Website/Domain Selling

Blog · 10-13-2009, 07:01 PM

Hey guys, I happen to own a couple domains and have made some simple websites for personal use over the last couple years. As it turns out one of these sites temporarily became a viral phenomenon. This occurred a couple months ago and the traffic has tapered off for the most part now, but as a result of so many incoming links from other sites it managed to score a Google Page Rank of 6. This seems like a pretty decent Page Rank to me, so I guess my question is two fold:

Does this site have any value? Although the traffic has tapered off from the initial surge, its page rank is good and it ranks extremely well in Google for related searches.

If it is worthwhile to attempt to sell the domain/site what is the best way to go about it? I've attempted to do some research, but searches on the topic seem to bring up a lot of spam, and since I am not that familiar with web development or domain trading I am not really sure which sources to trust. The services that do seem legit (GoDaddy, Sedo) only seem to allow me to place the domain at auction without being able to advertise its main selling points (PageRank, Top in Search Results).

Any advice from individuals with knowledge of this field would be appreciated as it is not an area I know very much about it.

Thanks

Shoot me a PM with more information on the site... I might be able to help. I know some places and have sold sites/domains before.
