How much is a blog worth?
Here is my valuation [for what it’s worth] …
My blog is worth $101,617.20.
How much is your blog worth?
However Ian reckons it’s worth a lot more. He wrote to me recently …
Red Cardinal’s post on 1st January prompted me to compare myhome.ie (price €50m) with Headrambles.com (price blood, sweat and tears). The gap is closing rapidly. do you think you should sell out to the Irish Times?
Myhome is the top graph, and Headrambles is the bottom one. I think the latter must be worth a fair chunk of €50m?
Then I go and find that I am quoted on the stock exchange!
Not only am I quoted, but my shares are doing quite well, thank you very much.
I seem to be bucking the international trend.
The only problem is that I don’t own my own blog! Apparently it’s owned by two others.
As Ian says – “It’s a funny old world”.
Boo. I’m only worth $6k. What a loser.
Mine is worth $12,984.42! quite I’m surprised it’s that much. I didn’t think it was possible to put a price on yours GD.
English Mum – It’s better than a kick in the arse?
Robert – Apparently my blog is worth somewhere between €50 and €50m. Take your pick. Throw a dart?
My blog is priceless to me and I’ll happily settle for that 🙂
I feel the same, Steph. Anyway, it’s not the blog [anyone can start one of them], it’s the writer. And I’m not for sale [unless the price is right, of course].
I’m really impressed, Grandad. I have two blogs. One (Never too Late!) is worth $13,548.96 and the other (Write Your Life!) only $8,468.10. I admit that my blogs aren’t very clever or popular. Oh, well. They are priceless to me. Still, I want to know where to apply for that money!

To be quite honest, Marlys, I was quite surprised myself! It’s only a bit of fun. I can’t really see the point in selling a blog anyway. An author can sell their name, but when the first new book comes out, the public will know they’ve been duped.
GD, you’re right, it IS better than a kick in the arse, and we bloggers do it for the lurve and not for the money. Anyway, yours is hugely better than mine so it’s only fair, natch.
“Anyway, yours is hugely better than mine so it’s only fair, natch.”
Rubbish! Where would I be if I couldn’t follow Bertie’s antics?
I’m with English Mum..having had one or two kicks in the arse over the years..
Aw. Bertie sends slobber xx
Owned by two others?
Grandad, Herself hasn’t sold your blog when you were asleep at Christmas has she?
English Mum – Give Bertie a drool from me xx. [P.S. I hope you and Robert B are getting on well together?]
Ian – I wouldn’t put it past her!
