    Hi Everyone,

    I'm considering letting go one of my PR 5 sites. They are both in the same niche.

    But I'm having some serious attachment issues. I just can't seem to sell. I don't maintain them as they are autopilot.

    Is there some sort of process one has to go through mentally/internally to let go of a site? I'm literally an emotional wreck just at the thought of letting them go.

    :confused: :(

    I have experienced similar feelings. I think once we put our heart and sole into a site we will always have an attatchment. I feel almost violated when I see one some of my sites not kept up in a manner in which I approve.

    If the site makes enough to cover domain name and hosting, why don't you keep. No matter what you make on the sale of site it probably will not truly compensate you for the time you have involved.

    That's the reason that I will probably never sell my first ever website, I just can't let it go (plus the value increases with age :D ).

    you said the sites are adsense sites and have a PR5. If they are getting you enough earnings, it will be good not to sell them

    Thank you everyone for responding.

    I'm really feeling sad about it. I asked for some domain appraisals today and it really made me feel bad that I didn't take better care of it.

    Hmmm... of to the auction block I go:( :(

    Thanks again for your replies...I need a support group:eek:
