Are you sitting down?
Because you probably won't like to hear this!
The going rate for a website is 3-4 times annual revenue, I know because I've had a few offers that I've turned down for revisesociology.com over the years (may as well get in another link pointing there!)
So I can't imagine an account like this would be any different.
At the top level of your current estimated income that's $50 a month, $600 a year, so $2400 would probably be about right.
That's no doubt quite a lot less that you'd like!
Judging by the total earnings, you used to earn a lot more, had you sold earlier I'm guessing you could have got 5 figures for it. TBH I'm not sure how far back buyers go when calculating income!
I don't think the market rate reflects the value of something like this, hold onto it and enjoy the passive returns!

Yeah, I earned more when I was an active seller. I haven't been active for about 3 years and it still generates those numbers passively. I actually figured it would be something like that, I've heard something similar in the past.
I guess the only way I could, potentially, get more for it is by selling it to someone already on the same marketplace. An active seller who aren't able to reach the same user level as my account.. Maybe.
Well, figured I'd ask. I got an offer for it a long time ago, probably a year or something like that.. Perhaps even 2 years, I can't remember.. But they offered me $500, so I declined immediately.
That being said, I guess most people would only look at the current income and come up with a price based on those numbers rather than offering me something more for the "history" (or potential) of the account?

And I think it's unlikely that people would go back more than a year when working out passive income, these things can change rapidly given the competition, and I guess that's something which would suppress prices, they're quite risky investments.
Also I'm talking about the value of a blog, rather than something more niche and purely about sales income, could be two different markets!

Thanks, I appreciate it. :)

I'm not an expert in the value of such things, $500 sounds like a bargain though!
