What's it really worth?

[justjeff]

I own a youtube-like 'upload your own video site' that's basically become 95% porn, and for various reasons, am looking to move on. It has:

~ Normal video uploading
~ Live webcam recording (via Flash comm)
~ Basic video phone integration (phone to site)
~ Tested but not advertised site to phone (MMS) integration
~ 60,000 user accounts
~ 5,000 unique daily visitors
~ Top 500 site in Malaysia (Alexa ranking)
~ Fully templated, should be very easy to re-skin with a more modern design

The site was pulling ~250GB/day before I tossed some limits up to save some cash, now down to about ~50G/day in bandwidth, could be MUCH cheaper if moved to a datacenter with better (cheaper) connectivity. Earning about $10/day in ppc ads, and a very modest amount of paypal-based recurring subscriptions (about a dozen at $50/year, a couple dozen at $5/month).

As a full adult site, the site probably has MUCH more revenue potential (even if you're just using it to drive traffic), but I've been trying to "hide" the adult side of things for the past 2 years, and it's just not happening. I'm just a PHP developer, so I'm really interested to know what GFY thinks it's actually worth; if anyone has real interest, I'll be happy to share the actual domain privately.

using paypal for a porno site? umm whoops!

[justjeff]

Um, yea ... it didn't start out as a porno site. Again, one of the reasons I'm looking to get rid of it

[tiger]

I'm interested. Please contact me.

250/gigs a day? Whats your NET?

[justjeff]

Tiger: have anything other than ICQ? You can contact me directly through the whois info on the domain, or give me some other way (AIM, MSN, Yahoo, Email) to reach you - I haven't used ICQ since 2000, and don't remember my ID or password...

Pood: NET == revenue. I work for a hosting provider, they are gracious enough to cover the cost as a perk of my employment. I'm trying to remove that burden. Moving it to your favorite adult friendly provider (say, something in the downtown LA area at $10/mb), should leave plenty of profit margin, but I can give you specific figures if you're genuinely interested...
