Why do you think people are selling?
There is a reason for it.

Hell is coming.

Diabetic Rage has been saying this and warning people for months.

How so? Just move your site offshore!! Shrub can't touch your TGP there!! :)

That's because so many of the webmasters are just surfers who decided to get in on the action. They think this is all fun and games. For example, you wouldn't believe how many fail to send in their license agreements. They are operating with unlicensed content!

quiet's formula works good and i don't doubt for any of the numbers he reffers to. He's doing good not to get in to details. The ones that can afford his business have the knowledge to evaluate it properly. Quiet i'll send you a mail later today with some suggestion I have. Of course it's not offer,i'm still in the borders of poverty :)

I was told that Adult sites don't measure anywhere near what a realworld company is because of the type of business they are and the risk that is involved.

It's much more difficult to get a loan from a bank if you are a porn site vs a clothing store.

Wizzo is right ;)

I want to walk like Kane too...

I think the biggest consideration when buying/selling a site -- how many hours do you spend on it... I prefer to work zero hours/day ;)

bhutocracy 02-19-2002 01:06 AM

'cause porn sites are all about IP.. It's because the revenue is so intrinsically tied to the person operating it that you can't charge six years worth of profits... your "site" is walking out the door when they get paid.. that is of course why the only smart buy is from someone in the business purchasing something they know can blossom in their own hands.. (like previously mentioned content)

btw some guys paid 15k for a site i was contracted to re-design that had 4 fucking members.. *sigh*

Some things to think about when considering a site for sale:

Sites are based on domain names, which you can't really own, but only rent (miss a payment and it will soon belong to someone else).

How transferrable is your content? Does it belong to the seller or the domain? Has the provider put any restrictions on transfer?

In other words, when you sell a site, what is really yours to sell?

Hello wake up! You can pay your domain for 10 years in advance which costs less than $350........

You've owned a clothing store or what ? I can assure you that this is not true at all. It all depends on the business plan/strategy you have.

WOW what a news flash, I'm glad you were here to clear that up for us. (/sarcasm)

Even if you could prepay for 20 years it doesn't make his point any less valid.
You still don't OWN it, you're leasing it.

Unseen, they may not send in the liscence but at least they were nice enough to pay you for the pics instead of just right clicking like most of these morons do eh? LOL

Doesn't really matter how difficult it is or is not to get a particular name... the point was a simple one: You still don't own the name. You're leasing it.

It may be damn difficult to get that hot 3 bedroom apartment up on the hill, cuz the guy living in it doesn't have any intention of leaving for a long time.... doesn't mean he owns it.

This should not even be an argument.
