The Frigid CSS Gallery
CSSice is an upcoming CSS gallery website that showcases some of the finest CSS web designs on the Internet today. We concentrate on showcasing only the highest quality designs on a frequent basis.
Stats

As you can see, search engine traffic is slowly on the up as well.
The website also has approximately 12 RSS subscribers to date.
Promotion
I have not done much in terms of promotion for the website at all. I have done the usual (submitting to directories, other galleries, etc.), and purchased paid advertisements in one or two places:
TutorialGod - 2 Months - Expires 26th August 2008
Qdoos - 2 Months - Expires 24th August 2008
In terms of SEO, I've done some work, and receive a bit of traffic for the search term 'CSS gallery' - I predict this will get better over a sustained period of linkbuilding as the targeted keyword is very competitive.
Revenue
Revenue for the website has been fair for the time it has been up. A banner was purchased at $6 for the month, and also a text-link has been purchased by
Dynamic Drive for a constant $10 per month. I have also an interested advertiser who wishes to purchase a banner spot at $10 for a month, bringing total potential revenue to $26 for the initial month. Although the amount is small, I predict it would double/triple for next month with the work being put into the website.
Why am I selling?
One of the reasons for running CSSice was to see how hard it was in terms of SEO to get near the front-page for certain competitive keywords; but I have lost the drive and interest in SEO to continue with this experiment. Therefore, I'm passing on the website to someone who has good marketing knowledge in general to take it to the next level.
Domain
The domain is registered at NameCheap, and expires Sun 06/21/2009.
I'm looking for
approximately $300 for the website, although offers not at $300 are welcome.
If you have any questions or offers in regards to the website, don't hesitate to get in touch via PM or replying to this thread.
The one who purchases the website will be responsible for transfer, all login details will be provided. The site is based on WordPress.
Regards,
Taiyab.
