Some Important Notes:
Sale will NOT include monthly hosting (Site is currently hosted on a dedicated server based in Chicago and fully managed by Cirtex Hosting at $250/month with the following specs:
DEDICATED LINUX SERVER
Core 2 Duo 6400 Processor
4GB DDR 800 Ram
1x350GB SATAII Drive
cPanel w/ Fantastico + All FFMPEG installed
100mbit unmetered bandwidth
I have direct contact with the Cirtex CEO, so I can help with arrangements for either staying on with Cirtex or transferring to another host. To help with hosting decisions, I can provide server stats upon request. On record though, I have to say I've been happy with Cirtex's support, handling, and performance.
ThePinoyTUBE currently has 5-6 banner advertisers whose advertisements will have to be completed through the end of their previously-purchased contract term. For current advertising prices, please see ThePinoyTUBE's Advertiser Section (new owner can set the prices to a different rate upon the end of each advertiser's contract term).
Source of revenue currently streams in from banner advertisements, text ads from AdBrite/AVNAds and Adendage, and other Affiliate programs such as Fling.com, FilipinoFriendfinder, Moneytree, etc.
Current monthly revenue with the above ranges on the low end of $300 to high of $1,000, and has the potential to bring in more with the proper handling. (I've simply run out of time to devote to site maintenance and marketing)
Current marketing efforts: none (no banner, text ads, or even search engine submission), but the site continues to bring in hundreds of new registrants and thousands of video views a day. All users are opt-
in registrants.
The website has a very user-friendly backend where the owner can control pretty much everything on the site from managing members to managing videos, server details, etc.
