I'm not really pushing to sell the site, the problem is I am getting countless emails from people wanting to purchase it. Probably because I'm doing such a terrible job of maintaining it.
Thanks for the responses so far, they're in line with what my thinking is. One interesting discussion I've had recently was the fact that since my site is small, commissions are based on a sliding scale with the larger affiliates getting 40% of revenue, smaller affiliates, such as myself only receive 25%.
If I went into partnership with a larger website/company/person/group, we could split the 40%, I'd be getting access to more content/reach/whatever and only getting slightly less of a percentage with potentially a lot more actual revenue.
The only reason I've considered selling is because life's hard, and I don't know if I want to sit in front of a computer forever.
