I purchase sites on a regular basis. I only buy Profitable ones,
Here are some rule of thumb metrics I have developed
The Pluses
+ if there is a great domain name
+ if there is consistency in profit and traffic
+ if the site is doing over 50K yr in profit
++ if the site is doing over 100K yr in profit.
quick metrics,
site profits under 10K yr .8X of earnings (8K)
profits under 25K yr 1x earnings
Profits between 25K -50K 1.2x
Between 50K - 100K yr 1.5-1.8x
100-200K yr 1.8-2.2x
200-500K up to 3.5x
1M+ regular M&A Standards
DISCLAIMER these are MY metrics based on years of buying deals, industry knowledge, and a whole TON of additional information that I use for valuing sites. but just quick metrics. Flippa is a good place to get a pulse of the market, but not the best place to buy IMHO. Most of the deals I buy are private negotiated deals.
to be honest, I Have seen some really good sites go for 1x that were in the 500K range. deals like that are more dependent on seller motivation, and buyers quickness in cash.
All these sites BTW have their own products and services. they are NOT affiliate related sites, They are NOT advertisement based income, they usually follow a singular direct response model.
that's a quick answer, Hope it helps. PM me if your really interested in buying sites. there is just to much info for a single post
