Professional Magazine Site - Top Domain.

[Jernet]

I'm kicking around the idea of selling http://www.magazine-subscriptions.com
The site has excellent front end and back end accessability. Most profit margins are HUGE! Most markups on the prices average 20-50% or more (and it still offers some of the lowest prices on the net).


The site has just been launched about 1.5 weeks ago, so search engine rankings are limited. 90% the current traffic (20-50/day) is from the ppc's.
I have made 5 sales so far, for about $50 profit.


This site could be someone's dream. The domain name alone has a significant value. I need to sell for personal reasons.

Site will include all instructions, including the wholesale supplier info. Maintenance of the site is very easy, thanks to an excellent admin area.

If you have been looking for the perfect turnkey operation, then this is for you. The magazine field is about as lucrative as it gets.

I'm not sure what else to post, so you can always pm me any questions. I am not looking for a fortune, but definately will not give it away. I have well over $xxxx.xx invested into the site and domain. You can post any offers, or PM them. Thanks.

I have had a couple of nice offers already, keep them coming.

I also wanted to add some extra details that you may find very interesting. The site also comes with CBPlugin which is an automated affiliate program which can be seen here:

You can earn up to %75 in commissions thru it! Also, another neat idea that I have used, is promoting my books:

and business opportunities:

This just multiplies the potential even more. Think of the possibilities!

Best offer so far - $1500

The reluctancy of visible "going ga-ga over it" factor, might be in part because it is still unproven and untested. Not to mention that there's another site that does the same, and is named the same - but, without a hyphen.

In fact, quick Wayback check shows that yours used to belong to them, but I guess it split up at some point, presumably for the purpose of harvesting double.

Nice site though.

How long do you plan on keeping the sale going on?

Until I feel I've reached the highest offer, or if somebody makes me an offer I cannot refuse. I have 4 interested parties via PM. I have no doubt I will sell it.

New best offer...$1550 - Keep them coming please. Thanks!

I have had quite a few questions on how the money is made. This is a very good question! I am sorry I missed it. THIS IS NOT AN AFFILIATE PROGRAM!

Here's how it works:

The site is using the Paypal IPN, shopping cart;
When someone makes a purchase, it goes directly into your paypal account;
Each magazine has a remit cost and a selling price.
The selling price is the amount YOU are selling the magazine for;
The REMIT cost is what you have to send to the clearinghouse.

For example, Joe buy's a one year subscription to Maxim;
He pays the $9 subscription price, you then send the clearinghouse the remit price
the current remit price for Maxim is $1.69! You just made $7!

All processing and fulfilling is done by the clearinghouse, once you place the order, you are done!
It is neat, clean, and easy. This IS professionally done, and you really have something that could become big...very big.

Hope this helps?

Strange offer, but the highest nontheless is $1624

OK
Thanks for replying to my PM here on the board :( .....
Is this site your very own or, is it a shell from a clearing house.
You make it sound simple and easy ....
How reliable is the clearing house?
Thanks

The same question was asked 3 times, and probably was going to be asked more. I figured I could save everybody some time, since I should have posted it in the first place

I did not design this site, but it is not a 'shell' from the clearinghouse. The clearinghouse is a well reputable business BUT, you can use any clearinghouse you want. These guys were chosen because of their professionalism. There are of at least two others out there I am aware of.

The clearinghouse has nothing to do with the site. The only differences you will find between clearinghouses, will actually only be what titles they carry, and their remit costs. By looking at the multitude of magazines, and the prices, you can see why these guys are used.

Thanks.
