A WordPress blog's value can be roughly estimated using various domain appraisal services and website value calculators. Unfortunately, these blog value estimators merely consider your site's domain name, visitor traffic, PageRank, and other exterior measurements. They can't accurately measure how much your website is worth without knowing how much revenue and profit your site makes in a typical month. If you really want to get an accurate indication of just how much your blog is worth, you need to look at some raw website sales data. After all, the true value of something is ultimately dictated by what the market is willing to pay for it.
