    Hi,
    I opened a site called xxdating.net about 3 weeks ago. the site is doing great, but now I am getting emails from other "Adult Related" sites with offers to buy this domain from me.. They are giving me nice offers but I'm unsure who or what company i can trust to give me a good valuation..

    Thanks For your Time

    There is a scam that goes around from time to time, where the scammers approach someone saying they are interested in there domain..
    The scammers then say that they are interested, but before there company can buy the domain, they need it professionally valued.
    Then they provide a list of valuers that have been approved by there company. (the scammers own the companies on the list)
    So all you end up with is paying the scammers to value a domain that they are not interested in...

    I am not saying that the people who have approached you are scammers. but be careful.

    Cheers
    James
