The listing describes an established affiliate website in the niche of cross-training shoes, built on WordPress, and generating revenue through Amazon Affiliates. The site was acquired from a well-known marketplace in August 2015, indicating its quality. Monthly profits have varied between $464 and $1277, attributed to consistent traffic driven by well-targeted keywords. The current owner is selling due to the closure of their Amazon affiliate account, unrelated to the site's performance or compliance. Content was initially created by the previous owner and subsequently enhanced by freelance writers.
Included in the sale is the domain "crosstrainingshoe.net" and all associated content. Hosting expenses are outlined, with suggestions to reduce costs by opting for a differently priced provider. Opportunities for growth include targeting additional keywords related to Crossfit shoes, experimenting with other advertising networks like Adsense, and possibly launching an e-commerce platform to sell products directly.
The seller acknowledges the emotional aspect of the sale, given the website's positive investment history. However, due to the Amazon account issue, monetization through this channel is no longer an option. The sale process will involve domain transfer post-purchase, with options for transferring website files or granting WordPress access. Interested buyers can make an initial bid to demonstrate seriousness and can also inquire about further details via private messages. There are no guarantees offered with the purchase, reflecting the inherent risks of online business acquisition.
