    I have been offered a website for sale on a very competitive and high paying niche
    I cannot give away the domain due to the privacy agreement that i have with the seller
    Certain details and hints though:
    The site in question ranks on the first page SERP for keyword "beauty tips" without quotes in google
    It is not in the first three, getting it there should not be much of a problem also he has not tried to get it ranked for other keywords
    It earns close to 15$ per day from adsense alone and the seller has not tried any other method of monetization and he spends around 80$ per month for content and SEO
    Traffic of course is huge
    I have checked the adsense stats and traffic stats, he let me use my own codes for adsense and traffic on his site for 2 days, so that details are confirmed
    He is asking 5K for the site
    Guys is it worth it!
    Also what are the other monetizations that i can do, affiliates is one, then...

    $5000? for $15 a day sounds about right. do the math and you might see you are getting a deal. $15 a day x 30 days in a month = $450 less 80 for content = $370 times 12 months = $4440 per year. typically when selling a business you will pay about 2 years of revenue. IMHO web sites i hear are around 1 years ROI.
