    I have a large niche forum with a catchy domain name. I'm looking to possibly sell it, but I need some rough ideas on the value of the site.

    The specifics:
    Name: cincinnatistreetracing.com
    Members: 4,250
    Posts: 468,000
    Age: 5 years

    Uniques/month: 10K-15K
    Pages/month: 100K-150K

    Revenue:
    Google Adsense: $100/month
    Affiliate Marketing: $100/month
    Private Advertisement: $250/month

    how big is street racing in cinccinati?
    it really limits it that you have the domain for a single city
    i'd say 900 max
    probably mid hundreds solely based off of revenue
    its a bad domain because of the city

    Don't listen to him! That's a big place.
    it is slightly limited to to that geared local name, others would join from differant area's because it's large enough.
    -as for the domain name. Freakin long. don't even ask me to try to type it without looking. If someone is not from that area, they would have this problem too.

    Still if you're revenue is stable, and true then I would say you could pull $2000 out of it if you tried.

    This is if you had a good search engine ranking going on.

    due to the nature of the forum, it's meant to be spread by wom... but $2k just isn't enough... it costs more than that to operate it per year...

    Bummer, that's an expensive Site. If you can establish that it has profit more than the bills it will sell
