The website in question is a rewards-based platform similar to MyPoints, where members can earn gifts. The owner is seeking to sell the site to focus on another project. The domain was registered in 2005, but significant development began in early May of the current year. The site has approximately 2,130 total members, with about 1,700 joining through special promotional pages and 430 from the index page.
In terms of financial performance, the site generated $10,565 in revenue during May, with a net profit of around 45%, equating to $4,754. So far for June, revenue stands at $1,657 as of the 7th. The website, which is custom programmed at a cost of approximately $1,500, incurs a hosting fee of about $50 per month on a shared server. Advertising costs are variable, contingent upon the owner's strategy.
Operationally, the site requires 2-3 hours of management daily, divided among updates, customer service, and order processing. Members actively respond to email communications, with a recent offer resulting in $190 in revenue shortly after an email was sent.
For the prospective buyer, a detailed manual and 45 days of support and training are included to ensure a smooth transition. The owner’s programmer will assist in transferring the site to a chosen server, with associated costs covered by the seller. Although the business is primarily suited to someone in the US, UK, or Australia, it can effectively be managed from any location.
