Found a few people to work on certain sites and in return, I would help them build traffic to their sites and they would get a % of the revenue from mine. This was worth their time since my sites were already making money.

I was finding them doing everything from creating fake sites that sent redirects through my traffic script to placing their affiliate links on banners and links. I had to spend more time baby sitting than anything else.

Comes down to only YOU can make money for YOU
The thieves question has to be dealt with on an individual basis. As I said I wouldn't give people the keys to the shop without having absolute trust in them and that is hard to get. What would they need to keep the site running on a ticking over basis?

As for the work level, this is an alternative to selling off a site or just dropping it because it's not being worked on. If the people need baby sitting then what's the point?

Again, this is not an idea for people with sites they want to work on or are working on. It's an alternative to selling for a few months turn over.

No Paul, and unlike you, that stops me from commenting on if it was a good deal or not.

I try not to offer opinions based on zero information.

I'll leave that to you.
You said I didn't know. I said it probably wasn't what he would of made leaving it to run down over the years. Now unless he has a deal that includes a monthly payout, who do you think is probably right?

Once again Paul, you have no clue. Every corporation has shares. They may be privately held but can still be traded and sold.
Then the part of the license that bans transfer of the license comes into effect.

Why should someone buy an asset for their companyfor $30, that they can resell? If they want that, let them buy exclusive.
