    Hi everyone, I'm sitting here watching this website on flippa sell for 10,000 USD and I can't help but wonder what my website is worth... here are some general numbers. From this information could you suggest what my selling price might be?

    Website info,

    • 40,000 visits per month, 36,000 absolute unique
    • 140,000 page views per month
    • 1.3 million page views last year 2010
    • Monthly Subscription Customers income 1200 USD every month consistently
    • Ad revenues 150 USD per month
    • E-mail list is 7000 strong

    Thanks,

    Brian

    If all traffic is organic I would venture into the $20,000 range. Typically with a website you want to figure 12x monthly revenue, however if you have a site that is somewhat unique ( I would still call a profitable social networking site unique ), then you can charge some extra money for the brand being built, etc.

    Good luck :)

    The estimates I've seen usually quote about 10X monthly revenue, but with an e-mail list that usually ups the price of the site. You could always try sites such as http://www.sitevaluecalculator.com/ http://websiteprice.net/calculate/ or http://www.priceofweb.com/ to get an estimate.
