    I want to sell some of my sites, but it is very difficult to figure a price for it. Where do you check it before you sell a website?

    well most of the time it depends on traffic and users of your site, or check PR of your site, search google for prchecker..

    There are a few website estimators, but most of the time they are off by miles. I suggest posting your site links on forums specified for appraisals. That will probably be your best option.

    Well, what you need to ask is what is the site worth to you? By that I mean, are you making money from it, do you get a lot of traffic, etc. On DigitalPoint, sites are usually valued at 12 months revenue. You might get more, depending on what it's worth to the bidder(s). Traffic is important too and you need to evaluate if you are under-monetizing it (potential for someone else to make more). You also need to face the prospect you might have invested more in it than you'll get (if revenue is less than what you've invested). If the website isn't making any money, you can still try to sell it and demonstrate its value (for example traffic, domain name, rank for keywords, etc).

    Of course, if the sites have been hit by a penalty or Penguin/Panda (or any other update) then you can't really base the price on revenue before this happened.

    Ignore estimator websites; they are useless.

    Good luck.

    Here is valuation for one of your blogs: http://mcjonline.com/www/googlenexusoneblog.com
    You can use this service to evaluation other website, it gives nice information and sometimes it is accurate but since it is automated don't trust it blindly.

    When it comes to website valuation everything comes down to traffic and income. Website are usually selling between 6-18 month revenue it widely depends on how much visitors your website gets, for how long it is online, how unique is content, design and platform. There are many factors but if your website is not generating any income you can't expect to sell it for more than $XX

    Web Site values greatly depend on profit, ROI, traffic, and content. It has VERY little to do with those cheesy web sites that attempt to predict your earnings and estimated worth. In fact, one of my auto loan web sites makes over $20,000 a month of gross profit. It's advertised through Adwords and costs only $2,500-$3,500 a month in advertising. Those free online services estimate it's worth at like $20.

    For a rough idea use semrush.

    Other than that you should look for the price of sites being sold within your industry.

    no general page that can assess the value of pages.
    Value depends on earnings, the number of visitors, costs, age of domain, etc.
    yield x 12 to 24 = value

    Alexa.com is a major player in how Google will rank a site. Check them out, if your not listed, you need to get listed on there.

    What about the traffic of your site.
    If it has good seo then you'll get good price.
