    If a website makes $1k a month, how much should it sell for?

    say a website consistently makes $1k a month, month after month, and takes about 20 minutes a day to maintain.

    How much should it ask for a selling price? How much do you think it should sell for?

              I'd say about 10-12 months of revenue but it all depends on the site. If it's unique and with potential for growth then more.

              If it's a mainstream site and you're interested in selling it, hit me up, I'm always looking for mainstream sites to buy.

                  You should be able to get about $10K to $15K.

                    Just curious what its worth. I just had it sitting there figuring its nice extra money but if I got enough money to sell it I might sell it.

                                You guys are nuts. It is 6 months or so. If it is all SEO it is even less. Not trying to beat you up on it but everyone says 12 months until you are actually looking for a buyer.

                                  This is the first thread I have ever seen anybody say 10-12 months. Did Internet stability suddenly sky rocket?

                                  Its always been said 3-6 months, or better yet, whatever somebody will pay you. It is really hard to judge though without knowing what kind of site it is. A site that has been online for years is going to be worth more than a new site simply because it has more stability and loyalty.

                                  By you saying the site only takes 20 minutes a day to update lowers the value, IMO. It sounds like a very simple and automated site that could crash very easily. Paying 10-12 months on that would be a HUGE risk.

                                    LOL you are right. 9-12 months is crazy unless it is some super established big company.

                                      realistically you will get 6 months, but I personally wouldn't sell it for anything less than 12... you are probably better off running it to the ground than selling it...

                                        Id say 20 months if it really does take just 20 a day to maintain without losing any profitability.

                                        a lot depends on how well developed, domain and artwork, etc etc

                                                  a lot depends on how well developed, domain and artwork, etc etc
                                                  20 months is WAYYY to much if its not secure and stable

                                                        Amazing how this guy calculates his turnover based on 5 months... so :

                                                        Ive got a site for sale, its doing 1 mln a year (since it just made a sale in 10 mins so 6 times the sale time 24 time 365 is one million) whats it worth?

                                                        5k turnover can be *woosh* in 1 sec if its depending on low retention etc

                                                            Its always been said 3-6 months, or better yet, whatever somebody will pay you. It is really hard to judge though without knowing what kind of site it is. A site that has been online for years is going to be worth more than a new site simply because it has more stability and loyalty.

                                                            By you saying the site only takes 20 minutes a day to update lowers the value, IMO. It sounds like a very simple and automated site that could crash very easily. Paying 10-12 months on that would be a HUGE risk.
                                                            I'm not sure what the 20 min a day update has to do with anything
                                                            what determines the price IMO is where the traffic comes from, SE traffic can be here today gone tomorrow, traffic from hardlinks from other sites tends to be more 'permanent' etc

                                                              depends on the kind of site & the variance of earnings imo

                                                                                        Its always been said 3-6 months, or better yet, whatever somebody will pay you. It is really hard to judge though without knowing what kind of site it is. A site that has been online for years is going to be worth more than a new site simply because it has more stability and loyalty.

                                                                                        By you saying the site only takes 20 minutes a day to update lowers the value, IMO. It sounds like a very simple and automated site that could crash very easily. Paying 10-12 months on that would be a HUGE risk.
                                                                                        Sly, 3 to 6 months is the average for the shit that gets flung around here. A TGP with trades someone has been running for 2 months is not worth a lot of money regardless of todays traffic. On the other hand a 50k bookmark TGP with no trades someone else was selling had top dollar offers from big players here. 10 to 15 months of income is nothing, even for online. Things are sold for this every day and there are people that would buy all they could find. I'm looking in fact but I wouldn't pay shit for TGP's, freesites, and many other things you often see for sale from this industry.

                                                                                                A solid TGP would be higher. SE traffic can go away fast. But whatever the traffic source it can go in the toilet fast. Look at the offers on paysites. They get a premium do to content but the monthly revenue is not at 12 months. It is too variable. Not sure what you have bought but try and get someone to part with $12k for internet ether sometime.

                                                                                                And just a heads up but you disagreed with pretty much the only guys buying stuff now.
