The seller has significantly reduced the "buy it now" price and minimum bid to expedite the sale of a set of ebook businesses. Initially offering one site, they have included two additional ebook sites without increasing the price. Although the additional sites are not yet generating significant sales, they have good backlinks, rank well for keywords, and are poised for increased profitability. Each of these businesses includes an existing blog to help drive traffic. The main ebook site has been successful, converting well even during economic downturns in the U.S., and it has operated without a Pay Per Click (PPC) campaign or substantial attention. Despite this, it has generated an average of $1,600 per month from organic traffic, selling downloads at $37 each. The site receives over 5,500 monthly visitors, ranking high on search engines for valuable keywords, which suggests potential for increased conversion rates with some improvement. The seller mentions that they own about half a dozen websites but lack PPC expertise and time to devote to these sites. However, the business is largely automated, requiring minimal effort to run, which would allow a new owner to focus on marketing and potentially increasing income. This offering presents a significant opportunity for growth under the right management.
