How Much Are My Sites Worth?

    I had to ask this..

    About The Sites : I have 5 sites, each 3 months old, each making $40-$50 a month from adsense. Each site gets about 3000-6000 page views a month. The sites are in entertainment niche (About Indian Movies)

    Traffic : 85% traffic is direct traffic from youtube, 10% search engines, 5% referring sites.

    Stats : cpc is 3-5 cents a click and ctr is aroun 30% & I already got 3 checks from adsense.

    I want to sell them because Now I want to make a big site with about 200 pages with high keywords, So I need to pay for content & SEO to rank high.

    I've got adsense checks of $101,$205,$219, and now $70 in 8 days (current month)

    My Questions To you -

    1. How much are my sites worth?
    2. Where & How To Sell Them?
    3. Any precautions to take while selling?

    You can sell your site with month adsense earning X 6~10
    And you can sell them at DP BST section

    well if you are site is making 50$ a month, then you can sell it for 500$ i.e. 10 months of its revenue. but you have to show the buyer, the traffic proof, adsense revenue screen shot.

    Precautions:
    Ask the buyer to pay you, before you handle the sites
    As far as possible, get from a veririfed paypal account.
    Ask the buyer to include the reason "payment for sites" while making a transaction. this is to ensure that, if he charges back in future, you can tell the reason to paypal.

    Never accept the payment as a gift, if i am correct, they cannot be charged back(i am not sure about this alone)

    Yup I have all the proof - I can provide adsense screenshots, Google analytics data, even the pics of my checks from adsense.

    In my country you could easily get 5 to 9 times multiplied with the sites revenue.
    With great rankings (Google SERP) you can often claim some more.
    3000-6000 page views are very little even though it is a niche site.

    My best tip is to search engine optimize your site for the top 10 longtail keywords (exact match) and then include the great rankings you have achieved in the sales paper. This can and will give you an advantage!

    I would say it is half of your yearly profit if you make money from AdSence only.

    If you show the proofs of adsense earnings and tell page rank.if your website is minimum PR2 then you place bid at DP buy/sell place.There are other place to sell like site point but at DP you will find serious buyers.

    Flippa is probably the safest place to sell your website. If it makes $40-50 then you can surely sell it for a price between $600-800

    Would web script affect the price? let's say, a friend of mine want to sell his website, he wrote the script a year ago and nowadays it makes around up to 3000 $ a month. I see the rank is still 0 but his traffic mostly from google and yahoo and the web has around 5xxx-8xxx visitors a day.

    Totally agree this is the right way to predict your site worth or you may also go to dnscoop :)
