Hi
I am selling all of my bebo related websites. I started them in August 2007 and it has become one of the most popular bebo related websites around. Very little compeititon as there are no other websites like it. bebobox.com provides users with everything they need about the social network bebo.com. It also allows users to search/upload bebo skins and we now have the largest skin directory on the net. The bebobox forum is one of the most active and popular bebo forums around with over 13,400 registered users, over 5200 posts and over 810 topics. I also have a Bebo Topsite where users can add their page to compete to get the top by sending trafic to the site. I have included two proxy servers which a very popular and used by alot of people at school (they are hidden with a google sidebar, drag it to the left to hide the proxy, drag it to the right to show it). I own 128 bebo accounts which have tens of thousands of page views and tens of thousands of friends. I use them to generated alot of trafic.

I run all this a managed VPS which costs me £35 per month. Hosting is not included in price but you can have my VPS account if you pay the monthly fees.
I set this site up due to the great demand for a bebo resource site for skins and cheats. This has proved very popular. My main aim was to create a well established site with an active user base which i achieved. My next aim was to generate an income from the site due to its high number of hits. Unfortunately i no longer have the time to run the site as i am going to university which is my reason for selling so i can concentrate on my studies. In the last month a have put some advertisements using ValueClickMedia on the site which generates £50 a week. This money is made from banner ads on each site, accept the proxies. I have not optimized the ad placements in any way, but if you were to do this and possibly use Google Adsense you would stand to make
alot more money. Just look at the total impressions, you can decide how much you could make!
I dont spend any money on advertising, never have. All the trafic is generated through the 128 accounts, search engines and word of mouth. The site is fully SEO with great search engine rankings for popular bebo search queries such as 'bebo cheats'. The bebo skins on the site are also SEO and the tittle is in the format of 'BeboBox.com - *Skin name* Bebo Skin' so when people search for specific bebo skins on google, bebobox is usually top. I have submited google sitemaps to google for the main site and the forum for best indexing.
The main site is a custom made PhpNuke site. There is an admin panel which allows you to moderate all the bebo skins on the site and all skins need to be approved before they show. There is a internal search feature and categories to browse skins.
I have created all the bebobox pages which relate to bebo, this covers everything from bebo tutorials to cheats. There is also a very detailed tutorial on how to create bebo skins.
I get alot of comments and emails saying thanks for bebobox and how much it has helped them.
I was very reluctant to sell this site due to it huge potential, but i dont have much choice with uni.
You could easily do nothing with this site and it would still grow and earn you money. However, with some advertisments and link exchanges it would increase in hits dramatically. You should also place the banners ads in better places and maybe use google adsense who pay alot alot more.
I have no asking price. The site currently earns on average $5200 a year with minimal effort. You do you predictions on its potential.
