Well I have had a very big surprise today I aparantly am sitting on a $USD 4 million asset.
I could not believe it, I am still surprised and am not sure that it is quite true.
What is this asset you ask?

It is right in front of you ---- my blog.
I always look at Nathan's Blog and often check out the links. A recent blog discussed Stimator, which values the website you have. Nathan's was worth about $USD 551 so I thought mine would be a few dollars. But apparently not.
Now putting aside the fact that this may be the value of blogspot. I am pretty happy right now...
Nothing to do with Blogspot... my blog's only worth ~$300 US :P
ReplyDelete"For a sub-domain you have to take under consideration if you are in a ( for example ) tumblr or blogspot context or in a situation where the sub-domain is an important piece of the main domain otherwise the final estimator value could be higher. We collect the "traffic" from the main domain during the estimation."
ReplyDeleteAlso - it makes a difference if you put in the "www." at the start of your address or not.
It does not seem to matter if I do put the http:// or www. both come up with the same amount.
ReplyDeleteI do admit that it has to do something with blogspot.com - surprising that this doesn't do the same thing for Leah.
It's interesting looking at the comparisons of our results - you get heaps more points for "web volume" - I'd be interested to know how that is measured, and whether the fact my site was down for a couple of days over the weekend had anything to do with it.
ReplyDeleteMy defunct blogspot blog still only scores about $730. Maybe it's the domain name having "online" in it... who knows.
Actually - it could have something to do with the fact that your site has ads.
ReplyDeleteA friend of mine sugested it could have to do with a percentage of active viewers. Mine was aboiut the same as your's Chris and he suggested that: As I probably have only about 10 viewers and almost all of them have posted at some stage, it would be worth more than nathans who has heaps more viewers but not all post something. How they track that I dunno but that is what he suggested.
ReplyDeleteAre you not my friend anymore on my blog for any particular reason?
ReplyDeleteIs it because I said you were a geek?
ReplyDeleteHi! a great site valuation tool is www.estimix.com . It seems to provide competitive analysis for free.
