Greetings, Hunters! I'm happy to share something I’ve been working on that might come in handy for many of you. As someone who loves building websites and prototypes, I’ve got a bunch of projects with fine domains that just sit there without any monetization. I’ve noticed that people are selling websites at auctions for decent prices, even when they don’t have any revenue. Naturally, I wondered how they’re coming up with these prices. I looked around for services online, but most of what I found was pretty basic—either using revenue multipliers (which doesn’t help if your site isn’t making money) or just looking at the domain age. It felt like something was missing. So, I started chatting with folks who are into flipping websites and discovered a few other important metrics that can really impact your site’s value, even if it’s not generating revenue. With this info, I built a tool where you can input various metrics about your website, and it’ll give you an estimated price that’s as close to the real value as possible. The basic estimation is completely free and takes just a few minutes to fill out the checklist. If you want a more detailed report that breaks down the price and will help you to imporve it's valuation, you can get that too—normally for a small fee. But today, with the launch-day coupon code PHLD4D, you can grab it for just symbolic $1. I hope you find this tool useful, and I’d love to hear your feedback. Cheers!

@vorniches Interesting concept! Cool list of the metrics, definitely helpful when estimating the price. I guess, it would be much easier to auto input most of the fields with some API integration from Semrush or similar. I wanted to try the tool but dropped half way.

Hi Sergei, congratulations on the launch! I personally think that the tool might be giving higher estimations- given what has happened since Google search algorithm updates and the introduction of AI answers at the top of the search, a lot of websites with Google as their primary sources of traffic have declined in traffic, hence also leading to lower revenues, and thus lower confidence within website buyers. Unlike a year ago, website valuations today are being sold for lower multiples than they were before, and this change might be something crucial to take into consideration. I really like how easy it is to just enter information and get a quick valuation, and I think that making tweaks based on the current state of the market could help make results more relevant!

@aniruddha_j Hi Aniruddha, thanks a lot. And thank you for the feedback! What do you think, how inflated could the estimate from the tool be, considering the current situation? Is it, for example, 2x the price or perhaps about 30%? My goal wasn't to create a super-accurate tool, just to show approximate price ranges based on data. But it would be great to adjust this as much as possible.

💡 Bright idea

@vorniches I'm seeing 2x to 2.5x, whereas sites are going for 1x - 1.5x yearly multiples these days in no-reserve auctions. Totally get your point! Also, a great method to monetize could be to sign up for affiliate programs from website marketplaces like Flippa, Motion Invest, Empire Flippers, Namecheap, etc. Just an idea!
