    Site: In my sig.

    Traffic: last month 2000 uniuqes, this month 3500 uniques so far - on target to hit 6-7000 this month.
    Mainly UK, US, European traffic
    Primarily from search engines.

    Income: 2 x banners $25 a month
    Adsense/TTZ: $5 a month
    Other sources: $15-20 a month
    PR3
    Alexa: about 900,000 i think

    Site is NOT auto updated, although runs on wordpress so im sure it can be - currently takes about 10-20 minutes a day.
    Site has a custom mod installed to update the homepage photo easily.
    Forums have a unique skin made by me, based on the main sites skin.

    Reason for sale - Im gutted i dont want to sell the site but im starting a new job on monday which will involve a lot of training over the next 12 months.
    There is a reserve which i will keep private if it doesnt meet that i will either put it on autoupdate or pay someone to update the news. The forums are only a month old and im trying to get those going but they could quite easily be removed if wanted.

    I would like to start this sale off at $250 a month (this is not the reserve but i think its priced to get some interest going and to deter the $5 bids which would be a waste of time. Payment is via paypal only im afraid.

    Any questions please let me know, i can either answer in public or private. I will also accept private bids but i will disclose the bid (not the bidder) in this auction. Domain is with namecheap.

    Hi Tony
    Am interested - are the news stories syndicated? I realise you post them manually and they're not currently automated but where do they originate from?
    Cheers

    4) I would like to start this sale off at $250 a month?? What do you mean by that?

    1) Can you provide google analytics stats. you can generate PDF report in G analytics: i cant provide google analytics im afraid but i took some screenshots of awstats the other day these can be found at the domain.com/stats (the link in my sig just add /stats at the end)
    2) I assume your sig is your site? yes thats correct
    3) I dont see adsense anywhere? why? because i have now changed it over to ttz media as i said in the opening posts adsense/ttz media (depening on which i have running)
    4) I would like to start this sale off at $250 a month?? What do you mean by that? it was a mistake sorry, obviously i dont expect $250 a month for a site making $40-45 a month
    you mentioned that "some is copied some is re-written" have youp got the right to copy them? - nope but i try to credit the original source when i remember
    by the way, its this a CMS? Do you have an admin access? How do you add news and staff - yes its wordpress its all very simple but i can show you how to add staff.

    I think i have answered everyones questions there. Sorry for the delay.

    $250 is the highest bid so far

    The site hasnt met my reserve yet. Im looking closer to the mid $xxx mark.
    $45x 10 = $450 which is roughly the usualy going rate. Factor in PR3, half decent alexa ranking and decent amount of traffic i think the offers should be around that mark.

    Buyers normally base it on 10 months revenue, im not new to buying and selling websites. But im in no rush to sell it - i will just pay a writer.
