It's interesting that the two tools you have displaying the ' blog's worth' are saying different things and do not even come close the actual estimate

I find that these tools are often grossly inaccurate at least with my blogs they have been

Totally agree with you that calculating the amount of revenue the blog generates per month and multiplying it by 10 gives a pretty good estimate

Never considered the value of the posts though so that's a new tip for me. Thanks

I disagree with #2 greatly base on the estimated average of $144k to get the same number of uniques. Depending on how well you manage your QS, it can be drastically less. You can also use other PPC such as Yahoo, MSN, as well as several other lower tier PPC engines to get the same number of targeted traffic if you were going the paid route and still spend less.

I think the best valuation method was actually the rss method.

You selling John or just writing all these posts to make sure you don't get lowballed when you do start to sell. Lets just hope that this does not turn into another cash quests.

That's a whole lot of money. Puts alot of perspective on things. If I sold my little blog in many years to come I think I would be happy with the cost of hosting back and anything else as a bonus.

What would you do with the money if Bill Gates decided to buy your blog for that amount?

I think the value of the blog is based on the blogger itself, and not the name of the blog. Therefore, if some Joe Blow that buys JohnCow.com may not have the same following, and readership, since most visitors visiting and commenting on the site are here to for JohnCow.
Notice the drop in Alexa Traffic when you had guest posts while vacationing.
You can add my 2 cents to Simons. :lol:

Wow! $300k? That's a lot of money. The trouble would be finding someone out there that can afford that. Then convince them to buy it!

A website is only worth as much as someone is willing to pay for it. Are you going to use some auction to sell the site or are you just going to accept a bid silently?

Do yo use awstats for recording stats?

geomark — Wed, 09 Apr 2008 20:41:01 -0000

So you think that 30,000 uniques per month equals 360,000 uniques per year? Depending on what stats s/w you are using it either resets at the beginning of each month or uses a 30 day rolling window. So a visitor will be counted again after 30 days. So your actual yearly uniques may be little more than 30,000.

If that 30,000 monthlies is really based on 1,000 dailies then extrapolating a yearly number is even less accurate.

Something is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it.

I looked up johncow.com on SiteAmount and it says you have 724 backlinks on Google and 34,340 on Yahoo. Based just on the domain name value and backlinks the total value is: 5,444.92 ($10 for the domain name + 5434.92 for backlinks).

While that amount is out of the ballpark, I do however agree that its VALUE is correct when you take in all the parameters. I'd say $50,000-$75,000 would be the max I would pay.

It's particularly difficult to receive rss from a blog when a subscriber knows that there's a new owner. I mean, we subscribed for a reason, and mainly, that reason is the blogger himself, his personality, writing style etc.
