    Well, since you've narrowed your prospective buyers down to a single company... I'd make sure that THEY made the first offer on it, and then I'd just negotiate.

    To everyone else, it's only going to be worth how ever much they can make back on it... To this specific company, however, it might be worth more.. try and figure out how much it will be worth to them.. and price accordingly.

      And with only one customer, you are pretty much governed by how much they want to pay!

      If they don't want to buy at a price you'll accept, then effectively you ain't got no customer, have you?

        You say the website is about a high tech gadget. Be careful that you aren't using a trademarked term in your domain name - otherwise they won't buy the site from you they will serve you with notice to take it down.

        Assuming you are using a generic term, I can't see that any big company will be particularly worried or bothered about a site that only receives 150 uniques a day. They probably wouldn't be interested as you are hardly diverting serious amounts of traffic away from their main sites.

        I would think your best bet would be to sign up as an affiliate with Amazon or some other company that sells these gadgets, try to make some sales and then sell it on Flippa.

          The first question is...

          Have you been approached by them or is this question hypothetical?

          150 visitors a day is good but are they buyers or just after info?

          You say you are making $5 a day from adsense & affiliate links... are any of those sales for that product or rival products?

          Does the site out rank the main companies page for the product term?


          All this will have a bearing on how much your site is worth. At this moment in time your site is probably worth $50-$100 thats without seeing it.

          Obviously if the company looked at it and saw that you monetization methods are poor then they might pay more as they realize that they can change it and make good money. Alternatively they may not be interested as they have the majority of the traffic anyway

            suemax, rosetrees, M tompson, londonwarrior,
            the website doesn't use a trademarked names in its domain. just generic name, but there are not more then 10 serious monufacturers of these gadgets. I think if there is good monetizaion method applied, for example a store/shop of these gadgets 1-3% sale would be realistic and that's about 20usd commission per sale if you sell the gadget yourselves(at amazon its 4-6% and they give 5-8usd/per sale, I generate about one sale per day).

            the website outranks all the manufacturers on the gadget generic name keywords.

            london warrior,
            also if you think that it may worth 10-20 times more, that's about 3k $ . not 100-200$

            yes, its organic traffic, if they paid for this traffic via PPC , adwords and similar... they would have to pay 1usd per visitor... this is 150usd per day!

            the website is 3 years old and I have the stats at least 2 years old.

              For the best price I would not limit myself to one customer are their PPC ads being run for this gadget

              If so go down the list send a e mail to everybody advertising.

              Tell these people that you've sent the e-mail, to there competition.

              I usually send the general e-mail to all of them. something like

              I have a site that I planned to monetize but things have changed and no longer have the time to do this.

              Since they are paying to advertise for this gadget and you are getting 150 people a day and they have definitely found a way to monetize for this traffic. would you be interested in purchasing this site.

              Please hurry because I am letting this go soon.

              ask your price or best offer

    if they used PPC engines, adwords and similar.. they would have to pay minimum 1usd/click and also they would not be able to get full traffic... is it realistic to ask the price based on adwords click value?

    Organic Traffic? If yes, then you can easily get $2000 for it if the site is atleast an year old with solid revenue proof.

    Hope this helped.

    Cheers,
