An Affiliate Blog SOLD at $28000!!!

[Siful Moni]

In recent years website buy-sell along with domain name have increased a lot. many people are selling their developed blog website for a high figure.


Last week I handled a deal through EPIK Escrow from Bangladesh which was an affiliate blog along with a good domain name.
The deal was $28K which is really a good amount for that blogging site and it took less than 24 hours to clear the payment through Local bank in Bangladesh.
Who thinks or worry about close your Domain/Website deal and get paid quickly in Bangladesh feel free to reach me for getting a quick service.

Thanks to buyer and seller for choosing Epik Escrow.

It really depends on what the domain and revenue were...

$28k could be low if it were making something like $2000/month in revenue or even $200/mo but a killer XBlog keyword that has a ton of potential type-in traffic.

What's your multiple, @Biggie? I seem to recall you once telling me it was up to like 60 months of CPC revenue (or a set BIN you had in mind) in a thread or conversation eons ago. Would the same multiple apply had you developed a site?

I am not sure the calculation with 60 months or 12 months. My best recall the site is making around $600 month from amazon affiliate sales.

They have a few more sites to develop so its a good ROI for the seller IMO

the site is making around $600 month

In this case, $28K is a multiple of 46 or 47 months (28K / 600), which seems around what is done these days. Examples of current offers: https://empireflippers.com/marketplace/

If they manage to develop sites which make $600 per month or more, that's very good. They could also keep them and run them (maybe try to develop them more). They would earn that much in a few years period, and still be able to resell them later.

That would be an approximate 47 month multiple (assuming that's pure profit).

$28,000 / $600 = 46.66
Sales price / monthly profit = 47 month multiple

Let's say they wanted to price it with a 60 month multiple BIN, then it'd be $36,000.
$600 * 60 = $36,000

I would say that this is a decent price, but, you never know without the site being disclosed. The blog could easily have been about a trend or a fad that fades away in 2 years despite all the content you add to it and nurture, think..., a blog about all the TY Beanie Babies that could clear $600 at the peak of the trend but could barely break $6 now (I don't know, just the first thing that came to my head).

I agree here. But it requires more time to manage a blog, write contents. So they sold it for a decent price.
In the mean time another news I can share the seller migrating to Australia from Bangladesh. So its a very good amount at this moment for him.

@amplify I can say its a very informative blog. which is about Hobby Milling machine and DIY projects.

Without knowing much about the blog, I don't know if it sold for a decent price.

Obviously, someone (the seller) was happy with that number as they pushed it out for the price, so it was at least worth that to the buyer and seller. Congrats!
