Johnny Chan Poker Site for Sale

[Zilla]

BIN reduced to $1,800 - first offer received will get the site

Summary

I am selling one of my sites that I built up a few years ago as I am tied up in a few bigger projects for the foreseeable future and just do not have the time to move this site forward – so I am going to release it from my portfolio for someone else to do so.

johnnychan-poker(dot)com is a website that was developed at the same time as the launch of Chan Poker. It has a custom design and contains clean SEO friendly code and structure.

The site has a good keyword rich domain name and dominates the serps for Johnny Chan related terms. It seems to be widely misconstrued online as the official site of Johnny Chan judging by the number of emails I get trying to contact Johnny with business propositions and other requests!


Site Age / Trust

The site is 2.5 years old and is well trusted by the search engines. There have never been any links sold on the site nor any blackhat techniques used.


Keywords

The site ranks at the top of google for all Johnny Chan / Chan Poker related terms and has done for the past 2.5 years.

A small sample of ranking terms in google.com:

johnny chan – 2nd
chan poker - 3rd
johnny chan poker 3rd & 4th (double listing)
chanpoker – 4th
chan poker online – 1st
chanpoker.com - 4th
chan academy - 4th


Traffic

Traffic for the last 6 months is as follows:

Sep-09 Visitors 336 Pageviews 693
Oct-09 Visitors 610 Pageviews 1591
Nov-09 Visitors 523 Pageviews 1153
Dec-09 Visitors 591 Pageviews 1478
Jan-10 Visitors 721 Pageviews 1810
Feb-10 (part up to 15th Feb) Visitors 700 Pageviews 1691


Revenue

The site used to promote Chan Poker before it went out of business and at that time it was bringing in between 5 and 10 RMPs per month. Since then the traffic has grown.

When Chan Poker went out of business I was tied up in other bigger projects and didn’t really have a lot of time to spend on the site and so I just quickly converted it to a site that promotes Full Tilt Poker instead of Chan Poker with a sort of Play with the Pros / Play with Johnny Chan kind of theme.

I have no information on how many Full Tilt players the site is sending as it was just setup on my main full tilt trackers.


Sale Price

As mentioned above I do not have current information on how many players per month is being sent to Full Tilt so I have priced the site for sale based on 2 CPAs per month ($300)– which I think is very conservative pricing.

The minimum offer is based on 6 months revenue = $1,800

The BIN price is based on 12 months revenue = $3,600


About Me / Questions

I have done business with a number of people over the years here who should be able to vouch for me. I run a network of gambling sites which you can find details of at egamingmedia(dot)com

My post count on PAL is low because I do not post so often anymore but I still lurk and do a lot of business in the background with members here. I have been a member of all Jeremy’s forums pretty much since the start of PAW back in 2004.

I’m open to discuss any payment options and am also happy to use ESCROW if the buyer so wishes and we’ll split the fees between us.

Any questions please fire me a PM and I’ll get back to you asap.

Thanks

Adrian.

Has Johnny ever contacted you? Is it considered a fan site? I always wondered the legal grounds of owning a domain with a well known name and making money with there name.

The domain was registered and the site was developed with the express permission of Johnny and the Chan Poker management - so there are no issues with this.

Some interest in this site, but no firm offers received. Looking to either sell this now or keep it and move on.

So the first firm offer I receive now I will sell to so effectively reduces the BIN to the min offer amount and makes the BIN = $1,800

Great aged site with good content, great established search engine rankings, lots of backlinks and clean SEO'd code - to pick up for $1.8k I think is a great deal.

Offer is valid until the end of the weekend Sunday 7th March.

Thanks

Adrian.
