Calculate the value of your website, FREE

Posted in  Webmaster Tools

Your Website Value is basically a calculator that evaluate the yearly potential value of a website based on many factors such as: Number of pages indexed in search engines; Number of sites linking to the website; Quality of website; Popularity of the website.

How accurate is the estimate?
In terms of comparing two websites, its probably very good. If the website is content based only, its probably very good. However, it’s probably under-estimated for website that gathers user information (such as emails) or sell services/products. For example, they estimate google worth around 2Billions, but we all know google is worth alot more. But if google only had web pages (no clients, no services, no products) with the same History/Popularity/Friendliness/Interest/Recognition/Depth, their estimate would probably be quite good.

Our verdict
Give it a try, it’s worth it.
