I doubt you could figure out how much that site was making just based on the sales price alone. Traffic numbers are important but what is more important is the market and how big their reach is. Future growth is what a site like Quinstreet is looking for. A website of this type also has HUGE future growth potential, so its not just a ‘multiple’ of revenue on a monthly basis.

Even quinstreet has kept some of their acquisitions quiet. Money-Rates.com for example, was sold to quinstreet around the same time (and for probably a similar price) although that amount is not available for the public. These sites are probably doing huge revenue numbers though, and Im sure the price tag is just some multiple of those rev figures...nothing to do with domain name and little to do with development. imo Website sales of this size definitely do fly under the radar.
