How To Sell Your Website

  Selling your website for a good price is a great option to make money online. Of course there will be many questions from the side of buyers, but answering that questions you'll provide details about your site and will add a value to it.
  Building a website requires time and dedication, and you work on it every day. By selling it everyone expects to receive a fair compensation. When you finally make a decision to sell it there will be many ways for doing that, but you should explore all the available options and make the right choice.
  Firstly, you will need to have a price in your mind for which you're going to sell. Many web masters say that the website costs as much as the buyers are going to pay. But you should take into account that you have a consistent revenue from it, and  based on that choose a good rate. Besides, the industry in which your website operates also has its key role. You should tell if your website is growing, what are the perspectives, how many skills are required to keep the website operating, the costs for website management (hosting, etc). if you use paid SEO services, you can include that information too, especially the prices.

  It'll be great if you provide to potential buyers as much information as possible.Website statistics are very important. Before presenting them you should prepare a report consisting of ''figures''. You should include details about website traffic: the number of unique visitors, the volume of traffic coming from search engines, keywords for which your site is being visited more often, your website's pagerank.
  Earning reports are also considered as a valuable information.You can include all the details about your earnings made during the last year, also the costs. You can even provide that information in an email, which will indtroduce your website, the topics it covers, etc.

  After that you can think about the price. Usually web masters ask for a price which is 2-3 times higher than the actual revenue of the website.
  You can choose to sell to a local buyer or  to someone who is not in your location. For that purpose you can create email lists of potential buyers interested in the market your website operates in. You should only contact people, who will be able to understand the value of your site.

  Here are some of the best places to sell your website:
 
1. Flippa - Which is by far on the first place with it's traffic ranks.

2. Warrior Forum - It's considered as an active forum and has a lot of potential buyers.

3. DigitalPoint Forum

4. WebsiteBroker


  After you have found an interested person, you should start negotiating.The first thing you will discuss is the price, then other aspects, such as hosting, ownership record changes, etc.
  Finally, if everything went as you planned, you can invest your money in another website, which will help you to make money online.
