If you’re stupid, then you have more traffic!
The title isn’t really true, it might be in some cases, but for sure this is a new method to drive traffic to your blog/website. How is this done? Well all you need is around 40$ to buy marketplace credits on sitepoint.com, list your website or blog into the ”Premium websites for sale” category and then set the bin (buy it now) to around 100k$. Also think of something stupid to write in the description zone. Here is one example which in my opinion is funny and deserves a prize.
Gift card messages dot com has an Alexa rank of about 400k, 100 unique visitors/day and Google Pagerank 0. The owner sets the BIN at 80000$. The problem is he really thinks that his website is worth that much and he argues with all the guys who posted an opinion. Now here’s the funny part:
As I said within just 2 months a brand new website from un-rank to 398,677 is a quick grow. After 1 month using Google Adwords I’ve learned that there are a lot of users who were looking for messages to write in their cards. The idea of GiftcardMessages.com is unique and you won’t see many website like it around. If you guys have money, then should invest in it now and do more advertise. I believe GiftcardMessages.com will become more popular in no time.
The price maybe is too high for a new website 2 months old but its future is so bright. This is a high demand website without competitors. You won’t get this price next year when it ranks 50K on Alexa and has PR=5 plus
…
Why would I? You will be regretted if next year you hear this site is sold $500K – you could make $450K right now – no kidding.
Isn’t that funny? It is if you have a little knowledge about selling websites…
So what do you get if you buy 40$ worth of credits on sitepoint.com?
- First of all a nice experience and we all have a good laugh!
- A link on sitepoint which is good.
- Bad reputation which might transform into good reputation if your website or blog has great content.
- A bunch of links from websites that write about your listing on sitepoint – like I did, because it’s funny and I think it’s a great method to increase your blogs/website exposure.
- A lot of traffic from sitepoint and the rest of websites that wrote about you!
Also take a look at the following auctions:
John Cow dot Com – an intelligent guy who canceled the auction after getting his piece of exposure.
