8 replies
In last year i have try SEO and other things to make some money but i have fail. The main reason was that i had less money to invest. Good part is that i keep learning ways to make money online and i have made it.
Short story:
In last 8 months i have made over 24k$ from one website only from adsense. I have a simple wordpress website with more then 1300 post published. The website have a rank in Alexa under 100k in global ranking and under 1000 in my country.
Big concerns:
I have start a lot of things in last period and i would like to sell the website but i have 2 major concerns:
1. The website is not in English. (the website already have lot of content that can be use again and again)
2. The website require about 10-12 hours per day to make that money. (sure, this can be outsourced and reduce the time but the profit will be lower)
Questions:
Do you thing i have any chance to sell this website?
How much i should ask for this?

I know that the website have a lot of potential, and things i do now on website can be use in English or other language but i dont have time for that. Or if someone with better knowledge about IM get the website can get a lot more money from this.

So please, if you know a few thing about selling domains, maybe you can point me in right direction. Or if you have advices for me.

Thanks.

    Sure your website can be sold. But it requires too much maintenance. Find ways to automate some of the things you need to do to make money, if possible. And maybe try outsourcing it yourself or at least figure out how much the outsourcing would take away from the profit.
    The the big question is how much of that $24K is profit?

      Thanks for answer. To answer your questions, it can be automated for sure! I had that in mind but im a control freak and i want to do things on my own and im a little scared to share with others what i do... that is the reason i make almost all for myself.
      For the moment i have one man that make few things for me to have less work and i pay him around 250-300$ per month. The profit was around $22k, maybe a little more from that $24k.

      But to explain myself, the website does not require 10-12 hours continuously work. It need around 20-30 minute work from time to time over a period of 10-12 hours. But can be automated for sure!

      Thanks again for your answers.

    If you could line up some content providers, you could add that to any possible costs of selling down thr line, and that might even increase what the sitre can be sold for. Buyers are more likely to purchase a site with the system already in place, as well as income verified.

      Yes your website can be sold easily.


      For costing you have to tell niche of your website ,as you told your website is not in English,so if it is converted to English your website can loose its potential as there will be more competitors in that case .

    I use to to sell adsense earning sites, when I was in early phase of IM career. At that time I calculate the price of adsense site as monthly earningsX12months.

    For example, if you site earns $30 per month through adsense then your asking price is 30x12= $360.

    But there are factors like income track record, niche record.... increasing or decreasing or constant

    I used adsenseflippers a lot for that...but now they have changed to empireflippers.com

    If you can automate the daily work required then you can sell it for good profit. I suggest you to list your website on empireflippers.com. If your monthly income is $5000 then you can sell it for 20 * $5000 = $100,000.
