Traffic comes from Google News and other search engines, as well as sites that syndicate our content. Traffic has doubled since November 2005 due to the recent addition of many articles indexed by Google News.

Current highest offer is $500 via PM

 

[maroulis]

the revenue comes only from the top and left AdSense banners?

 

[marshall-7946]

That is correct

Do you have a screenshot with the actual channel available?

 

[marshall-7946]

Current highest offer is $600.

I also forgot to mention the auction ends Friday the 23rd at 5pm EST.

LiveArticles is the only site making any money through that adsense account, but I will get screenshots up.

Hey, take care, it's against Google TOS to show your CTR and eCPM. Yo can just show the impressions and total earnings.

 

[marshall-7946]

Seems I forgot to add the channel to some of the adsense code on the site. But I guarantee that the above revenue is all from LiveArticles or I will give you your money back.

I apologize for this mistake.

You are right, screenshot has been fixed.

Thanks for the reminder!

Nice site, so what exactly happens? Writers write articles and submit it to the site? Why do they do this and do you pay them? Not understadning how the "There are 142 registered writers" bit fits in.

Thanks

 

[marshall-7946]

The writers are not paid. Article submission is a great way to advertise for free as you can insert links into content rich articles.

Before you submit an article you must register, so we have a database of 142 writers, some active some inactive.

Thanks!

Sale pending, waiting on response from buyer.

Thank you all for your interest!
