    Revenue: So far in July I have made $15 via Adsense. Didn't sell any links at all, just because I don't want the buyer to be stuck with them :)

    :::: About the network ::::
    Gamers-Talk Network has all the right things needed to have incredible potential. As can be seen, I simply do not have the time to properly develop, promote, or monetize the sites. If someone had the time to finish developing, and to promote the network, the buyer could really earn a lot of money with this. Also, what's great about this is that it would be easy to keep adding on to this network by purchasing more "Talk" domains as new game systems are released! For example, I don't have a PS3 domain in this network yet, but all the owner of this network has to do is find a PS3 domain that he likes, and add it to the network. The real beauty of this whole thing is that the sites all promote each other! This is done with the Network Toolbar that is located at the top of each forum in the network, and this toolbar is just one script - meaning that the owner must edit just one script to include one new site into the whole network. Talk about easy to add sites!

    Why have a network? Because you can promote the sites individually, and reach ALL gamers. Xbox fanboys, for example, probably wouldn't want to be at a "general gaming" site, because they would have to put up with the Sony fanboys, etc.

    This is why I am selling the network based primarily on (1) huge, long-term potential, and (2) the great value of the domain names themselves. "Talk" domains have been rising a lot in value lately, because they sound nice and are easy to remember!

    Also, I can refer the buyer to the graphic artist who did all four forum headers, at a very low cost.

    :::: Gamers-Talk.com ::::
    This is the domain for the network hub. I haven't had time to set up a site at the domain yet, but the buyer could set it up with includes of the latest forum activity at each site in the network. This would be a great way for visitors to effortlessly check in on each forum without visiting each one individually!

    :::: Xbox360Talk.com ::::
    This is the largest and most active site currently in the network. There are over 1100 total forum posts, and around 50 active members. All real members, no paid posting. There is currently one moderator who has been a really great help. Averaging around 50 uniques per day with basically just word-of-mouth advertising.

    There are several modifications already installed:
    - vbBux / vbPlaza: point system and store
    - strikethrough closed threads
    - ibProArcade: arcade system, very well liked by the members. There is a minor error with this system's score submitting since I moved hosts recently, but that could probably be fixed by simply re-installing the arcade. (?)

    :::: TalkPSP.com ::::
    This site has around 400 posts, but I just haven't had the time to fully revive the place. Averaging around 30 uniques/day. Fantastic domain, however, and I get a lot of nice comments in reference to it.

    :::: TalkDS.com ::::
    Not much activity around here, as I never tried promoting it. Still, the buyer will have everything set up nicely, and 32 posts to get started with. Averaging 15 uniques/day. Once again, this is an excellent domain that is very to-the-point and easy to remember.

    :::: Talk-Wii.com ::::
    Unused site. Great time to develop a Wii site, however, since the Wii will be released this Fall.

    :::: Other undeveloped domains ::::
    TalkPortable.com
    TalkGT.com
    TalkZelda.com
    TalkRev.com
    X360Talk.com - former location of Xbox 360 Talk forums

    ------------

    Price: $2050 (previous asking price was $3000)

    Payment will be made via Escrow.com, and the buyer pays all fees.

    $1800, lowest that I'll go on this.

    If you only used the four current sites, and earned a measly $2.50/day per site, that's $10/day for the network, which is $300/month. 10 months revenue would value the network at $3000. This is such a steal folks!

    Ok, it's been a month now, and I'm cutting the price to $1500 for everything, and including the domain "talkzunes.com" as well! Amazing deal, I just need some cash. Don't miss out, this should sell quickly!

    Xbox360Talk.com is growing steadily, by the way.

    Serverstalk.com is being thrown in for free.

    Last call, on this lot, I'm going to split the sites up now.
