    Isn't your blog worth as much as the cash flow it generates?

    None of the automated ones work. The best thing to do is get someone to appraise it for you.

    It's difficult to evaluate worth of a blog. We don't have a stock exchange type assessment.

    There is no authentic place that will tell you the value of your blog.

    Put your blog up for sale -- the highest offer + 10% is a good indication of what your blog is worth... :)

    Yup, I agree, those calculators are worthless

    I just ran a couple of my sites through them and the numbers make no sense

    sites with less traffic came up worth more than sites with loads of traffic, for instance

    Your site is only worth what people are willing to pay for it. The only way you can find that out is to try and sell it or have someone appraise it.

    The first step is to calculate how much money it makes. At the very least it is worth a multiple of the income monthly for a new blog, and yearly for a more established blog.

    Most businesses sell for 4-6x yearly revenue. Some even more. However, people will tell you that your blog is worth 6x monthly, which has never made any sense in relationship to any other business...unless your blog is only 6 months old.

    The appraisal sites are just junk, they are like a magic 8 ball or tarot cards. Lol

    Blogs are only worth what people will pay for them if the make money people mignt pay what they make in a year or so.

    If it is a good subject people might pay .001 or .002 a word.

    It's not that easy.

    How does it make money ? Affiliate Programs ? Adsense ? Private Advertisers ? Link Sales ?

    Also, what are the expenses ? Marketing ? Advertising ? Hosting ? VPS or Dedicated ?

    If you are making 10k a month, you need to have it professionally appraised.
