How much is your blog or website "worth"?

Some interesting results when I compared Deaf, deaf or hard of hearing websites or blogsites do I see what their "valuations" are worth. Websites like Gallaudet university, Deaf Video TV, ASLrocks.net, Deafread, DeafVillage, DBC, AFA, DH Foundation, AGBell, and several blogs were compared. I got some surprising "valuation" like Deaf Video TV vs ASLrocks.net. Perhaps after reading this people will learn a few things about their own website or blogsite?

Gallaudet University ...............................($5,785)
Deaf Video TV ........................................($5,430)
ASLrocks ................................................($4,385)
Deaf Nation .............................................($2,119)
Deafread .................................................($2,031)
Cochlear Americas .................................($1,696)
AGBell ...................................................($65)
Fookem and Bug .....................................($52)
Kokonut Pundit .......................................($45)
John Tracy Clinic ...................................($38)
Eh? What? Huh? .....................................($31)
I Am Thankful for My Ears ....................($25)
We Cue! .................................................($25)
Jeff's Bionic World ................................($25)
Deafhood Foundation .............................($25)
The Holism ............................................($22)
Deaf Village ...........................................($19)
Seek Geo ................................................($17)
Candy .....................................................($14)
The Orange Deafie Blog ........................($13)
Kate-Louise's Cochlear Implant Blog ....($12)
Ann C's i.reflections ..............................($11)
Radio 666 FM .......................................($10)
Deafhood Discourses .............................($10)
DBC........................................................($9)
The ASL Project ....................................($6)
AFA .......................................................($5)

Try it. Plug in a website or blogsite's URL address and see how much it is "worth." Now, remember, the My Website Worth page has a disclaimer about making valuations:

"These numbers are estimates only based on criteria available to the domain name. It does not provide a value of the company behind the website."
Despite that disclaimer you might get a fun kick on seeing what's your site is "worth." Or maybe not and throw a fit? There is no real valuation being estimated but a fake one that mirrors how much traffic a website or blogsite gets.

Enjoy!

What? $22 dollars for my blog site!?!?!? I was offended until I saw where DBC and AFA was at. LOL.

Not bad... aslhub.com is $10

We're growing...we have more embedded videos than before. Check it out: www.aslhub.com

lol

I checked that out when Shawn posted that over at Patti Durr's blog a few days ago.

Yeah, Like you, Barry, I thought well that's not bad considering I'm worth a few more bucks than DBC and AFA!

One would have to blog on a daily basis and get many hits on every post to be worth lots! Who has time for that?

;)

Thank you for making me laugh.

I don't value websites by those kinds of determinations. I value websites by the commerce it brings to the owners and causes. Take Eye Fire Vlogs website for example. It brings in an average of $150-$200 per day and in the fall months it goes up to $300-$350 per day. And in January, February it tops $12,000 to $14,000 each of the two months. The yearly outcome of Eye Fire Vlogs is a whole lot more than the values combined of the websites you've listed. So basically through my own eyes, the value of a website is really determined by the amount of fundraising results it brings to the causes I represent.

They gave me $28 lol so I know it's all complete rubbish, Holism and others are far better sites than mine... anyway the dollar aint worth much here lol.... I'd give 30 to get rid of some blogs....

LOL.. someone told me that The Deaf Sherlock was just a nickle (5 cents). I would buy it in a heart beat and give it to ridor so that he can have the pleasure to destroy it to his heart's content. But then, that'll lead to a legal battle between them. I just know it. I rather leave sherlock alone anyhow because I enjoy his blogs.

I knew EFV worth only $1.00 nothing more because EFV is considering to me unpopular deaf website.
I saw last vlog of LagunaZurfer recently and he mentioned about you. Sad to watch his final vlog.
Richard: Stop brag yourself. We knew already.

Richard,

Ever noticed the disclaimer on valuation I posted???

Bgmaron, Lavender16

There's nothing wrong with putting people under the public's microscope. I done it with pride before and will do it again soon to a VRS company.
