    It's hard to say because you have no proof of revenue and your proof of traffic is not from a reliable source. I would have blown by your auctions without a second thought if you hadn't asked about them here first, and I suspect I am not the only one. A passive site that generates $100 per month could easily go for $2000, but I wouldn't offer much more than $1,000 for your listing, and that is pushing it, so I'd consider anything near that price if I were you.

    What is your highest offer so far?

    Use Google Analytics for traffic stats and provide some proof of revenue. Even if you loaded it at the beginning of the auction, it would be better than nothing, because buyers have to assume that you are telling the truth about your past revenue, and AWStats are generally seen as unreliable (for good reason).

    Why are they not bidding on the auction? If other potential bidders see that there is some interest, that might drice the bids up.

    I share benitez17's concern about proof of stats, though.

    i don't have a Google Analytics for traffic stats. Is there any other reliable source I could use?

    You could provide users with your raw logs if your hosting company provides access to them.

    You've still got 5 days of auction to go. What's stopping you from putting GA code on now and updating your listing on day four with three days worth of GA stats? Not as good as a year's worth, but better than nothing.

    Hi Werner,

    I'm wary of sellers who do now accept escrow. Your listing estimates a revenue of $100 per month indicating 100 USD not GBP - I see from your copy that you seem to mean GBP - there's a bit of a difference there that could impact your bottom line significantly.

    No BIN price so I have NO idea of what you want. I do not know what your BIN should be but as a buyer, I could at least make a decision based on fact not speculation.

    Don't know what to say about stats and proof of income. My understanding is a slick operator could doctor all of that.

    What offers are you getting? What's your reserve?

    Andy

    P.S. I'm answering this post even though I'm no expert.

    Thanks for your reply Andy.

    Some of the revenue I have indicated in $ because the site looks like it works in $ more than £. I have taken the exchange rate into consideration.

    I have not added a BIN price, because I didn't have any idea of the price it should be, hence asking the question on here. I would have like something like $1500 each, but with the feedback and offers I have been getting, I think more in the area of $850 each. I have reserved them at around that price.

    Let me know what you think.

    Regards,

    Werner
