A indian matrimonial site is for sale and i have placed a bid of $550 which is the highest so far. The buy it now price is $20,000. The last date of the auction is 19th of this month. Now guys plz tell me is it a gud decision to buy a site which is existing for the last 5 years and if yes then whats the maximum amount shall i quote? Do you think that matrimonial sites are worth $20,000. How much revenue it cud generate? Plz offer positive/negative comments.
I dont have much idea regarding the matrimonial website but we can earn more money from them by making people register in it and get money for providing brides and bridgrooms contact... And you can earn more from placing advts in that website.Quote:

Especially in India, you can earn good amount by getting sufficient ads on this site and you are likely to get good traffic to your site if it is matrimonial site. Our social system is such that this site will get large number of visitors.
However, cannot say anything about the bid (rate).
I think you must check / investigate that site first.
are they have good reputation? and are they active for 5 years?
dont just excited by their bidding price, because usually site owner bid the price higher than their real price.
well,
i dont have much idea on this at all.
but how much ad revenue you get ot of it that affects your earning too.

Thanks all of you for your suggestions. I'll stick to my bid of $550.
well as its mentioned it cud be big business in india provided you are able to promote it well..perhaps you should do a back ground check on it

Thanks Nick. I hope i'll emerge the highest bidder if not i'll try my luck elsewhere. I hope all of you will be willing to work with me if i buy one website right?
Well We will surely if we know what work in which we can assist you Shishir ??
I wish you have won that. Owing a matrimony site is great as the opportunities of earning with that are limitless..people can never stop marrying, so such sites can never go in vain.. :lol:
$550 is quite reasonable for that site and if its an established one, you will be recovering that in a month or less. Please tell me where you find listings for Indian sites, I am interested in purchasing them too.
shishir: It will be interesting thing to know what happened to your bid. Did you win or not? If no then at what price was it sold?
