Want to Sell Your Blog? Want to Buy Blogs? Drop Me an Email

by Daniel Scocco

Over the last month I helped two friends to sell their blogs, and one of them went for over $30,000. Even before that I used to get emails from people wondering if I would be interested in purchasing their blogs, or if I knew someone that would.

Most of the times I am interested in taking a look, and I also know many people that buy and sell websites for a living, so I am thinking about exploring the business side of this market. Many sellers and buyers prefer to keep the transaction private instead of going with a public auction on Sitepoint or similar, because it makes the overall process smoother.

So if you are trying to sell your blog privately, drop me an email and we can arrange something. Similarly, if you are interested in buying blogs privately, let me know and I will keep you in the loop of the opportunities available. You can reach me on daniel AT dailyblogtips.com.

Update: Please only consider selling if your blog is already making $300 or more monthly. If that is not the case, it would not be a good idea for anyone.

@Daniel, how much do you think my blog can be worthy?
Daniel Scocco on June 26th, 2008 2:01 pm

@Young, difficult to say by just taking a look. If you want to get an estimation email me current monthly revenues, their source, daily uniques and rss subscribers, for the past 3 months at least.
Young on June 26th, 2008 2:14 pm

Thank you, Daniel, I will send you an Email soon.
By the way, may I ask whether you will earn money from helping people buy or sell their blogs?
Daniel Scocco on June 26th, 2008 2:24 pm

@Young, most of the times yes.
caschy on June 26th, 2008 2:24 pm

Only english blogs?
Daniel Scocco on June 26th, 2008 2:27 pm

@Caschy, any language, but non-english blogs tend to sell for less.
Gerard on June 26th, 2008 2:32 pm

Uhh yeah. I’m trying to sell http://blogopoly.info at the moment. Its down right now though.

I’ll add you to my contacts just in case.

How about mine?
Missy (from G34 Media) on June 26th, 2008 4:04 pm

Are you only currently looking at blogs. What about static sites? I am wanting to sell an image host.

Let me know if your only looking at blogs. Thanx!
Grace on June 26th, 2008 4:44 pm

Maybe you can start charging people for helping them sell their blogs!

Pandora’s Box officially open for business!
Klajdi Hena on June 26th, 2008 5:21 pm

What if you have a Blogger blog?
Daniel Scocco on June 26th, 2008 5:21 pm

@Missy, static sites work also, as long as you are making at least $500 monthly already.

@Robert, no kidding .
Daniel Scocco on June 26th, 2008 5:52 pm

@Klajdi, please check my update.

You are in a good position daniel. With the amount of subscribers you have you are sure to have a lot of people who are looking to sell their website! I hope you can help a few people out.
Steven Snell on June 26th, 2008 10:15 pm

Daniel,
I think this is a good business idea for you. You have plenty of knowledge and experience, not to mention contacts. If I’m ever in the market to buy or sell I’ll come to you.
Kazzi on June 27th, 2008 5:09 am

Hi Daniel
I’ve been subscribing to your blog for a good few months now and find your articles most interesting. however, I’m relatively new to blogging and I’m struggling with certain aspects and am especially baffled as to why so many people seem to be making so much money with adsense and my total earnings to date with 2 blogs running is still only $4.40. So I guess I’ll have to wait before I join your list of people wanting to sell lol

Keep up the good work, I enjoy reading your tips and you never know I may get somewhere with it all myself one day!

Regards
Kazzi

You should start charging people for helping them sell their blogs!
Moise Levi on June 27th, 2008 8:02 am

Hi,

I was asked if my blog is for sale ; but how do you sell a blog where the readers just come to read your thoughts on global investments ?

Unless of course they pay me to keep on writing and take over the ads for themselves ?
Egonitron on June 27th, 2008 12:03 pm

Instead of 50 comments saying “how about mine?” Show him you’re actually interested and not just curious by putting a bit of effort into it.

Look up all your stats for the past few months, lay them out in detail. Give the past few month’s earnings laid out from each income source.

Good luck with this Daniel, I may be emailing you soon
eRealMedia.com on June 30th, 2008 2:18 am

Surely good opportunity for bloggers but I don’t think most of them will go for it. One of the reason bloggers do blogging because they love to write, of course they can sell their own and start new one.
Rishi on July 2nd, 2008 12:10 pm

I just want to know how much i can get for this at this time
Rocky on July 6th, 2008 6:07 am

Safa on November 6th, 2008 3:07 am

What I wanted to ask, is what if you are writing your blog as an online diary, and you’ve got this great story that will sell? How do you go about selling what you’ve written? or do you sell your site?
Dee on November 6th, 2008 1:31 pm

Can you let me know how much my blog is worth? If anything
Titania Jones on March 27th, 2009 11:01 pm

Hi:

I am a Political Journalist, interested in selling my daily conservative political column.

The site was originally set up in January 2008 with SEO, and since first month it opened, it has had pretty good statistics. Howver, I no longer have SEO or feeds set up, and even so I still have decent statistics.

My stats are located at conservative-dispatch.com/webstat

I can best be reached by email at:
titaniajones@dbzmail.com

Look forward to hearing from you

The URL is in my name. Let me know if you’re interested in helping me out.

Thank you,

WeCreateContent on July 30th, 2009 5:01 pm

I just stumbled on this site, really seems like a good resource. The I-trepreneur.com blog (stated above by this Alex person) was completed because of the hard-work and effort of many writers (from the US and the Philippines).

This Alex Kauffman person should be banned and jailed for scamming people. Daniel, please don’t help this person or he will continue his shameful activities.

Hi Daniel, I have a blog to sell and the reason for selling it is that i find it difficult to drive traffic to it because of my schedule, so ihave not made money from it and it is six months old. Please, can you help me sell it. I dont mind the amount, I just can’t give it up like that.
You can reach me through my email id i submited with this comment.
Thank you.
