IMO whether is good for the owner to sell or not is depend on the knowledge about what she know about blog asset values couple with the reason she wanted to sell it. if we have those two information then we know how to evaluate whether she make the right decision or not. Anyway whether it is right or not to sell i believe if she can make the blog famous she could do that again. with USD15000 in hand she could make it even faster then the first one. so all the best to her.

There’ve been a lot of public blog sales lately, especially since the latest Google slap it seems, and while some of the dollar amounts may sound decent on first glance Court explores whether the sellers really got the better end of the deals or not.

I've had numerous offers from people wanting to buy my blogs and websites, and I've yet to sell one, even a site I haven't worked on in a year or more. Why? 1. The site still makes me at least some money from Adsense or affiliate programs 2. I may want to go back and work on the site some day, and it's a whole lot easier getting an established domain with existing links kickstarted than a brand new site. Also, the 10 months earnings people get is kind of ridiculous if you have a site where you know the income isn't going to go anywhere. Why sell a site that makes me $2,500 a month for a measly $25K? Especially given the site will be making even more 10 months into the future if you know what you're doing. Anyway, if you're burned out on your blog and want to sell, you might just think about hiring someone to post for a while. Or hire someone to write the articles you submit for links or whatever. Do what you have to do to keep it fun, but don't just sell a blog to make a quick buck. Hold for the long term and eventually 15k will be something to sneeze at. ~annie Agree.
