The owner of a popular MMO blog is selling it due to upcoming personal commitments, including relocating from Europe to Australia. The blog, which started in July 2007, has gained significant recognition in the "make money online" niche. It operates under a pseudonym and boasts strong engagement metrics: it holds a PageRank of 3, an Alexa rank of 22,100, and features a considerable number of backlinks and indexed pages. The blog also ranks impressively in Google's search results for key industry terms, making it an attractive purchase for potential buyers.
Additional assets included in the sale are multiple secured domain extensions (.BIZ, .INFO, .ORG, and .US), unique creatives in PSD format, introductions to key industry contacts, and a fully sponsored dedicated server worth $300 per month. Furthermore, the sale encompasses memberships, a Feedburner account, a Twitter account, non-free plugins, and even an iPod video currently up for auction.
The blog has not been banned from social media platforms, providing room for the new owner to explore these avenues for traffic growth. Revenue comes from private ad sales, sponsored reviews, and affiliate promotions, with an automated advertising script simplifying the sales process. The site is valued at approximately $94,760 and maintains a diverse traffic profile, with significant visits stemming from referring sites. The sale presents an opportunity for a new owner to capitalize on a well-established brand with a significant market presence.
