My blog is worth $3,028, at least according to MyWebsiteWorth.com.

There are a number of sites that will calculate your blog’s apparent worth. While these may be fun, they are usually not accurate at all. They are only able to evaluate a site’s worth based on factors and information that are publicly and easily available.

Some websites offer advanced valuation tools that will ask for additional information such as earnings and possibly expenses. If you don’t mind giving these sites such information, they can give a better estimation of the value of your website that those sites that do not have any actual financial data about a website and have to guess or omit such data in their calculations.

There are also services that will, typically for a fee, have a real person examine your site and determine its probable worth. You would also need to provide them with information on your earnings and expenses too.

Of course, any of these services can only give you an estimated value, which, as noted, can vary widely in accuracy. The real value of your site is what someone else is willing to pay for it, if you were to sell it.
