Selling a Website: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I sell my website through Easy Acquisitions?
The process begins by completing our free website valuation form. Once submitted, our team will evaluate your website’s traffic, revenue, and growth potential. Within 24 to 48 hours, you will receive a detailed, data-backed offer. If accepted, we proceed by securing the transaction through Escrow.com and assisting with the domain and website transfer. In many cases, the entire process can be completed within 7 to 30 days.
What types of websites do you acquire?
We acquire a broad range of digital properties, including content websites and blogs monetized through ads or affiliate marketing, eCommerce businesses operating on platforms like Shopify or Amazon FBA, SaaS and subscription-based companies, lead generation websites, and premium domain names—particularly short, brandable .COM domains.
How much is my website worth?
Valuation is primarily based on revenue, profit margins, traffic quality, and niche relevance. Websites are typically valued at 24x to 48x their monthly net profit. For example, a site generating $5,000 in monthly profit could be valued at approximately $180,000 using a 36x multiple. Sites in high-demand niches such as finance, health, and B2B services often command higher multiples.
Can I sell a website that doesn’t currently generate revenue?
Yes. Even if your site isn’t yet profitable, we consider other key assets such as domain authority, organic traffic, high-quality backlinks, and future growth potential. These factors can significantly contribute to the overall value and saleability of your digital asset.
Buying a Website: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I buy a website through Easy Acquisitions?
Buyers begin by submitting their acquisition criteria, including preferred industry, revenue targets, and desired traffic sources. We then match buyers with vetted, off-market website listings. Once a suitable opportunity is identified, due diligence is conducted, payment is securely processed through Escrow.com, and website ownership is transferred with full support from our team.
What are the advantages of purchasing an existing website?
Acquiring an established website provides immediate access to revenue and organic traffic. Buyers benefit from existing SEO rankings, a proven business model, and the ability to scale a business without starting from scratch. This approach reduces risk and accelerates ROI compared to building a new site.
What is due diligence, and how does Easy Acquisitions assist?
Due diligence involves verifying the financial and operational integrity of a website before purchase. Our team assists by reviewing revenue documentation, analyzing Google Analytics data, auditing SEO and backlink profiles, and ensuring the domain history is clean and free from penalties. We aim to ensure that each acquisition is secure, profitable, and sustainable for the long term.
Website Valuation: How We Determine Value
Website valuation is based on several core factors. These include monthly revenue and profit, traffic sources (with a preference for organic search traffic), monetization models, and overall industry demand. Businesses generating recurring revenue—such as SaaS platforms or subscription services—typically receive higher valuation multiples. Additionally, websites operating within high-value niches like finance, legal services, or software tend to attract greater buyer interest. Our valuations are always rooted in real market data and current digital asset trends.
Payments and Secure Transactions
What payment methods are accepted?
We prioritize secure transactions. Payments are typically made through Escrow.com, which offers protection for both buyers and sellers. For larger transactions, wire transfers are available, and Payoneer may be used for select international deals. We do not accept PayPal for high-value transactions due to associated fraud risks.
How does Escrow.com protect both parties?
Escrow.com holds the buyer’s funds securely during the transaction. Once the seller transfers the domain and all related assets, the buyer verifies successful receipt. Only after this confirmation are the funds released to the seller. This ensures transparency and protection for all parties involved in the sale.
Domain and Website Transfer Process
How long does the transfer process take?
The time required to complete a transfer varies depending on domain registrars and technical complexity. Domain transfers typically take 24 to 48 hours, while website migration can range from one to seven days. Many sellers also offer a post-sale handover period lasting one to two weeks, during which they assist the buyer with transition support.
Can I retain my current team after selling my website?
Yes. The inclusion of employees, contractors, or support teams can be negotiated during the sale process. Sellers and buyers often reach agreements that preserve operational continuity by retaining key personnel or offering structured post-sale support.
What happens if the website includes custom-built software?
For websites with proprietary code, sellers are required to provide full documentation, hosting credentials, and any relevant APIs. Our team assists in coordinating the technical transfer to ensure that the platform continues operating smoothly. In many cases, sellers agree to provide limited post-sale technical support to facilitate a successful transition.
