There have been a lot of blog sales recently, and now another one that I subscribe to is for sale. Jon Phillips, who also runs Freelance Folder, is putting Smart Wealthy Rich up for sale. If anyone out there is thinking of purchasing a blog, SWR is worth a look.
For the last 10 months Jon has built a large and active following of 500 subscribers. The blog is known for piling up huge amounts of comments on its posts. Some of the vital stats on SWR:
- PageRank 5
- Top 100,000 Alexa Rank
- 5,604 Technorati Rank
- 400 - 450 visitors per day
As a reader of Smart Wealthy Rich, I would love to see it go to someone who will continue to build on the momentum that Jon has created over the last 10 months. Posting has been pretty sparse the last few months, so I’m sure the traffic could easily pick up just with some added attention and time.
One thing that SWR can offer potential buyers that most other blogs can’t, a free WordPress theme for distribution. Jon developed a great free theme that I imagine draws a good number of backlinks to the site.
If you’re interested, contact Jon.
Thanks a lot Steven, really appreciate this. I hate having to let this blog go, I’m sure the new owner will be able to grow this blog (and write more posts
)
Thanks again!
No problem Jon. Good luck.
Good luck with your sale Jon.
GL on your sale Jon.
Thanks a lot guyz
Sad to see it’s being sold. All the blogs that were recently sold have just gone dead, I hope it doesn’t happen to SWR…
Hope you get big $$$$ for it! How would someone come up with a price when buying or selling a site?
Dallas,
That’s a good question. There’s a lot of factors including current monthly earnings, subscribers, traffic, etc. There’s no set formula, which makes it kind of a guessing game.
