Be On The Lookout
Tuesday, October 23rd, 2007I have been checking Sitepoint frequently lately, and there just aren’t a lot of quality sites for sale right now. The few decent ones that have popped up got sold pretty quickly so I missed out on even trying to evaluate. This game takes patience. Has anyone bought anything recently? I would love to hear [...]
Getting Dugg!
Saturday, October 20th, 2007One of my websites got dugg the other day! I really love it when that happens. If you want to launch a successful website, getting to the frontpage of digg is one of the best things you can do to get exposure. If I was a little more serious about this blog, I would be [...]
ShoppingAds Followup – AuctionAds & ShoppingAds Both Suck
Thursday, October 18th, 2007A couple weeks ago, I got an email from Patrick Gavin from MediaWhiz. He was starting a new ad network called ShoppingAds. I thought I would give them a shot since my AuctionAds campaigns have done progressively worse month after month.
I am sorry to report that ShoppingAds is no better and possibly worse than [...]
The Big Leagues
Thursday, October 11th, 2007While I was reading Markus’s blog, I stumbled across this post. Markus runs the largest free dating site, and he pointed out a sales listing of one of his competitors. I guess he’s gloating about putting them on the auction block.
The sale is posted at iMergeAdvisors. I haven’t heard of them before, [...]
Final Fantasy Fan – One Year In Review
Wednesday, October 10th, 2007Last year on October 3rd I purchased my Final Fantasy site for $15,000. Since it has been a little over 1 year, I thought I would update you with the results of my first attempt at the webmaster game.
The total earnings for my site were $10,739.06. Assuming, I could sell the site for exactly what [...]
Lets All Try To Learn Something
Saturday, October 6th, 2007So the other day I mentioned the site that was for sale. It was quickly bid up to $15,000 while monthly incomes were shown as about $300. I looked at the traffic, and in my estimation its getting enough traffic to produce somewhere between $600-$1000/mon. Its hard to say because the niche is Singapore, and [...]
Site For Sale
Thursday, October 4th, 2007I ran across this listing the other day, and have been keeping my eye on it. It looks like it is a little out of my price range right now, but I think the site is solid. Revenues could definitely be increased given the 3000 uniques per day the site is receiving.
It is [...]
ShoppingAds Review – Auction Ads Out?
Wednesday, October 3rd, 2007I just received this email from Patrick Gavin of TLA and AuctionAds.
Maxwell, thanks for your support of AuctionAds over the months since its launch. I know that you were making more money in the early months than recently and I want to change that! We have been working hard on a CPC product [...]
Website Income – September 2007
Tuesday, October 2nd, 2007I am now back from Egypt. I had a blast. Check out this photo of me on a camel.
On to business…
My total earnings for September was $4912.70. This was a little disappointing, since it was a drop from last month. There is a good reason for the drop however. I lost some traffic due to [...]
