Dragon's Dungeon

www.DragonsDungeon.com is for sale

I bought this site at the beginning of the year, in this thread. The only major difference now is that according to Webalizer the site is averaging around 600 visits per day now.


It's still a PR 5.

Google shows close to 20K pages indexed.

Adsense and Amazon earnings are around the same.

I never even change the Fastclick over to my account, which leads me into the reason for selling. I'm trying to focus myself on specific niche, and Dragons isn't it. It's using between 10 and 20 GB of data transfer per month. The domain is at Dotster.

I'm going to take offers on this for the next five days.

Re: Dragon's Dungeon

I'll start off at $100. Is there a BIN?

Re: Dragon's Dungeon

I got:

Warning: mysql_connect(): Access denied for user: 'ateydchr_aws@localhost' (Using password: YES) in /home/dragon/public_html/aws-functions.php on line 127

Warning: mysql_select_db(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /home/dragon/public_html/aws-functions.php on line 128

Warning: mysql_query(): Access denied for user: 'nobody@localhost' (Using password: NO) in /home/dragon/public_html/aws-functions.php on line 135

Warning: mysql_query(): A link to the server could not be established in /home/dragon/public_html/aws-functions.php on line 135

Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /home/dragon/public_html/aws-functions.php on line 136

on the "Middle Earth (Lord of the rings)" page.

Just wondering what that's all about. Otherwise, make it $110.

Grush.

Re: Dragon's Dungeon

you may want to answer your bidder's question and say if there is a BIN or not. ignoring them makes you not look so good, just some advice

Re: Dragon's Dungeon

Since you have mentioned about that thread, like potential buyer, I want to ask something:
1. what is the AWS (Did you have any problems with your hoster)
2. can I see the stats (into PR if you like)
3. why such nice site is been selling second time in 4 months….

Re: Dragon's Dungeon

Hey Peter, you never acknowledged my PM. And how about you say there is no BIN if there isn't one, instead of pretending someone didn't ask. You didn't have a problem seeing the highest bid...

Re: Dragon's Dungeon

Hi, I'm not ignoring the question about a BIN, I just went to sleep directly after that last post. Just woke up a short time ago. Give me time to wake up and I'll see what I can think of for a BIN. Seems there's a lot of interest. I have a $300 bit from Fryman, and a private message bid of $400, but am not sure if that $400 is a solid bid or just an offer to end the bidding at that price (which I won't do just yet).
Thanks

Re: Dragon's Dungeon

I'm having a hard time verifying the PR of 5.

Phrases from the home page (such as "Dragon's Dungeon") don't seem to rank as high as they should in Google (not in top 100).

Backlinks (using the major engines) don't show up any good links. Is there any other way I can find out if the PR is genuine?

Also, are stats available to view?

Re: Dragon's Dungeon

To be honest, I don't know why the search engines like this site so much either. All I can say is that I neither sought to add backlinks, or remove any while I owned the site. Yet, the traffic has greatly increased since January. More than half of the SE traffic is from Jeeves, the rest a mix of the usual, Yahoo, MSN, Google, and the minors. Obviously, I cannot guarantee future performance. The only thing I've done with the site since I have owned it is change the Adsense ads to my own, and change the Amazon affiliate ID in the AWS pages. This site is one of the very few that I've seen that the old saying "if you build it they will come" can be applied to. Anyway, buying a site based on what the Google Toolbar says about it is unwise.

Here's a list of keywords that have result in more than more than five clicks from the SEs.
