If you own a website or a blog or a forum, looking at the PageRank of your website is an exciting thing. As I had mentioned before also, Page Rank is just one of the ways to evaluate where you stand as a webmaster. And another such parameter is Website value. Though there is no accurate measure of how much a website is worthy of, there are some online tools which provides a vague idea through its own calculations.
The calculations may be based on the Google PR, website backlinks, Alexa ranking, Compete rankings, quantcast rankings, URLs submitted to social networking sites etc. Some of the most popular websites to check your website worth are given below.
15 Free Tools to check your Website’s Value
MyWebsiteWorth is a free tool which will analyze your site, and let you know how well it’s being monetized, and what value you could sell it for. The calculation is based on Alexa ranking, Compete rank, Google PR, estimated number of visitors to the site and People rank.
Website Outlook is one of the first websites which started evaluating a website based upon its Daily pageviews, ads revenue, Alexa ranking, PR, backlinks, DMoz listing etc. In addition to website valuation, it also shows the other websites sharing the same IP address as the one being evaluated. The website has got a makeover recently and I must say I liked the previous one much more than the current looks.
3. Value My Web
ValueMyWeb uses an innovative approach to come up with your website value. Unlike other website calculators, Valuemyweb crunches through a lot of data to evaluate your website worth. SEO, organic keywords, social media, and other relevant website information are considered before valuating the website’s worth. But when I tested it on TechPP.com, it got the Google PR itself wrong!
Website Valued gives you an estimated value of your online business by profiling your website for technical information, keywords, public visitor stats and then comparing them to the database of previous site and domain sales. They also have an in-store marketplace where you can sell and buy websites. The information available here is comprehensive and detailed unlike other website valuation services.
5. Cubestat
Cubestat is a free tool for website value calculation, estimations and information. It can estimate the website worth, daily pageviews and daily ads revenue of the present domain.
6. Stimator
Stimator is a new resource that is out in public beta and they take into consideration aspects such as TLD strength and motivation factors within the buying market. For its part, web factors and comparisons with other sites on the database are also fully accounted for.
Your Website Value tries to estimate websites values, using its website value calculator that evaluate and calculate websites yearly potential based on many factors such as Number of pages indexed in search engines, Number of sites linking to the website etc.
8. U2WS
Among many options, you will be also able to get the page rank, the traffic details, etc. Finally, if you are interested in getting to know in what part of the world the website is located, you can also do that. You get a detailed information about websites, like traffic details, web statistics, website estimated value and daily income, rankings, related links, host ip address and much more.
9. Glurk.com
Glurk is a free online tool which will give you a pretty good estimate of what your website is worth. It is YOU who will be entering the values like monthly uniques, monthly revenue, years in existence etc. I believe this tool is much more accurate than others as it considers a lot of intangibles that can affect the website value like domain name length, pronunciation, income source etc.
Other sites worth mentioning
10. WorthBot
12. Welcomia
13. dnScoop
15. Blog Worth
Resources which help to evaluate a website’s worth manually
In case you are really looking to either sell your website or buy one, following resources might help you in estimating the actual worth of the website. Use these in addition to the free online tools given above to come to a logical conclusion.

@Simran,
None of these tools claim to be accurate, and it is more of a fun tool and comparative tool than anything else.

You got a really nice list of tools here. Thanks for sharing this. I’m definitely going to use a couple. The only one I’ve ever used was the app that had the Benjamin Franklin on it. haha

These types of tools are great for entertainment purposes, or to try and sell a domain to the less-than-informed, but value, including in domain names, is in the eye of the beholder.
It’s fun to look up the value of your website with these tools, but any quotes you receive likely wouldn’t give your site any more value if you’re looking for a buyer. However, if you’re selling to “newbies”, these types of tools may give you an advantage, though they never have for me (and I tried!)
I only knew of four of these — thanks for the list.

@Preetam,
LOL!! This is because, mywebsiteworth doesn’t have the capability to evaluate sub-domains. The value you see is for blogspot.com! Any blogspot.com blog will be shown the same value!
April 21st, 2009 at 8:12 am
LOLz, I realised that by seeing the number of viewers already!! Just wanted to post it up here, hehe

I only knew of about 5 of the 15 you listed.
I don’t know if anyone would buy my site as it’s my surname, but it’s nice to see what other sites value my site. I averaged around $1000 to $4500, not to bad if I say so myself.
Thanks for sharing the links.

Hi Raju, its nice piece of information. However, all sites give different value, which to trust?

Hi guys, I have found another website traffic and value estimator site. I’m talking about http://www.Estimix.com which provides everything you need: free web traffic metrics, site demographics and more. I trust that you’ll find this very useful.
September 23rd, 2009 at 8:31 am
Thanx for the information guys

There is another site out there called Web worth – “Web Worth can estimate a web sites worth or value, daily ads revenue, daily page views, back links and directory listing” http://www.webworth.info/ – Try it out looks like the data is based on traffic!
November 11th, 2009 at 6:38 am
http://www.peekstats.com is a great tool
December 19th, 2009 at 7:35 am
Thanks for the valuable info, when valuating a website you should also consider http://www.websitevaluebot.com as it will give you a value based on every aspect of the fundamentals of a website except for revenue which is the only real way to work out a websites value.
Monthly revenue times 6-12 depending on brand name, age and content is the true website market value which is why no website estimator online is accurate.
December 24th, 2009 at 6:25 pm
Thanks for sharing good resources for evaluate websites worth. Did there is any online store available for sell websites….. ?
Thanks.
