This website has pretty decent traffic as well as a reasonable level of engagement; there are certainly smaller websites, with less traffic, that already advertise for online casinos.
I wouldn't be surprised if the LCB Network would be willing to make an offer were Dan selling, but I would also say that it wouldn't be in Dan's best interest to sell, at this time, even if he might have a future interest in doing so.
Generally speaking, websites whose revenues are based entirely, or almost entirely, on advertising, sell for 3-5 years worth of advertising revenues. In the case of this site, there are no revenues because it hasn't advertised yet.
If we start with a base assumption that content will only be added to this site within the next year or two, then the best play would be to start advertising now with an eye towards eventually selling for that 3-5 years worth of revenues figure. As of right now, potential future revenues would be purely speculative, so if Dan sold, he would either be getting the lowest amount this website would sell for or tied with the lowest amount.
Worst case scenario, the website really doesn't do a whole lot in revenues over the advertising period, but even if it didn't, it certainly wouldn't be worth less than it is right now.
One thing that I think would give the LCB Network pause, at least, I assume, is that this forum is all but unmoderated. There would probably be more man hours tied up in cleaning up certain things (because you wouldn't want to flat out delete all content, as you want to keep as much extant content as possible) that the manpower to do so would likely cost more than what they'd actually be paying for the site.
If Dan ever does decide to sell, my opinion is that he should advertise for no less than a year first. It wouldn't take anything away from value and could only add to it. Based on what little I know about online casino advertising structures, depending on if Dan wanted anything by way of guaranteed income (preferably not), in theory, it might only take one player to result in advertising revenues greater than the site would sell for right now.
I also can't really entertain any questions on the business side of things as the above pretty much reflects everything I actually know about it.
lul... This is what it takes to get you to post over here.
Selling the Website and getting Advertising Revenue.
You're showing your colors.
Nothing, "Got me posting," over here.
I hadn't even so much as glanced at this website in probably a month, which Dan could probably confirm, and just happened to do so today...basically at random. I participate over at PFA with some regularity as it, somehow, is less boring and slightly less of a trollfest than this site had become. I could definitely do with fewer pictures of male genitalia and butts, though.
Anyway, I clicked the, 'Las Vegas," section and read through the thread, commented. I actually had to look up my password for here as I hadn't actually logged in for so long I'd completely forgotten it.
I don't care if Dan advertises, or not, sells the website, or not. Even if LCB bought it, which I don't think they would, it would not be any of my financial interest whatsoever. I was just giving a little unsolicited advice on what to do if he ever does decide to sell.
This whole discussion about selling websites and advertising online casinos and whatnot, is monotonous. Dan's already said he has no interest in selling because he doesn't need the money. So why all the speculation, hypotheticals, and guessing? This was just another thing that fraudboy kew brought up to try and deflect the humiliation away from him, when he couldn't afford a bowl of noodles from Panda Express to slurp down. Besides....the only grease he deals with these days slathers his surfboards..
Here are some future track stars. The 100M dash record may be broken by one or more of these individuals:

I get lots of stupid offers to add links to scam casinos and affiliates of scam casinos. A few are affiliates of legit sites like 888.com, but still, fuck it. If I really wanted that, I'd start my own affiliate account.
When it comes down to it, this and PFA have a similar reason for remaining up -- to preserve a longtime community.
This site preserves the original Alanbestbuys forum community (which was more of a free speech haven for APs rather than about Alan's business), and PFA is a continuation of the old Neverwinpoker community from the 2000s (though I don't have any of that content, which is long gone).
I am more open to monetizing this one than PFA, but I don't want it to be anything scammy, nor do I want it to clutter the site, nor do I want it to be anything illegal or quasi-illegal.

Dan the Man ain't starving anytime soon. He wants to keep his integrity intact. Good on you Druff.
Check out red pants 3-5 seconds in.
First, notice the awareness that the runner in front of him dropped his baton. That's the sort of natural awareness of one's surroundings that we try to preach into our athletes, but is truly a difficult thing to coach. For him, it comes naturally. Note how this athlete comes to a quick stop, but makes sure to plant his feet and keeps them in a position such as to be able to accelerate again quickly.
We're putting that young up-and-coming athlete on relay, no question.
It's L.A., so I obviously don't give a shit. It was also Gucci, so I really don't have much concern about price increases for paying customers to compensate for loss.
That Century City mall has been hit in different ways. Back when the Rolex stores used to carry actual stock, someone asked to see a Rolex and ran with two of them.
Rolex thief runs off w/ 2 watches from Century City shop
The 2012 Rolex theft was a robbery (he forced one of the Rolexes from the clerk's hand), but no guns involved. You'd think that the fact that the thieves have to pull into a parking lot where tickets have to be used to exit would deter them, and that they'd pick a mall with outdoor parking (and they do), but Century City remains a target.
There have also been armed robberies in this mall.

And if you want to read a pretty vivid description of the 2015, armed robbery:
The Time Bandits of Southern California
On a quiet Monday around noon, two men dressed in black stepped onto an ascending escalator in the underground parking lot of an open-air mall in Century City in Los Angeles. By the time they had reached the top, they'd pulled on ski masks and they were sprinting.
“They're coming, they're coming!” yelled Damian Dupre, a security guard at a Gearys luxury-watch boutique, when he saw the men running toward the store. Dupre is a solid six feet three inches, but as he rushed to lock the front door, the men were already pushing their way in. The first intruder, a short, stocky man carrying a rifle, burst in and his gun went off, shattering a glass case. “Get on the ground!” he yelled, and the guard and three other Gearys employees dropped to the floor. “Hurry up!” the man shouted to his partner. “We got to go!”

California has pending legislation (SB 553) that prevents employers from requiring workers to confront active shooters or shoplifters. If the employee wants to do something, he may, but the store owner can't make it part of his job. However, the legislation does not cover store security, who are trained and hired to do what they do.
That security guy probably just realized that all he could do was put his finger in the dike and pray, as far as stopping the rush of goods flowing out the door, and gave up. Even if that older guy, the store manager or whoever he was, had grabbed hold of one of them, I doubt he would have been able to prevent the guy from escaping. Fear of going to prison makes even a skinny thief brave. I mean look at how flippant UNKewLyingJ got when cornered and confronted with his lies - the nervous poodle barked endlessly until he finally admitted just a small portion of his wrongs.

Yes. Here is an example of some industrious employees who probably will not change their behavior if SB 553 passes. Also, the hazards of smoking are presented in this example.

The witness filming the cigarette thief encounter convinces the 7-11 clerks to just let him go.

Now that's pretty much what happened here at VCT...we forum members administered a strong whupping to UNKewLyingJ and then told him to just get the f. out.
And this might be.... Another
