How to calculate the value of a domain based on earnings..?

[phantom4444]

Hi,

I would be very grateful if someone could assist me as to the value of a domain with regards to how much it earns per month in parking.....

For example I have a domain which has earned around $30 this month so is there a set calculation I should use?

Thanks for your time

9x-12x earning.

30$ month = 270$ - 360$ reseller.

well if your name is generic enough, you can even ask 10 years of revenue...

It also depends to some extent on how many months/years of consistent stats you have. If the domain doesn't have a proven track record of making a certain level of revenue it will be hard to get people to pay based on that happening for years to come.

DomainRaiders said exactly what I would.

It doesn't matter if your site made $30 this month if it is never going to make $30 again and never has before. Consistent traffic and revenue can fetch a lot more revenue than something that doesn't have that. Two examples:

I had a site that I had revenue of $xx/month for three years straight -- no up trend, no down trend, very consistent -- and I sold it for 50 months revenue.

I had another site that had sporadic good months but sometimes bad months. I sold it for 6 months revenue of the best month.

You can use backlinks quantity to increase the price (if your domain has good backlinks and maybe good pagerank it can generate much more traffic in the future with little effort by the new owner).
