes monthly.
Organic backlinks, with a couple exceptions, support the site's growth, and it is expected to attain a PageRank of 4 soon. The platform is built using a custom PHP code and utilizes Bootstrap for a responsive design, along with the YouTube API, cron jobs for automation, and CloudFlare's CDN for bandwidth management. There's minimal maintenance required, as cron jobs handle operations, though manual movie management is possible. Hosting is affordable with the current usage being well-managed through CloudFlare's caching services.
To ensure a smooth transaction, Escrow.com will handle financial exchanges, and the team offers a month of technical support, including assistance with CloudFlare setup. Selling the site is a strategic decision by the owner, who has a history of buying and selling internet businesses. This project was successful but lacked monetization plans, prompting the decision to sell. The seller has a well-established reputation in the digital economy and operates as part of an international business.
