How do you value something like this?

I own a network of 15 related sites. They do an average of $20 a day in adsense. They grow about $1-$3 a week in rev. How do you put a value on a group of sites like this, or can you?

 

well take average revenue, add interest rate and determine how many years you would sell for. Things that would effect multiplier: time (how much time is needed to maintain these sites/trends), age (how far back have you been doing this, is it stable, any other pertinent trends), field (is this a new field, stable one, declining field), complexity (how quickly could someone else just copy what you are doing, is there anything novel about it adding value), scalability (can this be easily expanded and/or grown). those we be some basic indicators, the more unique/complex/scalable/old and the less time it takes to manage, the more valuable imo.

 

I would mutiply the monthly revenue with by 8-10 months. So it could be that $20 a week x 4 weeks = $80 now multipy that $80 to lets say 10 months if there really is great potential = you get $800 now thats one way to valuate the group, but if ur income is increasing then let it increase, also please note that it also depends on how long you have been getting this income, the more proof you got the better it is when it comes to selling.

 

Thanks ya'll for the input. I plan on letting it grow for a while.

But if I could prove that it is a market thats been around for decades, the revenue has been stable for a year, it takes NO time whatsoever to maintain them - they are self maintained, and that There is little to no competition, they would be easy to sell?

What I am curious about is this -

If the revenue increased greatly over time, and all the factors still remained, would someone pay thousands or more for revenue sites?

 

Ok, I need to correct my first post - They make $20 a day not a week. - Sorry about that

 

I think if you could prove all that and they are making $20 a day then you should be able to sell for about $3000-$5000 minimum, in my opinion but this is realy a blind valuation as it relly does depend.

 

Thanks. I could prove it no issue. I just want to grow them more, and maybe sell later when I can get more. But, then the issue of "do I want to keep them for the income" will have a factor

So, we will see. Chunk of money - vs - Steady Income ???
