The auction listing is for an automated coupon site that earns revenue through affiliate links. The owner is selling it because they prefer building websites rather than maintaining them and have encountered issues with their AdWords account. The site uses custom scripts to pull coupon data from affiliates such as ShareASale, Commission Junction, and Pepperjam, and features WordPress integration for blogging. The platform automatically manages expired coupons and incorporates social sharing capabilities, allowing users to share deals on social platforms.
The site's administration tools are robust, allowing detailed management of merchants, including adding or editing details like URLs, meta descriptions, and specific merchant guidelines. A custom spider checks and updates merchant site data regularly, and eBay links can also be integrated for additional monetization opportunities. With tools for merging duplicate merchants and efficient coupon review processes, the system promises ease of use.
PPC campaigns are managed through a script that activates or pauses ad groups based on coupon availability, optimizing cost-efficiency. Daily reporting provides detailed insights into revenue, traffic, and campaign performance.
The package includes an Excel sheet for setting up ad campaigns and a related Twitter account. The site has generated nearly $40,000 in profit over the past year, with ongoing potential in the lucrative coupon industry. Notably, the site doesn't include the owner’s affiliate accounts, and hosting is not provided with the sale. Guidance on setup can be negotiated separately. The website is positioned to capitalize on the upcoming fourth-quarter sales surge, offering an appealing opportunity for potential buyers.
