Value of Online Business

If this is wrong place than please move it.

I was just wondering if any one could give me a ball-park figure of how much this site would be worth. It is a extreme sport equipment supplier, it is UK based and works on a drop shipping bases.
Site URL http://www.gorkite.com/
Stats URL http://www.gorkite.com/webalizer/default.html

The site has been around for over a year but because of several different personal issues i wasn't able to advertise so that it would reach its potential because of this there is only been about £2500 in sales and about 40-50% profit margin.

Any feedback is welcome.
ps. it has PR3 and a predicted of PR4 after next update.

a general rule i have used is about 6 -10months of profit - sell it for that price plus the value of the domain name


so say you make $10 a month after other costs (hosting ect.) + the domain say $15 then you would sell it anwhere from $75 to $115

hope that gives an idea

Usually people sell for 10-12 months monthly revenue. If you have past records and proof of a stable selling record.

You can do the math as you haven't provided monthly revenue
