How can we estimate a website which only sell links ? - WickedFire - Affiliate Marketing Forum

hugues26 · 06-18-2010, 11:55 AM

Hello,

Many websites sell links nowadays to make more money and I wanted to know how could we estimate such a site ?
I explain : for example, a website which sells for 100$ of links by month. Do we have to estimate it at 12*100$ = 1200$ , that is to say, normal price ?

More ? Because the seller won't want to sell his site the price he can earn in one year, doing nothing ? (for example 24 *100)

Less ? Because except these links, the site has nothing ... ?

Thank you for your answers
Regards

We dont estimate site on the basis of link sale.
This could be an advantage but certainly not the main criteria in my book if I'm looking to buy a site. Ask for the number of UV per day and per month. Also, ask for any sale its making apart from link sales.

I disagree when you multiply 12 by an arbitrary dollar amount and say it is a normal price. That is not normal, that's lazy. I recommend the OP study a few website valuation articles. That should address a lot of the common questions.

I ask this question for a website which ONLY earns money selling links, and having no other type of earnings (lead,...)
In this case, I don't think the number of UV per day is important...

It's not an arbitrary dollar amount but it's what the site earns every month...
*12 is just an approximate price but of course, many factors have to be seen to have the exact price of a website...

So my question is : How can we estimate a website wich only earns money selling links ?

Quick Question - Why do you want to buy a site which is linking to hundreads of other sites (I assume you dont own those sites)? Do you plan to sell links as well from it?

In fact, I have some sites which only sell links and I would like to know how much I could sell them

John rife · 06-18-2010, 03:48 PM

It mainly all depends on various factors such as the traffic the website has

hugues26 · 06-18-2010, 03:57 PM

If we consider that there is no trafic,anything but the links... I assure it's possible, I have some websites which have no trafic and have links

timtim · 06-18-2010, 09:13 PM

i guess, many potential buyers would look to estimate value at resources like websiteoutlook.com

hugues26 · 06-20-2010, 10:12 AM

So, I will ask you the question in another way :

How much would you buy a website which earns 100$/month only with links (no trafic, no other earnings) ?

timtim · 06-21-2010, 04:05 AM

looking from your end, simple calculation: 12 months x $100 = $1200 ...atleast.
