Game Server Earns Approx $6000 Per Month and growing

    Ok Firstly there's probably not much chance of me selling this but I am interested in offers. Unless your offer is in the $15000+ range don't bother.

    Ok I'm not revealing the url or exactly what it is just now but ill give good details. I don't want my gamers finding out I may be selling it. So in a nutshel this is a gaming server I own with just over 40k members and averages around 300-500 new signups per day. It costs just £100 a month to run which is about 200 dollars and its hosted in the UK. The server has around 300-400 online at peak times and 200+ most the time but during a few quiet hours it goes as low as like 60 users online playing the game. Players pay me for extra items, gold etc because this is an rpg game. I am not the biggest rpg of its kind but I still make between $100-$400 per day depending normally on how much I work. If I spend a few hours in the evening online I will normally make more. Some days I don't go online at all and it still earns the same since I pay a few ppl 10% commission to deal with buyers if I'm not there.

    Here is evidence of earnings
    The google analytics is just for the main page which at a guestimate is 90% the new users visiting and deciding if they want to signup. I am currently working on a new website to attract more of the approx 1k users to sign up, at the moment around 45% of them signup per day. Theres also quite a busy forum but thats not on the analytics. It has about 700 members mainly comprised of the more active players in the game.

    Bottom line is this is a growing business. All money go's straight into paypal then my bank account, this is a hell of a lot of money that nobody knows you have online! I earn more and more each week, I'm no business expert but you can probably tell from my paypal withdrawls to my bank that its growing rapidly each month and this is a real legitimate goldmine of a business! I'm not sure if I am going to sell but I get a good enough price I will likely start another from scratch but it wont effect yours that I can promise.

    oh btw the site takes money in euros which is probably the most stable form of currency. I would be taking payment in either euros or great british pounds if I was to find a seller. Keep in mind the values on paypal are in Great british pounds which is worth approx double the dollar.

    You would be better selling this on SitePoint due to the value that you are looking for !

    Shafty I'm not sure that I would sell it for that but I would possibly consider it. I'm really looking for more like 3+ at least tbh but I was just giving that as an idea. Honestly guys im not giving out url here and I don't think anyone who has messaged me looks like a serious bidder looking at past transactions. I think some people just want to see what I'm making the money off. I think I will take this to sitepoint sorry. Although if anyone has a business or something they could show me, to let me know they have a fair bit of money I will be willing to explain more.

    oh and there are no advertising costs apart from $10 a month for a banner I put on a toplist. All traffic is organic. I also make about 200 dollars a month on adsense through banners on forum but thats not really worth counting.

    Sorry guys i've decided not to sell! I've been advised it's worth a lot more than the 10k region.
