    Ssso I have been running this site for about a week and a half.
    www.narutotribe.com

    I really want to know how much people at this forum would be willing to pay for it.. although I'm probably not selling right now.

    Stats are showing the site receives an average of 1,500 unique visitors/day

    The forum has been up about a week, with a day of down time and has had:

    posted a total of 1389 articles
    We have 141 registered users


    Adsense makes around $3-5/day and so far has made around $45..

    Oh, also the site is 100% custom designed/coded by me.. apart from the forum which runs phpbb and uses a free skin

    Valuation is like beauty - it's in the eye of the beholder. My standard financial rule is that I'll buy something for 8-10x predictable monthly earnings, and the site has to have an earnings record of at least 6 months. I rarely buy sites newer than that, and if I do, I try to pay 1-2x monthly earnings, so in this case, I would pay maybe $250-$300 for what you've got.

    But, there are a lot of other variables. I would pay more for something that had a strategic fit - something I could cross promote with other sites I own. I would pay more if you had lots of incoming links that weren't yet reflected in your PR, but would be at the next update.

    I normally don't pay much attention to raw traffic levels, but if I had a product to sell to your audience, I might factor that in.

    If it's a lot of work to run, I discount the price. If it's expensive to market, I factor that in too. If it's in a competitive space, I discount it unless the site is one of the top ones, in which case I'm willing to add a premium.

    It's tough to say, but you might get as much as 2K from the right buyer.

    If you can get a buyer that is willing to pay 2k for that site, buy it without a second thought.

    Atleast a few hundreds, purely for the traffic you get on your site..

    I also have a naruto video site with the same kind of traffic and would not sell it anywhere below 500$

    I would say it would depend on what someone is willing to pay. I have seen site that to me are worthless sell for $500 and I have seen sites that have good earnings and are good designs that have not got a bid more than $100. The only way to get a true assessment is to list it for sale with a reserve and see what you get for offers.

    No offense but that tool is useless. I checked my site and it says value of $1282 and I couldn't even get a $60 starting bid on here.

    Personally I would not pay much. If it was up for a few months kept consistent traffic then I think it would be worth much more. I think a buyer would be fairly crazy to pay hardly anything at this point. The reason is is because there could be some fraudulent traffic or clicks on the ads. A few months worth of Adsense payments would verify that the traffic is legitimate.

    You mean sell it. It does not seem to have huge revenue potential does it. Not many entetainmenty sides do unless thay are incredibly popular.

    DnScoop says 20$ haha. But honestly wait... if you are ever thinking of selling it soon do yourself a favor and wait. I am quite impressed on how your site "launched" the domain itself is said to be 13 days and your already pulling a few bucks a day? Im actually jealous haha.

    Well your site is worth your content and your users becuase a site with out users is not great and a site with out content is not good. that is how i do it.
