We then would split the revenue with the domain owner.
We've tested it on a portfolio of mixed quality (a lot of the sites were odd but ok for SE's) and although it earned money weekly, the traffic was a lot of typein Asian traffic that most sites haven't been able to monetize, so it was hard to convert majority of it, making continuing the project cost prohibited. Now with more sites using alternative billing, that portfolio may have performed better.
Our system would be great to use for anyone with a ton of domains, but the hours it takes to sign up for the programs, categorize them, and write original descriptions on would definitely be a full time thing so I feel your pain.
Purrrhaps we can see if there is synergy with combining the scripts. My developer and author of the software is up North in Jacksonville, FL. I would love to put you guys together, it may be time to take it down from the shelf, dust it off and get it running again. We've had a couple domain owners hit us up recently but even when combined, the number of quality urls in the portfolios weren't big enough to put man hours into it to get it going.

My project started off as something that would take me about 10 minutes per a domain to setup. Now that I am finished with the features it probably takes more like 2-4 hours to fill out a domain. I tend to over complicate stuff, but the more features the cooler it ended up being.
I wouldn't do the work on each site myself since I have a lot of domains I want to set this up for. I have data entry people who can copy and paste and do a little thinking for like $6 an hour. SO if you have 1000s of domains this might not be what you looking for. It is a lot more than a landing page, it's a full blown site. The cool part is once it is built out it will run itself and update itself with little to no work on your end.
I geared these sites towards getting traffic from the SE's but also to make them viable sites that you can do link trades with people and/or send your own traffic to it.
Can I ask, how did you plan on marketing or selling the script? Selling a lifetime license, selling the code and letting them support it and make changes to it, or the noob approach where all they do is buy a domain and you host the site, setup it all up etc... and charge them a monthly fee. I just don't know what to do with this and if I do anything with it I want to make sure it isn't costing more than I am making.
I'll have some screen shots of the admin and over view up later tonight if anyone wants to check it out, just let me know and leave your email.
