I dont want to provide too much info.

half of the $75k profit is produced by affiliates the other half is produced by search engine listings and PPC traffic.

But the profit figure takes into account the advertising that would be needed to be done to maintain the revenue figures.

Most prices on sites we've handled for clients or looked at for ourselves have been priced at about 6 mont's net on average. Some as high as 24 months net.

The highest I've seen was a site with a net of $1.8 per year looking for a sale at 10 mil. Didn't sell obviously on that multiple.

While it varies by industry and from situation to situation, a very simple private company valuation is ASSETS - DEBTS + YEARLY NET * 1.5. So a company with 1 million in assets, no debts and 1 million in yearly net would be worth ~ 2.5 million. The 6 month net price noted by KRL sounds like a bargain to me. But ultimately everything is worth whatever you can get someone to pay for it
