Great thoughtful posts cutting edge tech. So i guess what cracks me up is someone would "improve it" by cutting out all your content and throwing up a bunch of adsense.

I know what you mean by changing blogroll links... what about all those comment and post links, right? Majority of blogs would have only a few links pointing to your site, so changing them wouldn't be too hard for the owners (assuming that people got your message just by following you), those that have a lot of links can do a direct database query to their blog to automatically replace all the instances of the "sold" domain name with the new one (assuming you keep your content with the same URLs). I would think, contacting the most important people personally, and then posting a blog post with a few follow ups after that would switch the majority of your links in a fairly short time. Plus, keeping up the good job as you always do, would bump you back up as well ;) Jay, you have too many followers, so most of them would pick up your message right away.

I did that when I changed domains here a long time ago (long time in blog years at least) and almost everyone cooperates. But it would be asking a lot of people to go through their individual posts that link here and change all of them. (and the vast majority of links here are from folks individual posts to my individual posts.)I mean, I'll change a blogroll link in a heartbeat if someone asks. But if someone wants me to thumb through 700 posts and change any URL references to them, that's probably not going to happen.@Ricardo "$366,246.00 How about that?! Not bad aye?"Aye!! I haven't had a look yet, but I suspect that is primarily based on back links (that's how most of those valuation thingys seem to work) @Max “Links can be asked to be changed.. and I think, if Jay really wanted, the majority of links could be changed very quickly to his new site/blog”

I think that another real estate agent/broker in the same are would value it more, especially if he/she understands online marketing and how to convert online leads into real business. For a person that is not even in the industry and makes money only by placing Google ads and affiliate links on the bought sites... 2K is a fair price if they're not going to develop it further... it will be just enough to make their money back and a little more before it dies. (of course you don't sell the content for this price) As far as all those links... I've seen this kind of transaction done - the bought site was dead and not ranking in a few months and the new site (which was also bought but for much cheaper) is back in business and #1 for its most competitive kw. Links can be asked to be changed.. and I think, if Jay really wanted, the majority of links could be changed very quickly to his new site/blog.As far as fair price... I think 500K and even 200K is a little bit too much of dreaming. Even if you're a realtor in the Phoenix area... and bought this site... you have to be too good to start making profit in 3 years.
