Firstly, I apologize for the brief descriptions of some sites below, but I'm a little pressed for time right now. Will gladly provide more info when requested.

Free push to the current registrar. One month free hosting. Full instructions will be provided. Free email support while you host with me.

PayPal payment only (no eChecks). Posted on multiple forums. Post SOLD to claim @ BIN. I reserve the right to refuse any bids, other than BIN, and end auction at anytime. Thanks for looking!

Offers always considered! :becky:



===== 5 ESTABLISHED COMIC BOOK, SCI-FI AND ANIMATION FAN SITES & SHOPS - PR4 - $100 =====

  • hitchhikersguide.ws - PR4 - Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Fan Site & Amazon shop with added content - income - offers from $100 - BIN: $350
  • wallaceandgromit.us - PR4 - Wallace and Gromit Fan Site & Amazon shop with added content - income - offers from $100 - BIN: $400
  • gromit.biz - PR4 - Gromit Fan Site & Amazon shop with added content - income - offers from $100 - BIN: $300
  • comicleague.com - PR4 - Comic book and graphic novel Amazon shop with added content - income - offers from $100 - BIN: $350
  • captainamerica.us - PR4 - Captain America Fan Site & Amazon shop with added content - income - offers from $100 - BIN: $450

A few notices about the sites:
  • All the Amazon shop sites run on the paid version of the Associate-O-Matic (AOM) script which is NOT included. If you do not want to buy it, I will gladly downgrade the site to the free version for you.
  • Income: Because I cannot track sales from individual Amazon shops, I cannot give you a 100% accurate revenue figure. But I can make a guesstimate based on the type of product and because the AOM script notifies me when a buyer places something in the shopping cart. I'll be happy to provide Adsense and other affiliate income where I can track per site.
  • Stats: Just add /axs/ax-admin.pl to the end of the URL (e.g. wallaceandgromit.us/axs/ax-admin.pl). I can also provide Awstats screenshots if required.




===== SEVERAL ESTABLISHED XBOX SITES - XBOX360FAQ.COM + MORE - PR4-PR5 =====


xbox360faq.com- PR4

  • Description: Xbox 360 FAQ site running on phpMyFAQ. I do not have the time right now, nor (quite frankly) the knowledge, to devote to this site. As it is, there's a backlog of about 17 FAQ that need to be answered! So if you're knowledgeable about the Xbox 360, this site is for you. Lots of potential to become the definite Xbox 360 FAQ site on the net! Also a good site to compliment another Xbox site such as a forum or portal (hint!)
  • Script details: phpMyFAQ with PDF export, RSS feeds, admin backend, etc.
  • Domain age & details:
    • Created 09-May-2005
    • Best TLD name for a Xbox 360 FAQ site - 42,900,000 results on Google for "xbox 360 faq"
    • Expires on: 09-May-2007
    • Registrar: NameCheap
  • Site age & details:
    • 3 month old site
    • Has 51 pages (that's how many I generated a sitemap for: http://xbox360faq.com/generator/data/sitemap.html. P.S. the sitemap script can be included for an additional $12.)
    • PR4 with several internal PR3 pages
    • 2 Pages of added, relevant, content ("about Xbox 360" and "Xbox News", auto-updating via newsfeeds) - see footer for links to these pages
  • Traffic details:
    • Steadily increasing traffic, despite me not having actively promoted this site: 1805 uniques for 2006 so far (= about 20 uniques/day on average) - please note, this is mostly search engine traffic, I haven't actively promoted this site
    • Natural search engine traffic
    • Stats screenshots (click on thumbs for larger images)
    • More stats: http://xbox360faq.com/axs/ax-admin.pl (click on "View in Graphical Format") - please note, the "hits" here correspond more with "visits" than Awstats hits
  • Revenue details: only added Adsense very recently - none yet. Now that traffic is picking up, the site can be monetized better.
  • SEO details:
    • Search engine (short) friendly URLs
    • Submitted to all major search engines
    • High search engine rankings for several keywords/phrases (e.g. #3 in Google and MSN for "xbox 360 faq")
    • About 428 backlinks
    • Well-indexed, e.g.: MSN = 248 pages
    • Google and Yahoo sitemaps generated and submitted. Also has an HTML sitemap (see footer)
    • Proper htaccess and robots.txt files
  • Starting bid: $100 (with a reserve price)
  • BIN $550 - post SOLD to claim

I also have these Xbox sites and will update their info as I find time, or request same and I'll gladly comply:

  • xboxforum.us - PR5 - a few users - has been seeded with some 1,813 "posts" (mostly via RSS feed) - if you start building this now, it can be BIG - the definite Xbox forum in the US, maybe! : BIN = $500
  • xbox360net.net - PR4 - Amazon shop (paid script NOT included) - additional pages added - several sales + income : BIN = $450
  • myxbox360.net - PR4 - XBox 360 blog : BIN = $350 (I'm working on this - upgrading - so it may be down for a bit)

Some Xbox domains that I never found the time to develop:

  • xbox360help.net - $75 (can be a FAQ or "live help"-type site or forum)
  • thexbox360.info - $50 (good for general "info"-type portal, or shop)
  • xboxratings.com - GREAT name for ratings-type site (users submit their modded/pimped consoles for ratings, or just rate the different XBox hardware and software) - domain first registered 2004 - lots of potential - $250 (take it now, before I change my mind and develop this myself!)




===== A FEW FORUM SITES DEAD & ALIVE - PR0-PR5 - STUDENTSFORUM, STARWARS, EBAY, ETC - CHEAP =====

  • studentsforum.net - PR4 - nice name not many members yet, but has been "seeded" with 3,166 RSS-fed posts (and counting), ready for the new owner - 912 pages indexed in Google - $350 takes it
  • myebayforum.com - PR5 - got it a while ago, upgraded and cleaned it up, added some ads, little SEO (no active promotion), etc. - 196 pages indexed in Google - nice potential - $400
  • xboxforum.us PR5 - nice name - also on auto pilot with some 1,813 RSS fed posts (and counting) - some members - 709 pages indexed in Google - $450
  • starwarsforum.net - PR3 - nice name - on auto pilot with some 6,328 RSS fed posts (and counting) - some members - 456 pages indexed in Yahoo - $350
  • rantandraveforum.com - nice name/concept - runs on by PunBB - dead at the moment, but was planning to move it to phpBB and get it going again - 84 pages indexed in MSN - $100 (also includes rantandraveforums.com)
  • christmastalk.com - only PR2 now, but was higher (when I moved all my sites to a new server some months ago, I forgot about this one and it was down for a long time - therefore the PR drop - with some TLC + SEO leading up to XMas you could revitalize it easily) - 65 pages indexed in Google - only $110
  • thegadgetsworld.com (PR3) (thegadgetsworld.com/forums/ - PR2) - just recently bought this, changed the skin and migrated from plain phpBB to the "Fully Modded phpBB" system - still working on this one - have linked to it from some of my other sites, so PR should pick up soon - could be nice niche forum - 494 pages indexed in Google - only $150


Also some forum domain names ... (REMOVED, THEY ARE NOW HERE)

As requested, here's the income* for the comics sites:

  • captainamerica.us
    • Adsense: $10.54 since February 24
    • eBay: cant say, don't track/site
    • Amazon*: $247.40 total sales
  • comicleague.com
    • Adsense: $0.23 since June 12
    • Amazon*: $246.22 total sales
  • hitchhikersguide.ws
    • Adsense: $0.67 since April 27
    • Amazon*: $79.24 total sales
    BTW this site also includes the domains, thehitchhikersguide.biz and thehitchhikersguide.ws, which both redirect to the main site
  • wallaceandgromit.us
    • Adsense: $6.06 since March 13
    • Amazon*: $619.70 total sales
    I didn't realize until now how many sales this site has made - might have to reconsider the price ...
  • gromit.biz
    • Adsense: $1.74 since March 24
    • Amazon*: $24.41 total sales

*Amazon Income: Because I cannot track sales from individual Amazon shops (and I have many), I cannot give you a 100% accurate revenue figure. But I can make a guesstimate based on the type of product and because the AOM script notifies me when a buyer places something in the shopping cart (which, of course, does not guarantee he bought it). So the figures above represent total sales based on these notices, not commissions received.

How much is you take from the total sales
That differs because Amazon:

  • Is on a tiered commission system - the more you sell, the more you earn. I am generally at 6.5 - 7% at the end of a quarter (you may be on a lower or higher tier);
  • Even on the same tier, has different commissions depending on product, origin, etc. Examples for last quarter:
    • Captain America America Profile Officially Licensed Cotton T-Shirt Apparel Merchandise Large @ $19.95 x 6.52% = $1.30 commission
    • Wallace and Gromit: A Close Shave (Pop-up) (Wallace & Gromit) @ $2.48 x 6.45% = $0.16 commission
    • Wallace & Gromit: Cheese Lover's Yearbook @ $0.19 x 5.26% = $0.01 commission
    • Marvel Spider-man & the Marvel Universe Captain America Diecast Figure By Toy Biz @ $14.99 x 6.47% = $0.97 commission

So there is no easy way to estimate revenue, apart from actually adding up all the commissions manually (which is impossible, because you don't know from which sites they are!). As a very general rule of thumb, you may perhaps work with 6% commissions as a conservative estimate, 6.5% as a more liberal one. Based on this, for example, wallaceandgromit.us has made about $40.28 in Amazon commissions ($619.70 x 6.5%).


how many months are included in the total sales?
From the beginning of each site. You can see the date the site was started in the AXS stats. So, for example, if you go to http://wallaceandgromit.us/axs/ax-admin.pl you'll see the log (and site) was started on 2006-02-26.

Update: xbox360faq.com high bid $175 at DP

OK, I've had to move all my sites to a dedicated server, so that's why this thread went a bit quiet. I've reduced most prices for a quick sale (very limited time only):

  • hitchhikersguide.ws - PR4 - great name - about 750 backlinks - many pages indexed (e.g. 3,700 pages in Google!) - BIN now only $300 for limited time
  • wallaceandgromit.us - PR4 - nice name - about 950 backlinks - many pages indexed (e.g. 8,860 pages in Google!) - BIN now only $350 for limited time
  • gromit.biz - PR4 - cool name - about 794 backlinks - many pages indexed (e.g. 2,230 pages in Yahoo!) - BIN now only $250 for limited time
  • comicleague.com - PR4 - great, brandable, name - about 2,149 backlinks - many pages indexed (e.g. 5,410 pages in Google!) - #1 in Google and MSN for phrase "comic league" (OVT = 125 for "comic league", 11,600,000 results in Google for same) - BIN now only $350 for limited time (this price will be going up!) (FREE BONUS! To secure the "franchise" I've just registered the "thecomicleague.com" domain too and pointed it to the main site)
  • captainamerica.us - PR4 - great .US name (it's Captain AMERICA, after all!) - all other extensions taken - site that will increase in popularity closer to the upcoming movie - about 1,526 backlinks - many pages indexed (e.g. 1,770 pages in Google!) - OVT = 16,450 for "captain america", 54,100,000 results in Google for same! - BIN now only $400 for limited time

Posted on multiple forums. Post SOLD to claim @ BIN.

Free push to the current registrar. One month free hosting. Full instructions will be provided. Free email support while you host with me.
