Status On My Web Projects
Well, I have started the game of buying and selling websites. I just purchased King of Arcades - kingofarcades.com last week. It is a flash gaming website with over 2,400 flash games. It is receiving decent traffic from a variety of sources, both organic search traffic, social bookmarking traffic and man other sources. It has a lot of work to be done on it. My goals are to buy and sell sites for profit, of course that is the idea,..right? This is the first stepping stone in what I plan to do. The King of Arcades has a Page Rank (PR) of 2, so I will be doing link exchanges to build up my PR, to one day be able to sell links on my site like I do with MyDentify, my business directory
AmericanEskimoZone is really starting to pick up traffic and it is not even complete yet. I really hope people do not get disappointed seeing a few broken links. I plan on completing this project within the next 2 months. Serious content needs to be added for me to be satisfied. It is starting to show a great potential for what it can be. I just need some time to work on it. There will be some serious content additions fairly soon, as referral keywords are inspiring me to create content based on what users are searching for.
I have been running a New Years promotion on MyDentify.com now for about a week and it has been a huge success so far. There have been over 1,000 user submitted links, and users have requested 5 new categories to place add their link to. Currently the promotion is, free links into the directory, which is normally $5.99. Featured links remain the same price at $22.99. But evey free link entered, counts as 1 ticket to win 5 featured links. I made a few changes to the website, removing the bottom ad unit, larger font sizes on paginated pages, just some minor appearance things that have been bugging me for a while.
I have wanted to buy a proxy for a long time now, but its a very large server hog, so I might stay away from that for a while. My web budget is starting to expand with revenue from MyDentify and my other revenue streams so who knows what the future will bring. As long as I stay focused, it should be nothing short of my goals.
