how to estimate website value

how to estimate website value i heard about smartpagerank.com is it works?

 

I run www.valueontheweb.com, which is a membership site with tools to estimate site value. We have a database full of real website sales that we use to evaluate sites. The problem is, most of these online tools jack the price way up b/c they don't use real data. But people like them because they give high dollar estimates.

If you want to sign up, use promo code dpoint and you get half price. If you just want a blog evaluation, we do that for free at www.valueontheweb.com/free, but keep in mind that there aren't a lot of real blog sales to compare with.

jalpari,
Honestly I don't trust domain name estimates. They always seem to come in higher than what they end up selling for, with the exception of a small group of premium domains.

 

use http://www.dnscoop.com.

 

I tried this one for my beauty related site and its giving too much high price ( i can't believe)

These tools seems useless we can use them just for fun

 

lol, it gave my .info domain an extremely high price.

What I would do is probably base website value on content, amount of visitors, and the amount you earn off of it.

 

Its true dnscoop.com is a good site, but the real value of a website can't be estimated so easily.

Personally I feel that all online estimators are inaccurate. They are only good at estimating backlinks, pagerank, etc.

 

Forget it. IMHO the online website valuation tools are lacking accuracy and common sense. An automated script is not going to tell you anything other than raw data points such as unique visitors, original date of domain registration, whois, how many nameserver changes, backlinks, PR, and possibly trending data (increasing or decreasing). Sure those pieces of information are important, but it should not be the final word on the value of a website. Consider what the market will bear at auction or private sale. How much monthly revenue vs expense vs profit? How much time is involved to maintain current levels vs growing the audience? Is there a formal business plan, marketing plan, spreadsheets of documentation, etc?

The online automated tools are interesting but should not be given much weight when you consider all of the other factors that go along with estimating the value of a website.

 

This is 100% correct. Valuation cant be determined by a online tool--unless your profit is determined solely by something like pageviews. Pageviews is a relatively hard thing to fake so if the are making money only by adsense, then verify their unique page views and ask to see their adsense account earnings of somesort. You have to look at how the site makes money and then look for key variables to check (to make sure the owner isnt lying).
