    If you have 6 months stats about the traffic and earning you can list it at Flippa.It will cost you $29.You can also list it here, but when you will get 3 likes.CHeers!

    You can't sell this blog on Flippa..

    You need to have blog on your domain name name and hosting.

    You can transfer it, but you are going to be starting with a 0 domain page rank, and your visitors won't necessarily just show back up on the new site. You will have to be sure you figure out how to either backup and transfer all of the existing content (no clue how to do that on a wordpress.com hosted blog) and you will have to start SEO efforts as well as other traffic tactics to start getting visitors. This will be a process, you won't be able to sell it for a while. Well, you could try, but you sure as heck won't have anything like 10k visitors to show off.

    The link above, doesn't seem to apply to a WORDPRESS.COM hosted blog- only to self hosted (ones where you can actually access the back end and database, not just their interface.)

    However, try here

    The link in the post above doesn't explain how to move your site off Wordpress.com to a self hosted installation. However, you can try here problogger. net/archives/2009/01/03/how-to-move-from-wordpresscom-to-wordpressorg/

    Also, if you do that, you won't have traffic right away. People aren't going to know that you have a new URL, you aren't magically going to appear in the Wordpress.com search or any search engine - you are going to have to start from scratch, and start driving traffic. That means learning SEO, and paid traffic tactics, as well as social media means of grabbing visitors.

    In other words, if you tried to sell it right away, you wouldn't have any real proof of the value of the site. not for a while.

    Move the content to a hosted blog with its own domain, say a Wordpress.ORG blog. Then you can sell it. The price will depend on a number of factors such as the estimated revenue of the site (if there were a way to know - yours has no ads), appeal of the domain, size of your mailing list (if you have one and if you sell that to the buyer too), traffic, etc.

    Do be careful when moving the site from Wordpress.COM to your own host. You don't want search engines to think there's duplicate content. And you have to redirect traffic from the old URL to the new one to keep your traffic. Once that's done and the search engines know which domain you prefer, you can sell it. I suggest you talk to a Wordpress.COM and .ORG expert about how to do this the right way. I've never done this myself. Good luck.
