~LadyH1/ ROI = return on investment.
E.g. if you give me $100 now and I give you $110 than that’s a ROI of 10%.
2/ A very very unscientific but nice thing:
If you have a x% ROI, it will take you 70/x years to have your money back.
This works for ROI’s from 1% till let’s say 15% and is a good estimation only.For example; you want to sell your site to your buyer providing him a 7% ROI, which means he will have his money back in 70/7 = 10 years.
So, in this case, your price should be 10 times your yearly cash flow (= cash in – cash out).
BUT: casino affiliate sites are risky business, I woul never buy a site at 10 times yearly cash flow, let’s say a ROI of 15% (so 70/15 = about 5 times cash flow) is more reasonable.
Hope it helps.

PS/ The 70/x rule is based on log(2), I can give you the full ‘proof’ if you wish.

~LadyHYes, thats the only way you will be able to sell really. Its a bit like if you sold your storefront, your customers and all potential customers is what they are buying.
Without the accounts it would be classed as turnkey site ie a brand new site. Check out sitepoint.com for more info there forum for selling sires is rated the best forum. great info usually they work on what site earned in last 9 months so i dont think they would be interested in your aff accounts.
ic ic.. this makes sence thanx alot you guys..
Another question.. I’ve seen ppl buy and sell alot of sites here, ppl that own literally hundreds of them.. How do you keep the affiliate accounts individual from the sites so that they can go with the sale, but you don’t lose all of the accounts that you have amongst the other sites?
~LadyH
As long as you have incoming links to your site, you state in the sales pitch that the domain is for sale with traffic stats!
Incoming Links and Stats is all you need to use for the purpose of selling a site with affliate accounts. The rest is up to the new owner to update the links with their own code, and a letter to your present customers if any! that ownership of site has been changed.
90% of the time, a new owner will change the look of the site!!! and take advantage of incoming links that genrate traffic.
