I'm worth $1M now
Someone forwarded me this link about the "value" of my website (danheller.com):
http://bizinformation.org/us/www.danheller.com
In short, the bizinformation.org says that my site is worth $944,079. They don't say how this value is determined, but one assumes that visitor traffic is somehow involved. If so, imagine how the value would change if their stats were more accurate. They estimate my traffic to be around 60K unique visitors a month, yet my web server logs show that, on average, I get just shy of a half million visitors a month. Their being off by 1 order of magnitude suggests that my site's value should be more like $10M.
I'm accepting offers. :-)
More seriously, this did prompt me to think about my site and terms that I never really talk about publicly. So, I'm going to produce a small series of posts (after this one) that discusses each of my various revenue streams in the context of 2009: a year in review, as it were. It turns out that last year, a great deal of long-past efforts started to materialize into actual revenue, so I thought I would report on them. Stay tuned.
That is, unless someone buys me out beforehand!
