Ask HN: Advice on selling app?
2 comments
Thanks amoore.
Absolutely agree with adding as much information about your app/site as possible - especially that you were reviewed by CNET and Mashable. There are a few additional pointers available at https://flippa.com/help/sell
Also be sure to add the webapp tag to your tweetsaver.com listing.
In the spirit of the season, let us know once your Flippa account is set up and we'll send $10 worth of credits your way.
Hope that helps - good luck!
flippa.com seems to be pretty popular. You should read some other successful postings there and work hard on your description since you can significantly affect the amount your auction brings in by using good copy.
A popular valuation method is to use a multiple of average recent monthly profit. Depending on how much work it is to run your site, you might get 5-15 times recent monthly profit.
Also, if you send me some numbers, such as traffic, customers, revenue, and such, I'll probably make you an offer.

Any general advice? What are the likely ways a buyer might value the site?
Thanks!
