What are these folks upto?
Dear
Dear Family........archiengi dot com.
I got a an email. I checked the site as below
I found that content is minimum. There are gallaries. There is a video and heavy load of Ads.
So I just re-searched on this site. Check these stats......
Well they say this site is $124,668 - Interesting value.....
Ok then look at this stats further....
Did you observe the following.....
- The site is 28 days old.......
- Heavily SEO indexed... ( Google Ads???)
- No much social sharing
- 100 bucks perday ad revenue estimate.
I assume that siteprice is genuine and a good estimate, Still I have the Q - WTF? How is this possible?
If so, what are we doing here?
Any thoughts?

Sridhar, check this :

- It says that this website has been newly registered with a short life expectancy, which follows the pattern used by many fraudulent and fake selling websites. Please be vigilant and take extra care before providing any payment information.
- I checked its page rank, it's Google Page rank is zero and has a poor PR quality.
It spells suspicious and fake. ;))
Yes Jewel, that's very helpful note. Thanks for jumping in.
Apparently there are no products and services. Still I am intrigued.
Hi Jewel,
I have not heard of scamadivser.com so out of curiosity I entered my URL and was a bit disappointed to receive this information regarding my site:
Notes:-
[Alert Result] The owner of the website is using a service to hide their identity
[Alert Result] This website is 182 Days old
[Alert Result] The website expected life (366 days) is relatively short.
Analysis Details:-
Although this website appears to be based in United States there are other countries involved and you should review this information carefully and decide if it is as you expect.Although being a new website, does not make it un-trustworthy, as with any new business you should be extra vigilant and do your own research before placing an order or making an investment.
This site is using an anonymous service - which prevents us from identifying the site owner. This can sometimes be just so that the owner does not receive spam, but be aware that many scam sites use this as a method to hide their identify. If this is an ecommerce site - we would suggest you confirm the business address with the website owners.

I sent contacted them to let them know that my site is not fraudulent and that I am using the Whois guard. I asked to have my status changed. Not sure if my email will help but I figured it is worth a try.
That's really strange. It's registered in Denmark and a Godaddy site.
If anyone's interested you can buy archiengi dot net for around $3! Any takers?
If you have the right images t seems you can pull in the crowds. Has to be something unusual.
So, I was quite intrigued by this and keep coming back here looking for explanations.
I just took another close look at the site. It is quite a mish-mash of unrelated posts.
Could it be that each of those posts have excellent keywords attracting that much traffic?
It is bizarre. I'm not even sure I would give it a close look if I came across it randomly.
So I just had a look at the site and there is a lot of stuff, most related to architecture and engineering, but also some odd stuff. Here is what stood out:
-There are posts from 2014 (so the site can't be that new)
-Most posts contain only a paragragh or so, the rest are images
-at the bottom of many posts it says something like "shared via forexample.com). When you click on that link it takes you to another site with the exact same article
-found one lengthy article that was about freezing away fat cells and it had 7.4k shares. When I went back in to double check that number it all of a sudden had 0 shares
-not sure why there are articles related to weight loss
-about section is very vague, talks about engineering and architecture with this as the last paragraph

Anyone else find these things a bit strange?
Wow, I wish I could answer this, but I can't. I am just as stumped as you are. Hopefully someone can share some insights with us. I don't even know how to pronounce the name of the sight.
Tanja - some guy has Architecture and Engineering as theme.....
Archiengi - so domain name does not matter, looks like
He has huge content. It is like a directory not a website.
So many ads there..... I think there is lot of thought and planning gone in this authority site.... But I am baffled.... $3000/m revenue even before 1 month old baby site??? Phew..........
There are possibilities Tanja...
I would be curious, how much this guy is paying for ads or it is complete organic traffic. May be SEO, as google index is good....
Will wait for others to comment as well, we have stalwarts in this family....
I didn't actually click on the site. I will take a closer look. Something didn't seem right about it.

hello Sridhar, very interesting, but you know what anything and I mean absolutely anything I look at- I do my due diligence to cover my butt! I am very very skeptical when it comes to anything out there and especially over inflated claims of vast wealth quickly.If that was the case shouldn't everyone be a millionaire? we have a saying in our house, if it seems to good to be true it probably is! Always intriguing to have a look anyhow! cheers :)
