A few months after acquiring a gaming website, the owner invested significant time redesigning it with new artwork and developing a custom traffic trading script that automates trading functions. The website requires minimal daily maintenance, such as adding new games and approving new trading partners. Efforts in search engine optimization (SEO) were initiated a couple of months ago, targeting keywords like "free fun games" and "free flash games." The custom traffic trading script enhances referral traffic by converting every 100 website visitors into 500 referral visitors, promising exponential traffic growth as SEO efforts mature.
The entire arcade website, which includes a domain name, a specialized script, unique artwork valued at $3,000, a custom trading script worth $3,500, and 29 original escape games valued at $4,000, is up for sale. The website has experienced fluctuations in revenue, with earnings recorded as $1,432 in June, $2,930 in July, $2,453 in August, and dropping in subsequent months.
The seller emphasizes the potential for increased traffic and revenue through regular game releases and leveraging the traffic trading mechanism. The decision to sell stems from the owner's need for funds for higher education. Potential buyers are assured of receiving contact information for game developers to continue the growth and development of the site. The ability to remove sitelocks and insert personal site logos into games offers additional customization options for the new owner.
