Deadspin Valued at Over $16 Million

How much is your sports blog worth? Did it make the top 100? Read this to find out.

I am basing the valuations off DN Scoop, a website that values websites based on links, PR, traffic rank, and other factors. The general valuation for a website on sale is 10-20 times monthly earnings. That can vary based on domain name, branding exposure, etc, but the valuations should be somewhat accurate.

The site only works for entire domains, so blogs hosted on another domain like the Fanhouse won’t qualify. The reason is, this program will look into all links going to the entire AOL domain, not just the sports blog.

Here are the top 100:
