This site is DMOZ listed (check) and comes up as #1 for most MSN searches related to this website, and #2 on Ask Jeeves for the term Tone Settings. Google has yet to fully index my site, though they regularly visit it. I received a PR 1 recently because Google thinks I only have 7 backlinks, when really I have over 35 in Yahoo, and over 45 in MSN (Yahoo, MSN). Since Google has been pretty screwy lately, I am predicting my PR will be about 4 when Google situates itself.

Now, let me introduce my website. Tone Settings is a website full of amplifier settings. Currently, we have 85 amp models to choose from, as well as 138 settings. Many of these are unique to this website. These settings basically explain what to set the controls on your specific amp to, and it describes what it sounds like. This is a very useful tool for many guitar and bass players alike, and may I mention, this is an EXTREMELY niche subject.

The entire website was made from scratch. This includes:

1. Custom design
2. Huge PHP system - everything is database-driven
3. Logo - includes the .PSD
4. Domain name

The PHP features include:

1. News System
2. Tones System
3. Links System
4. Comments System
5. Users Online
6. Contact Form

I've done alot of promotion and SEO work on this website. If you take a look, you'll notice that the URLs are similar to this: http://www.tonesettings.com/tone/Roland/201/208/Sweet-Strat-Blues-Rock.html

That file is not really an HTML file, it's a PHP file. This website makes great use of mod_rewrite, and all PHP files are viewed as HTML files. Also, each title and meta tags are dynamically changed for each tone setting and each amplifier category, so that it shows up nicely on search engines (as well as comes up first for terms related to that tone/amplifier).

This is an auction. Please post all bids in this thread and I will give feedback on each post. I can provide proof of stats and revenue if requested.

Current Offer: $500
BIN: $3000

How are tone settings added? From an admin panel? Can guests add them?

 

[dreamedia]

I'll offer $300.
Are you using a cms?

Bid withdrawn, sorry for wasting time. :td:

How are tone settings added? From an admin panel? Can guests add them?

For now, I just add them through PHPMyAdmin (in the cPanel) because I didn't bother making an admin panel since I was the only one using it. If the site gets sold for the BIN or close to it, I will add an admin panel for free. Guests can't add them, but they can use the contact form to submit their own.

I'll offer $300.
Are you using a cms?

Not exactly, although in a way, yes. All that would need to be done in order to call it a CMS would be to code the admin panel. In case you didn't realize, this entire site was custom made from scratch (by me), so no third party CMS scripts are involved.
