    Pengs.com monthly income

    I am listing Pengs.com to see if there is any interest! It is a PPC search engine and directory, very well established. Most of the revenue is generated by affiliates, we pay them 50% revenue share. There are currently 414 affiliates, many who have been around for a few years. Below is the link to some of the earnings, the earning I am displaying here is only from Enhance.com, you will notice that they fluctuate from month to month, there are several reasons for this.

    Some months we get more traffic than others, I also use other feeds as well, I turn them on and off and this affects the other feeds, I try to find the right balance, sometimes the higher bidded terms are with different feeds. The other feeds we use are:

    Abcsearch.com
    ah-ha
    clixShare
    epilot
    finditquick
    GenieKnows
    kanoodle
    lookquick
    mamma
    search123
    searchfeed

    There are other feeds installed in our scripts as well, it's just that these are the ones that generate a good income. The scripts and the entire site will be included in the sale, if there is a sale. The feed accounts will not be included, you will have to apply and be accepted on your own. That is if you choose to keep the site a search engine. Also, the script the site is using is Hyperseek/Jackhammer from iWeb.

    From enHance alone this year we have made over $56,000.00 of course some of that went to the affiliates, about $22,000 for the year.

    We currently have the site on a dedicated web server and a dedicated sql server on a private rack. If the person that makes the purchase wants to keep it where it is then they would be responsible for the Hosting fees.

    Re: Pengs.com

    I am sorry, but that is because you are from china and searches from china are blocked by the scripts, the feeds do not pay for traffic from china.

    The script the site is using is Hyperseek/Jackhammer from iWeb, with some customizations done by iWeb. Here is a link to their documentation: http://www.iwebsupport.com/downloads/hyperseek-dsx.pdf

    I will work on getting a demo for you to view.

    Re: Pengs.com

    The feeds we currently have running only accept traffic from UK, US, Canada and Austrailia. If you are from another country, then you will get access denied. That is the way we have it setup, if you were to purchase the site then you could allow all countries or allow different countries. However, since the feeds do not pay us for traffic from other countries we do not allow the search. This is because if we did allow the search and the click we would not be paid, however if the traffic came through an affiliate we would still have to pay the affiliate their 50%. So, to keep from having to pay for traffic that we do not earn from we have elected to do it like this.

    Their are also a few other countries that get limited results, based on the query and fraudulent traffic of the IP.
