    Websites are worth Monthly income x 3............

    I see this thrown around here all the fucking time. Anyone actually have some sites generating income they would sell for a mere 3 x monthly revenue?

    If so hit my ass up, I'll try and take over the world.

      I've seen even better than that.
      but most knew they were probably screwed a couple months down the track.

            12 months gross is a far cry from 3 months of revenue / profit depending on who you talk to.

            I'd do the same with just about anything I own online.

                no way?

                my point being that even at 6 months rev, it's a joke to sell...

                  Yea but it's not like if you buy a straight business . there are way more risk . The owner makes the website . If you change owner it might just go down . Paysites are a little more stable but the best example is absolut-series . His traffic dropped by 3/4 when he changed owner . Call-Kelly dropped a lot too .

                        Don't think anyone would sell unless they really need the money or they are planning to quit. What about the initial investment the webmaster put into the site?

                              getting proof of the income source is key of course

                              There is a couple people that have been purchasing sites for their traffic numbers lately and I just shake my head, I wonder if they realize how bogus those numbers COULD be.

                              the project ID and programmer I blotted out in the hopes it won't be too easy for others to find and try to purchase the same thing

                                Why on earth would someone sell a revenue producing site for 3 months x sales?

                                          great thread and great points.
                                          I also have no idea why people usually tend to say that domains / sites are worth only 3 months income.
                                          Now I see often more and more people saying we the price should be based on 3 years income .
                                          I don't use ICQ anymore.

                                                  It aways depends on the site ... Sites with lot of bookmarkers / stable traffic / lot of liscenced content are worth much more then 3 months . TGPS with only ucj and a design that have trading tgps are worth 3 months.

                                                    as if there was a fixed x3 formula lol
                                                    it all depends on how stable the traffic/source of income is

                                                    you calculate more for a paysite with active members than for a search engine project that can drop within one update

                                                    the reason why this x3 thing came up because mostley TGPS and freesites were sold...
                                                    nohahahaha can ensure you that they won't lose traffic making it a sometimes very risky investment

                                                    i brought quite a lot of sites in the past months always had to calculate with different factors...

                                                          The U.S. Supreme Court is going to make an important ruling in the next few months. I wouldn't buy anything adult based in the U.S. until after that ruling.

If the Supreme Court comes down the wrong way, all free adult sites in the U.S. will be illegal. Even paysites with tours will be in violation of the law, retroactively.

                                                                  I wouldn't make any big purchases or U.S. based adult sites right now.

                                                                                    You said you placed the ad in newspaper, it seemed to me like if you wanted to sell to someone already involved in this industry, you would had posted that on this or any other adult webmaster message board, like most people do.
                                                                                    exactly my point, posting it on these boards would get a bunch of idiots with zero cash talking shit about a solid business with a 4 year track record.

                                                                                    People if you have a good income generating business advertise it somewhere other then adult boards, you will be msup[rised how many people know this business inside out and look at it like any other business.

                                                                                    Crackdown is coming here and there and bullshit stories this is great for either people involved in shady sites or people who love drama.

                                                                                          bids

                                                                                          Just like this thread noone admits to selling for less then 24 months revenue and if this was something for sale they would all be offering 3 months or less. Lots of noise but also lots of lurkers with business sense.

And its ok for them bc whats 400 500 bucks to learn the business.. You have to start some where.. Its the only way to actually start talking to webmasters and generating thoughts and skills to build a better buisness. But if you do have a great business and making whatever annuel income why the heck would you sell unless you wanted out. Its the only reason I would think a person would want to get out.
