Any site on the Internet with proper promotion can become a stable source of income. The subject matter and purpose of the sites are different. Some are the business cards of companies, helping to sell goods or services, others make a profit through the sale of advertising spaces and participation in affiliate programs. It is important for both sellers and buyers to correctly determine the value of the site in order to get the maximum profit from it.

Step 1
You can estimate the cost of a website using online services. When evaluating the siteprice.ru service, it takes into account such parameters as the name and age of the domain, the presence of TIC and PR, the number of visitors, as well as the costs of maintaining the site and income from it. Automatic services do not take into account many other factors, so their estimate is approximate and can be considered as the minimum for a particular resource.
Step 2
When calculating the cost yourself, you should take into account the main indicators of the site:
• Domain level, brevity and beauty of the domain name. Second-level domains are more valuable than first-level domains.
• Themes of the site. The most popular are entertainment portals, social networks, online stores, construction sites, real estate, and cars.
• Indicators of TIC and PR. The higher the better.
• Website traffic, number of subscribers. Sites with high traffic have more prospects for monetization. However, personal blogs with a change of ownership can lose the bulk of their subscribers and visitors. This should also be taken into account when buying an Internet resource.
• Design and software. The more professional and beautiful the website design is, the more expensive it is. A website built on a free platform will be cheaper than on a paid platform.
• Age of the site. Sites aged three years and above are highly respected on the Internet.
• The number of site pages and the presence of pages in the index.
• Ratio of profit and cost. Usually this criterion is the most important in assessing the cost. The average indicators of the profitability of the Internet resource for a month during the year are calculated and multiplied by 6-12 months. The resulting result will be the cost of the site.
Step 3
If you order the creation of a website from scratch, then you will need the services of a designer, programmer, layout designer, copywriter and seo specialist. Website creation and content services depend on the prestige of the company you contact. Well-established companies and freelancers can charge 2-3 times more for their work than beginners. For example, the design of a business card site will cost you 3-7 thousand rubles, and the creation of an information portal with complex software - 20 thousand rubles or more. For writing one article, the copywriter will take from 100 rubles and more. To increase website traffic, it is necessary to optimize pages and build up the link mass. A competent optimizer will require from 5000 rubles for the promotion of a resource. In addition, you will need to pay for hosting and the cost of the domain - from 2000 rubles per year. The total cost of a new site will be from 10,000 rubles and more.
