So, if was can assume a business asset is worth 5 times yearly earnings, then: Blog value in cents = 5 x (unique daily visitors x 365 x 1.4 cents) It's a rough as guts but it is a start. So if this blog, for example, gets 500 unique visitors per day, then it is worth about $12,775.

I visited Weblog Empire and I think $1k USD is not a bad price but the website had some decent visitors and maybe if you had tried a bit more you could get better price. Congradulations on your sale.

You could have got 2K on Weblog empire, the domain is very creative if you ask me. :D As for the worth, we all have a good idea of what you sold BH for.:p The value of a website depends on a lot of factors which are completely different than those measured for a website...
