Selling a website - worth it?

[jaspey]

Ive got an online store i setup last year and it has done a few sales as well as some work on seo etc, been looking all over the net to see anywhere i can list it but having trouble, ebay is always an option but its totally flooded with generic dropship ones, any ideas?

I browse the flippa site quite regularly to see what is on the market place in terms of websites.

i used to buy and sell websites on digitalpoint.com

Its been taken over recently by people from around the world putting wordpress on a domain and selling it as a website. But there are a few decent buyers and sellers on there

reggiemental, thanks for the link

There are so many places to list and there are a million references online to the biggest marketplace, Flippa so I'm surprised you had trouble. Out of academic interest would you share how you tried to find a place to list and what keyword you were using? I'd appreciate that.

businessesforsale is a fantastic place to sell (as are bizquest, sunbelt network etc) but tend to be more suited to higher value businesses. Do also try daltons. Digitalpoint is at the other end of the scale - best suited to the below $1000 (GBP 600) websites. But Shaun, the owner, has made some very positive changes there and this is one maketplace that has great potential.
