What's the best forum to ask a question about how to conduct business?

    I want to know how much a site I am trying to sell will be worth, or how much I can expect to sell it at current market prices.

    I want to know how to price my banner ads and square image ads on a site.

    Which forum is best-suited to ask these kinds of questions relating to doing business? The sites sales forum and the ad sales forums are full of ads to sell/buy stuff, so I am not so sure that those would be forums to ask my questions, or are they?

    Thanks :)

    For advertising inquiries, including price quotes regarding link sales etc, threads should really be posted in the General Marketing forum.

    Regarding the sale of a site, generally its value is based upon its revenue. Most sites sell at the amount of revenue your site generates in 10 months (if you make $100 per month expect to sell at no less than $1000 for example). You can get better price quotes, as long as you provide necessary info such as stats and revenue, in the Sites forum of the B/S/T.

    Any questions generally related to business should obviously be posted in the General Business forum.

    And just because the Buy/Sell/Trade forum has mostly sales threads, don't be afraid to ask questions in there. If you need a price quote, you can definitely request one in the appropriate sub-forum. After-all, you will be seeking members to trade knowledge and price quotes with you. ;)

    Post it in the section where the primary purpose of your sale is meant for. :)
