Buying a holiday affiliate marketing website?

Hello,
I have been offered a website which lists available holidays to buy, which is linked to an affiliate marketer. If someone buys a holiday using my site, I get a commission. The seller would like £70 for the site. Also taking into consideration the cost to advertise the site, do you think that this is a worthy investment?
Thanks
Stephen

No!.But it is a good way to lose 70 quid.“So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.”0

If you want to get involved in affiliate marketing you should probably buy something bigger than a £70 site. Alternatively, you could try and build your own site!0

Probably not!
But impossible to judge unless the seller gives you real, demonstrably accurate and true stats on how much it makes.
If he/she only wants £70 for it it won't be much (otherwise the cost would be rather higher!) and the real deal might be that they make money on selling these sites to unsuspecting punters, not that the sites make money. It smells like a scam.0
