Did you hear about the latest sale of websites online? No? Take a look:

Financial info site BankRate is expanding its financial product listings, as its acquiring Bankaholic, which provides info on deposits, savings accounts, and money market accounts. The company will pay $12.4 million up front, with another $2.5 million possible earn out over the next 12 months. Bankaholic’s sole employee John Wu will assist in the transition and remain for an unspecified period of time.

This tells us one thing: There are corporations out there which are willing to pay out $15 million for a financial related web site.

But why? While trying to find out why bankaholic was worth so much we turned to Google and Alexa. We asked Google how many back links the site has and this is what we saw:

Results 1 - 10 of about 672 linking to bankaholic.com. (0.10 seconds)

We went to Alexa to find out about the traffic it gets because of the positions bankaholic has on the Google search engine thanks to those hundreds of back links.

Alexa tells us that bankaholic has a rank well within the top 45,000 best visited websites on the USA internet. And, trust me, these figures mean that bankaholic gets its traffic alright. And, although they are now (recently) using adwords as well as a way to get traffic we are sure that most visitors come to the site by organic traffic the site gets.

So, it takes around 600 back links to get a credit / bank related site ranked on the first pages of Google.
And, that is where you come in.

The team behind credit-deal.com are looking for around 1000 marketers / webmasters who own one or more websites preferably with a Google PR. These 1000 people will be eligible to receive up to $8,000 (or more) for placing links back to credit-deal.com.

The back link has to remain on the websites for a period of one year at least.

How to earn $8000 or more for a link on your page:

People who would like to participate please place a link to the site http://credit-deal.com (without www.!) and use any keywords related to credit and loans as the anchor text. Keywords like credit cards, personal loans, loans, payday loans, credit card comparison and so on. I am sure you get the idea. (Have a look to the right, you see our version of the link on “payday loans” as our link back to credit deal.)

After you have placed your links please leave a message on http://credit-deal.com/contact-us/ with the domain name on which you have placed your links and the date you have placed the links.

After they receive the message the credit-deal team will review your site(s), verify the links and will reply to you by email. Once you have received the email from them you will be eligible for your share of the sale, should the site sell. They aim to sell the site within one year.

The idea behind it is this:
In their opinion, the domain credit-deal.com is much more attractive and marketable for in the finance / credit / loan market then bankaholic.com will ever be. And, we do agree with them on that point.

The difference with the two sites here is that bankaholic has so many back links it gets a lot of its traffic from search engines like Google. It is because of this that the site has become so valuable.

If 1000 people will link back to Credit Deal using high traffic keywords as anchor text, the site is bound to be ranking, if not out ranking sites like bankaholic within some time.  The team behind credit-deal.com will in the meantime work hard to publish quality content to guarantee the likings of Google and co.

So, with the amount of back links and quality content the site eventually grabs the attention of the big corporations and automatically becomes valuable real estate for companies like Bankrate who paid $15,000,000 for Bankaholic…

Should the site then sell for $10,000,000 or more credit-deal.com will use $8,000,000 to be split with whoever placed a link bank to credit-deal.com. Should there be 1000 people that would be $8000 each. In our opinion, that would be a very nice bonus!

It is most certainly worth a try and a fun thing to do. And, all it costs you is a back link which could turn in to around $8000 or more at the end of the year or as soon as the site is sold!

We signed up, do you want to help them with this and have a chance of earning around $8000 or more?

If so, take action and place a link to their site on your pages, visit the contact page on http://credit-deal.com/contact-us/, send them your domain witht the link and wait for their answer. That is all that there is to it. If they sell, it will be the easiest money you’ll ever make.
