Thanks :thumbsup

As was mentioned probably 6 to 12 month multiple on what you are making.

That's cool. Thanks for the advice. I'll just have to keep it unless someone offers a lot more than that.

My GFY Bullshit-o-meter broke on this thread.

Seems the mix of truth and pure bs was more than it could handle. I am going to have to get it repaired and re-calibrated.

That all makes sense. Thanks for all the tips.

Great advice, if you plan on spending more than the site currently generates per month on worthwhile content.

i remember seeing joe pusher ads on backpage in the escort category, it was quite clever marketing idea.

I'm trying to follow what you're saying.

The other guy was suggesting to spend a few grand to set up some more sites as part of my program, with enough content to stretch it out for a year or two. How does that relate to 1 single month of revenue? Is that another formula?

I'm not saying that it's right or wrong. I just really don't understand what you meant.

Bullshit-o-meter
 

Yep. Best post on this thread.

I used to get a lot of signups from that, but then backpage started tripping and saying that I had to put the ads in the "website and phone sex" category which doesn't get any traffic. The escort section gets all the traffic.

Thank God I wasn't here to take your advice when my house sat on the market for 7 months. I was ready to dump the thing based on "simple business acumen." 2 weeks before I did the right buyer came along and I kept the $100k I was going to take a bath on.

There's a right buyer for everything.

Do you still got the 100k? Want to buy a website?

I guess I am saying that deciding to invest a lot of money into new content and potentially new sites to create a multi-site all access pass type deal seems like a great way to dig yourself into a big hole when you aren't happy with the money you are currently making insofar as you are looking to sell the site you have.

I am also saying that investing in more content only makes sense if you have the traffic conversions to support it because you can update everyday and it won't matter a bit if the traffic is not converting in the first place.

And I think buying super cheap "filler" content that is already whore'd out won't do much since surfers see that stuff anywhere and everywhere; whereas, paying for decent, exclusive content to provide enough updates is an expensive proposition. We are super cheap when it comes to paying for content and it still costs a fortune to maintain our daily updates. Seen a lot of companies go under trying to play that game.

Finally, I think the advice you like to hear should be discounted greatly and the advice you don't want to hear can often profit you more. When it comes to business advice of this nature I would ask for credentials, references, and examples. GFY has a lot of opinions but very few experts.:2 cents:

Good for you. But that situation has little to do with this. You cannot compare a house sale with an adult website sale for so many very obvious reasons.

I don't think that the person was saying that he thinks that websites are like houses.

I think he's referring to the basic idea that sometimes you can wait for the right buyer to come along for something that you are selling. He was just using sale of his house as an example.

It doesn't mean that it's guaranteed to happen. It just means that it could happen.

Why do you keep writing your site name it the posts

When he's added 100 links the asking price is going to triple.

Just to have the link so any potential buyers can click. Why what's up?

Why not just put in your sig? Job done!

where do I do that at? I'm not really used to coming on here that much until now. I don't have 20,000 posts.

Click on User CP - On the left, under 'Settings and Options - Click 'Edit Signature'

Add your link in there - (Click SAVE) From then on in, Every-time you post anything, it will appear below your post :thumbsup

Good luck with the sale :)

alright thanks.

Woot Wot! it Worky...

I expect it to be sold 2 years sooner with that sig in place. Good job

^ this right here.

You'd be crazy to sell it for 30k if you're netting $2500 a month consistently.

Contact every website broker that you can find and try to list it with them. I've seen sites making $300 a month sell for 30k. It's all about who you get it in front of.

I also believe its really depends on the buyer.

I can speak for my self...i can buy sites for much more that what people list here, if i see the right potential.
I will give an example:

I have traffic in some micro niche, and i know i can make sells, other guy, can open a great site in the same niche, but has no traffic and make very little, let's say, only 100$ a month.
Here everybody say, he will sell it for 600- 1200$ max, but in my case, i willing to pay much much more, as i know i can make with it much more than he can.

So, it's all about potential for the buyer.

When visiting the link in your sig and going here

http://everestcash.com/partners/register.cgi

There's a ton of broken images in the top of the page.

That's not going to encourage people to sign up to the program.

It goes both ways too though. Current owner is far more familiar with the site and maybe able to run it just right to maintain current earnings. Also with porn in this day and age you constantly need more traffic to just maintain. So trying to see a year into the future can be difficult and risky

It's an extremely bad example that just reveals that the poster is probably pretty clueless. Anyhow, a regular car for sale would have been a much better example.

The point is that the longer it takes to sell your website, the less it will be sold for.

Same with my car, I am trying to sell one. It's not being sold. I could lower the price or wait. Result is probably the same in the end = I get less money for my car... unless if it's a super special car that gets more valuable as it ages. But it's not. Kinda like your site, it won't get more valuable if you wait, it'll get less valuable.

The fact is that you have been trying to sell this for a long time - and not been able to - tells me that you are either trying to sell this the wrong way, at the wrong place or for the wrong price.

But yea, you might get lucky. I hope you do. But I wouldn't bet on it :)

So comparing a depreciating asset (a fucking car??) to a website earning income is a good example? Yahhhh OKayyyyy

Good advice. I've just mainly been talking about it on here, but I'm going to try to do that. Do you know of a certain website for that? Thanks

Yes. Actually it is :pimp Both are depreciating assets, the rate might be different but fact is that unless he does something drastic to that website, value will drop over time .

Off the top of my head latonas.com. Just google website brokers and hit them all up.

Forget about this place...You have guys above comparing your site to a used car.

Really? You're comparing probably the worst investment you can make (a car) to a cash flow producing asset?

LOL.

A car will last a lot longer then a porn site.

And the cow jumped over the moon.

Would that be a milk cow?

You do not seem to understand the context. *shrug*
