Selling A Offline Website

12 replies
I have a website right now that I was looking to rent to a local roofer but now Im just thinking about selling it.

Its a simple 5 page website on wordpress. its made for a local roofer

I currently have it on the first page of google.

although not in the first spot but in the 8TH spot.

It has a google places listing that was ranked number one before all the changes. Since then I have not updated the places page.

Should I wait till i hit the number one spot in organic or does that not really matter as long as its on the first page?

what do you guys think i can sell it for ?..

    I think the words "first page" have a percieved value that works.

    Kinda like if you drive a 2007 mercedes cl 600 it has about half the value of a new one but 100% of the "percieved" value when people see you driving it down the road.

    Don't sell it! Put a lead capture box on the front, then sell the leads to anyone who wants to buy them. You could also rent premium ad space on that site. Use the first page as a selling angle.

    Listing in flippa is a great suggestion. Have you done it?

    Make sure that you have some traffic data to show and even better if it starts to make some money by then

    What is your website URL?

    kind of vague description. Having a site "on the first page of google" can mean A LOT of things. what are the keywords?

      Hmm yeah what's your keyword and how many visitors do you get? I think you should keep it and make quick cash for something else. Value of a website depending on many factors.

    Perhaps-- rent it, especially if you can't sell it right away -- May put money in your pocket faster -- treat it like real estate property...
