    How Much Am I Worth?

    I am trying to figure out what my business is worth. This includes My real name Melissa Harrington which if you web search comes up thousands of times from my public nudity stuff last year. I also own my domians which are: melissalincoln.com, lincolnmelissa.com, hotmelissa.com, hotmelissa.net, melissamidwest.com, melissamidwest.net, midwestmelissa.com, midwestmelissa.net just to name a few. I would say I get about 300,000 hits a day combined from them. Also all my picture's and video's basicly my company as a whole. I am building a new home and the bank wants to know what my business is worth and I have no idea what to tell them. Any info would help a ton! Thanks, Melissa

            I hate to say it, but they may not see the domain names as a valueable item. They sometimes do not realize what something like that can be worth. So be careful putting together the numbers that you need.

                Take your monthly income and multiply by 3, that's roughly what you'd get for your holdings in the open market.

                Saw you at Internext btw, you're one hot baby!

                  Basically take what you make every year and multiply it by 3 years.. should be a good enough number

                        6 months net income. Thjey bank really does not care as they loan on income not assets. So this is more then conservative and realistic.

                          My site's generates about $60k a month but that is before affilates are paid and ccbill is paid. I also make another $50k a year doing appearances/parties and such. Then I do a few magazines a year and make about another $50k! I hope to make more this year with my new DVD project that I just started but like I said any idea at all would really help! Melissa

                              Open up in nasdaq See what type of IPO listing you can get Price per share..

                              If there was some type of product you could base it on lol.

                                  The thing with single girl sites like yours it is 60K/month wont last for long... Next year it will be less.. The next even less.. and so on..

                                    multiply what your gross income is for the year by 1.6 (low) and times 3 (high) for adult internet.

                                      3 years holds up in brick and mortar businesses better than it does on the web I think.. I've never heard of anyone getting more than 3 months. That doesn't mean it hasn't happened, but I haven't heard about it if it has.

                                      Maybe for a bank valuation you could make that number stand.

                                          It really depends on what you are selling on what it is worth. Some stuff there is no way its worth 3 years. My program I wouldnt even consider selling for 3 years Net.

                                          But she is trying to finance a house so she wants it to look as good as possible so I say go for 3 years


                                          Well, what you got to sell?

                                            3 months is ridiculous though.. I dont know anybody that would sell their business for 3 months worth of profits...

                                                  I am sure you are right but I have very good credit and some money in the bank. They are going to approve me it's more of an issue of what rate I will qualify for. Not exactly sure why but are wanting to know how much my business is worth and how I came up with the number.

                                                    The best answer I can give is 2.5 times yearly earnings is probably what you would get if you gave someone enough content updates to run the sites until they died.

                                                    If it were more consolodated that would be better too me thinks.

                                                    Wanna kick me some traffic for being a helluva guy ;) ?

                                                      It really depends on what you are selling on what it is worth. Some stuff there is no way its worth 3 years. My program I wouldnt even consider selling for 3 years Net.

                                                      But she is trying to finance a house so she wants it to look as good as possible so I say go for 3 years


                                                      Well, what you got to sell?
                                                      on 1.5 yrs darkcavern.com money alone I could retire if I didn't have to pay my overhead. It may not be Silvercash money but I could get by on the interest without touching the principle. Add in Fetishbucks.com etc and you're talking about one whopping shitload of money.

                                                      I wouldn't sign a non-compete though ;)

                                                        Oh really? How many single sites have you run?

                                                        A good single site grows each year. Her's is one that can and will.

                                                        Keep the way you are going Mel and you will double your income next year. I applaud you. You turned a bad into a good and profited by it. Never seen it done before and I doubt I ever see it again.

                                                        Good for you!

                                                        SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.

I also make another $50k a year doing appearances/parties and such. Then I do a few magazines a year and make about another $50k! I hope to make more this year with my new DVD project that I just started but like I said any idea at all would really help! Melissa

                                                                          Keep the way you are going Mel and you will double your income next year. I applaud you. You turned a bad into a good and profited by it. Never seen it done before and I doubt I ever see it again.

                                                                          Good for you!

I made over $30,000 from Gallery Magazine for winning the Girl Next Door of the Year alone. I also do ads for magazines and clothing companies. I would say $50k was just what I am claiming because I have to for tax reasons. Melissa

I made over $30,000 from Gallery Magazine for winning the Girl Next Door of the Year alone. I also do ads for magazines and clothing companies. I would say $50k was just what I am claiming because I have to for tax reasons. Melissa

I understand my looks will run out before too long. I am putting about half down on the house. All I wanted to know was how much my business was worth because the bank asked and I had no idea what to tell them. I didn't need a lesson in how much you think magazines pay or don't pay but thanks. The only reason I put that in the post was because people said that was the only way for them to tell me. Melissa
