A notable professional wrestling news website, established in December 2002, is now for sale. This platform has been a go-to source for WWE news and rumors, attracting hundreds of thousands of fans daily. It generates revenue through display advertisements and a membership model akin to ESPN's "Insider," offering exclusive content to subscribers. Partnering with prominent advertising agencies such as Tribal Fusion and PadSquad, the site ensures consistent monthly income. A premium content area was introduced in 2008, providing an ad-free experience and access to exclusive sections for paid subscribers. The website operates using WordPress and Amember for managing subscriptions.
The sale includes the domain, all existing content, a database of paid members, and associated social media accounts, boasting a Twitter following of 24.7K and a Facebook page with 16K likes. Upon agreement, the site’s content will be transferred to the buyer’s server, along with the domain and social media accounts. The current owner, after 14 years of managing the site, seeks a new challenge, citing the website’s robust and growing revenue as an excellent addition to any business portfolio.
Additional transparency is provided with details of advertising revenue from December 2016 for potential buyers. All inquiries are encouraged to be directed through a secure transaction platform, offering interested parties a comprehensive understanding of the business's financial health and operational structure.
