We are going to sell the largest top100 online ratings. These ratings aren’t our main business.

For four years we developed two projects - top100biz.com and topdepo.com. Each of them is a multi level catalogue, in which the sites are rated according to their popularity. The site owners can look through the detailed e-commerce statistics of their sites. They can also pay for advertising in our top100 catalogues.

The projects are profitable due to:
- google adsense banners
- umaxlogin.com search results
- optional subscription to professional listing ($79 a year)

Today we have more than 4000 free active members on both sites.

The question to e-commerce experts:
What’s the possible price of the sites like www.top100biz.com and www.topdepo.com?
Where and in what way could we find the buyers for them?

Anyone help?

Value for the sites would depend on a number of factors including:

Income (net income), often website buyers will pay approx 10x monthly revenue for a site.

Google Page rank (higher the better), you expect to add in some value for a decent ranking

Traffic - high traffic sites of 10,000 unique visits a month or more are more attractive to purchasers.

Domain name - .com always more value, and specific domain names can sell for a premium.

Hope this helps
