Prospective buyers evaluate websites from different sides, and one of the most important aspects is the earning potential. It includes attractiveness for advertisers, ability to provide high conversion ratio, good discoverability and more.\n<h3>Monetize Your Website Before Selling<\/h3>\nThe sooner you start monetizing the website, the better: most buyers request information about the blog performance over several years. But there is something you can do even if the time for sale approaches: show that your project has a high monetization potential:\n<ul>\n \t<li>Adding and optimizing <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.travelpayouts.com\/en\/how-to-make-money-with-google-adsense-on-my-website\/\">contextual advertising<\/a><\/li>\n \t<li>Joining <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.travelpayouts.com\/en\/best-travel-affiliate-programs-and-networks\/\">affiliate networks<\/a><\/li>\n \t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.travelpayouts.com\/en\/travel-marketing\/\">Optimizing your website<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\nWhile pursuing a higher income, do not forget about the audience. A responsive and user-friendly design will help easily navigate on your website and improve the reading experience.\n\nDon\u2019t forget to add videos, high-quality images and the killer call-to-action. All those visuals and marketing techniques are able to make your website generate consistent revenue and provide high return on investment (ROI), valuable for a buyer.\n<h3>Calculate Your Website Cost<\/h3>\nHow to assess the value of my website?\n\nThe simplest way to learn how much your website costs; multiply the monthly net income with 20-30. Such multiplication is usually used for content projects. But this method is not clear, as you could have a very expensive 3 letters domain name or have a unique project.\n\nTo set pricing, you need to consider such factors as:\n<ul>\n \t<li>Net income;<\/li>\n \t<li>Domain name;<\/li>\n \t<li>Traffic;<\/li>\n \t<li>Awareness;<\/li>\n \t<li>ROI;<\/li>\n \t<li>Ranking<\/li>\n \t<li>Design, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/ariananews.co\/en\/internet\/top-5-website-value-calculator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Website value calculators<\/a> make calculations automatically, but the results they produce are rather a benchmark than the final price.\n\nWhile estimating your website cost, consider its earning potential in the future, so the price won&#8217;t be equal to the amount of money you have invested in blogging.\n\nAnother aspect influencing the blog cost is its&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.travelpayouts.com\/en\/how-to-increase-trust-flow-for-websites\/\">reliability<\/a>:\n<ul>\n \t<li>Stable revenue<\/li>\n \t<li>Scaling and growth<\/li>\n \t<li>Automated systems in place<\/li>\n \t<li>Several sources of income<\/li>\n \t<li>Numerous sources of traffic<\/li>\n \t<li>Highly effective USP<\/li>\n \t<li>Awareness of market leadership<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nAdditionally, the business model also influences pricing. For example,&nbsp; e-commerce sites might cost more, as they are likely to generate more money: <a href=\"https:\/\/digitalexits.com\/whats-your-online-business-worth\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">in 2018, online stores accounted for almost half of the total deals<\/a> on Internet:\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;69f14c984ccb3&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" class=\"wp-block-image alignnone size-full wp-image-5375 wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on-async--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.travelpayouts.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/stats.jpg\" alt=\"Calculate your website cost\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5375\" width=\"1864\" height=\"980\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.travelpayouts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/stats.jpg 1864w, https:\/\/www.travelpayouts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/stats-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.travelpayouts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/stats-1024x538.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.travelpayouts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/stats-768x404.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.travelpayouts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/stats-1536x808.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.travelpayouts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/stats-932x490.jpg 932w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1864px) 100vw, 1864px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on-async--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n<h3>Prepare the Documents<\/h3>\nOnce the website is ready, it&#8217;s time to draw papers.\n\nFor starters, create an information memorandum&nbsp;presenting your blog\u2019s history, the reasons for selling, USP and offers to the new owner, and other crucial factors. Include also the marketing strategies you\u2019ve implemented, targeted keywords, competition analysis, sales history, conversion rates, etc.\n\nOnce there is a prospective buyer, prepare the contract with the agreed dates and price. Also, consider seeking the support of a lawyer that knows local and state business laws and can protect you from scammers.\n\nThe documents you prepare should present the proof of ownership, spending and revenue records. It&#8217;s not always necessarily.\n<h2>Making the Sale<\/h2>\nAuctions (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.flippa.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Flippa<\/a>, for instance) are the best option for startups and small businesses. On those platforms, potential buyers place bids for your website, and its cost can increase manifold.\n\nIf the price of your website is under $100K, use such marketplaces as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bizbuysell.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BizBuySell<\/a> to post listings identical to classified ads.\n\nOtherwise, websites in the range of $250,000 \u2013 $20,000,000 can be sold with such brokers as <a href=\"https:\/\/digitalexits.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Digital Exits<\/a> that help finalizing the sale and making a transaction.\n\nFor large deals that amount to $20M, it\u2019s better to apply to an investment bank, for example,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.foundersib.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Founders Advisors<\/a>.\n<h3>Specialized Websites<\/h3>\nTo speed up the sale, consider using one of the following specialized websites.\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flippa.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Flippa<\/a><\/h4>\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;69f14c984cec2&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" class=\"wp-block-image alignnone size-full wp-image-5376 wp-lightbox-container\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on-async--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on-async-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.travelpayouts.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/flippa.jpg\" alt=\"Flippa\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-5376\" width=\"1581\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.travelpayouts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/flippa.jpg 1581w, https:\/\/www.travelpayouts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/flippa-300x108.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.travelpayouts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/flippa-1024x369.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.travelpayouts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/flippa-768x277.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.travelpayouts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/flippa-1536x554.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1581px) 100vw, 1581px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\taria-label=\"Enlarge\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on-async--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.imageButtonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.imageButtonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\nFlippa is an auction site that claims the lowest fee for sellers and focuses on e-commerce websites, domains, apps, SaaS and content websites.\n\nThe platform features a user-friendly categorized interface, a valuation tool and a dedicated discussion board that allows for negotiation with buyers.
