What\u2019s your background? How did you start the business?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m a designer that created No Bun Please after starting a Keto diet, an eating plan I first discovered on Reddit. I was very successful with Keto and was always getting questions about it. I found it much easier to point someone to a blog post than to explain the entire process, so No Bun Please was born. At one point, Keto got really big and my site traffic increased significantly. I was able to join a really great ad network (AdThrive) and make a nice passive income for the past few years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>As an <a href=\"#\">eCommerce business<\/a>, where are your products made?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My only actual products are eBooks that are distributed via SendOwl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How have you marketed the product and where are your customers originating from?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My customers come from organic search traffic mostly. A small percentage is from social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Is the asset on your listing owner-operated, how much time does it take to run the business, who else is needed on the team, and what is automated?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, owner-operated. Less than 1 hour per week as I do not really update it often. I&#8217;m the only team member. Distributing eBook purchases is automated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What does someone need to do to continue operating the business in its current form?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>General use of WordPress\/social media. For new content, knowledge of Keto or access to writers with knowledge of Keto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Growing the business<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Can you list a few opportunities for a potential new owner to continue growing the business?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>New\/updated content with a focus on SEO is a big one. Videos on popular posts. Social media reels seem to be really popular and beneficial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There&#8217;s a lot of room for sponsorships and new affiliates. While there are ads on the website, social media and the e-mail list have not been used for sales at all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What has been the evolution of this asset since its launch?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It started as a reference for my friends and family on the Keto diet. Then, serendipitously, Keto blew up and my site started getting a lot of traffic. I was able to get into a great ad network (AdThrive) that pays very well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How does this business make money? What are the current revenue streams?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mostly ads. Other revenue streams include affiliates and eBook sales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What marketing channels are most profitable for the business?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I don&#8217;t use any paid marketing services at the moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How does the business currently acquire customers and what is your breakdown for marketing costs?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I have a link in my navigation with eBooks that are available for purchase. I also collect subscribers who sign up for email updates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How big is your current team? How many people does it take to run this business?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Me, 1 person team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What\u2019s the reason for selling your business on Flippa?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I don&#8217;t have the time to keep up with the site. While the passive income has been nice, traffic is on a slow decline over time. With more consistent updates, SEO and marketing, I know it can likely bring in a lot more money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link\" href=\"https:\/\/flippa.com\/11043896-an-8-year-old-site-that-features-low-carb-recipes-and-helpful-information-regarding-the-keto-diet-for-optimal-performance-diabetes-and-weight-loss\">View the listing on Flippa<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About the business Tell us a little about yourself.
