Established Windows Vista Site - 5,500 Uniques/mth

[tolkein]

Auction ends in 10 minutes!

Let's see if I can sell this Windows Vista site early - funwithvista.com

I only started adding news, Adsense and stuff late this month so below are the relevant info:

1. Registered: 22Jul at RF
2. Backlinks on MSN/Google/Yahoo: 30/6/23

3. Avg. Traffic (17~26Jul): 183 Uniques/day
4. Projected: 5,490/mth

5. Themed Backlinks (exl. blogs, directories, etc) PR4 and above:
3xPR5, 2xPR4 (links placed on the frontpage)

6. Google Adsense (last 7 days):
- page impressions: 3,976
- clicks: 68
- CTR: 1.7%
- earnings: $4.45
- projected earnings: $19.00/mth

The domain is based on the highly popular funwithxp.com and it should pick up a good PR in the next update.

I'd expect mid $xxx based on the strength of the domain, effort for the quality frontpage link exchanges, revenue and increasing traffic.

Of course, if I hold on till after the PR update and Windows Vista release, prices will be quite different

Anyone else? Everything's already there - just start inserting your pop-up ads, etc.

Most importantly, the traffic's growing and there's a GREAT potential.

Even established sites are writing me to request link exchange Check out this email:

Within the next 24hours or the first person who offers $500.

Yesterday was a new record - 264 unique visitors. Auction ends in 2 hours.

Rex_b is the highest bidder at $300.

 

[tolkein]

Sold! Pending payment.

GeorgeB: I should've read your rating first before I even bothered to respond to your "un-genuine" interest. Don't worry, you are now barred from all my future sales.

 

[rex_b]

Payment sent.

1) I gave you your first bid. If that's not interest I don't know what is....

2) You're upset because I didn't bid higher to get you more money, period... In retaliation you gave me Trader Rating on a sale I wasn't even a part of? (reported to the mods by the way, you can't give negative TR because I chose not continue bidding after I was outbid.)

The question I asked was to find out how long I would have to wait and I'm sure EVERYONE interested in the sale would have wanted to know that as well. That's just common sense. Again your anger over not getting more money is keeping you from being able to see that. You're fault for not stating it in the first place, not mine.

Barred from you sales? Letting personal issues get in the way of making you money is why you'll always be a small fry, as you are now.

Thanks and good luck

Clearly implies that you want to make a bid but would like to know the end time first - come on, the forummers here are not dumb.

The question I asked was to find out how long I would have to wait

What wait? You were already outbidded before you asked your question.

Anyone else who's interested, do take a look at GeorgeB's rating. Seems I wasn't the only one who experienced this - he has a history for this. I suggest you take precautions when he makes a bid/offer.

Anyway, the site has been sold. It's very childish of you to bitch about it in public, but I'm glad cos this way the forummers can make their own smart deduction.

Mod, please close the thread.

 

[GeorgeB]

A) You made the comment about me in public hence you were the one to bring it public. Doesn't that make you the childish one? How can you say I "bitched" about it in public when you did it yourself and you did it first? I was simply replying to your statement.

B) You are simply proving me right. You are so upset that I didnt continue bidding that you are trying your best to "get back at me". The admins already proved you were wrong when they removed the ridiculous TR you left me.

Why can everyone see it but you? As for my TR, fact is between here SitePoint, DNF, and various other forums I've exchanged more cash than your parents make in a year. No one would be foolish enough to turn down a good bid because of anything you've said here except you.

 

[axilant]

George B, is a good buyer. Thats the end of it. I have dealt with this person once before, and id be happy to do it agian.

 

[killaklown]

GeorgeB, giving him a negative tr is just childish.

I've exchanged more cash than your parents make in a year.

honestly, that doesnt impress me or anyone else, if anything i think it makes you even more childish.

I really hate when people say stuff like that. i could exchange cash with someone in my family over and over and then go say that i exchanged more cash then you make in a year.

anyways, this is really a stuiped reason to argue.

GeorgeB is a good buyer/seller, same with tolkien.

The only reason i posted here is because you gave tolkien a negative tr, after you talk about the tr he left you...

anyways im not coming back to this thread, just thought i needed to say this.

 

[GeorgeB]

You're right, that cash comment of mine was childish.... However it wasn't meant to impress you. It was to point out that I've done a lot of transactions and will continue to do so whether I bid on his sales or not. Guess I could have gotten that point accross without the parents part eh. Ah well I just have a bad habit of letting people bring that out in me sometimes

In any case I'm sure the mods will remove the TR I gave him soon. I gave that to him before I reported what he gave me, which was the right thing to do in the first place.

 

[tolkein]

If you want more proof, just read his ratings from other sellers.

And check out my other sale here

He bidded for $80, but doesn't even respond when the price was lowered to $69. Genuine interest? You decide.

Btw, your arrogance only makes you look even more silly in the forum - "I've exchanged more cash than your parents make in a year."
