    What is my site/forum worth?

    Hi Guys,

    I have a site which has been live for about 2-3 years and focussed on the forex market. Over the past two years with little promotion I have obtained 2,000 members of the forum and site, with over 3,000 page impressions a day.

    I am considering selling this site but would like a guideline to what it is worth. It is ranked 200k in alexa.

    Simon

    You're more likely to get a solid offer based on what the site earns rather than stats like how many members it has, or it's raw traffic figures. PM me the details, I'm always looking for a decent forum to buy.

    Are you using vBSEO Simon? You should try optimizing your forum with vBSEO before selling it. If you can increase the traffic and revenue, you will boost the sale value as well.

    I would upgrade to vbulletin 3.8.0 and install their hack of Google Adsense, and then I am sure IB would soon offer you some money, if it is worth anything.

    Sorry for posting late but I just saw these posts.

    I get about 3,500 hits a day on the site with 1,800 uniques on average. The forum has been optimized.

    There are now 2,500 members.

    The site in question is forex-rates.biz

    Currently the site generates shy of $3,000 in revenue a month through adsense (300), and commissions from the different brokers. It sends about 3-4 leads a day to different brokers.
