Give us a better idea of what this company is worth and provide:

1) The sales figure, yearly.
2) The costs, yearly (quite simply, all the shit you have to buy to make those sales, bw, etc)
3) The time per week you or someone has to put in to such a venture.

How easily could someone else run your business?
Do you have key relationships that make your business run that could be easily transferred to the buyer?
What exactly is the business?

I'm not trying to steal ideas, I have an MBA and we used to do tons of valuation shit and this is the kind of stuff we need to know.

Sales volatility also comes into play. Got steady smooth sales and you're going to improve your valuation. Don't know what you're going to make from month to month, then its going to be worth less (not worthless ) .

It's all math based on common sense shit like this.

That's pretty informative, thanks.
I'm not looking to buy or sell business at the moment, just wanted to hear some basics. As I understood from your post there are companies that provide such evaluation services.
Any links would be appreciated.

Also is there are significant diferences evaluating adult and non-adult online business. Higher risk factor, etc.?
