Suggestion PLEASE - FAST

I am in the process of purchasing a site which sells plr products.
The site gets about 500 unique visitors per day so about 15k per month
revenue is about $100 per month (very low)

should I go for it?
3 year old domain lots of traffic

    And I got all the traffic reports, so it is good traffic from search engines
    May be a good shot what you think
    I know it is plr stuff, but I have ideas

    You need to figure this out first

    how much? list or leads already? costs to run it? how good you can market it? and what your plans to do with it? and How those 500 visitors a day are coming in now before you buy it?

    $500 is a good price for the revenue stream you're getting. But to keep that and build upon it you need to spend money to be acquiring fresh material all the time. You might want to take a close look at the inventory on hand and determine how much you'll need to invest monthly to maintain and grow your business. Good luck.

      Actually no investment monthly except the hosting I have and domain.
      But the traffic is great.

        Okay, the point I'm making is you need to spend money on new PLR material every month. That way you're able to offer fresh stuff to your customers. PLR stuff ages quickly so you absolutely have to keep getting more all the time.

        The beauty of PLR is, you can buy it cheap in 10 - 100 GB wholesale packages then break it up into smaller units and sell it. PLR is a very good business if you know what you're doing. Without knowing all the details, $500 seems to be a steal but you're going to have to put some money and effort into growing the business.

          Does anyone recommend an Outsource company to help do some tedious work?

    if it has that much traffic, as you say... it may be worth a shot... you will need to put in some quality time though... marking, etc... i'd go for it!

    Thanks everyone I just got it.
    Good info here.
    I pretty much got my 1 site making about $50 per day (automated)

    I actually have 80 products I can rebrand so may use this site to promote that.
    Thanks everyone

      I would have invested in it too as long as you have some ideas for it and the commitment to follow through. You can increase the revenue stream by building on the site and offering more than it offers now.

    I would say go for it. Even if you maintain the site. You will break even in 5 months. Now like you say if you have some ideas to grow it and increase the opt-in rate.

    I wish you luck with it.

    Use the traffic to drive them to other sites you have, or affiliate products and that way your getting a lot more for your money...$500.00 isnt too bad if you take advantage of the traffic and drive it to your other sites.

      I guess this is where I will from time to time ask people around here what is the best way to utilize the high traffic.

      From my understanding the PLR business is not what it used to be as people can just buy them really cheap in bulk.
      But I guess the questions is who are they people that are interestd in PLR.
      Usually people that need products to sell.
      So I guess just find new hot products and post them up.
      And / or post referal links to other hot PLR companies that provide commissions.

      If I tore down the site and started the site fresh with a different business model will I eventually LOOSE most/all the traffic since the search engines point to specific pages on the site?
      Will google eventually remove the search engine link since it is no longer available?

        Never tear down a site that is getting good traffic. I sold a site that was getting about 1,000 UVs per day. The guy tore it down to sell something quite different. He left statcounter in the site that I had installed, so I could see that he lost every bit of the traffic that I had built up on that site and most likely all of the revenue that the site was generating. Just add to the site and make it better but do not tear down a site that is getting good traffic.

          This is excellent advice. Another thing, don't change the business model either. Stay with PLR as I expect that's the type of targeted traffic you're getting. There's a fortune to be made with PLR if you go about it the right way.

    How long until you get your $100 / month back from your investment? Personally, a site that generates only $100 a month is a bit low to bother with.

    I would say yes.. spend $500.. but as long as you see in his/her reports that the traffic is legit from search engines.. I would also think of ways to earn more money be amazon, clickbank, CPA, just anything.
