How Would You Go About Selling A Bot?

[ds062692 19]

I have a bot in a very specific niche that I want to sell. I sell a Ubot version, and have a similar Java version for Mac users. The selling site is ranked #1 or #2 in google for the main keywords depending on location. The income generated from the bot follows a wave pattern, has very little sales for parts of the year, while selling very well during other times. I would like to sell it for a couple of reasons, mix of financial/risk aversion, and generally fatigue of having to deal with a certain type of user.

 

I have a couple of questions to people who have sold their bots entirely to someone else, code, site, social media accounts related, basally everything. 

 

Is there a specific place or should I just list it on Flippa?

I know some sites sell for 12 months profit, should I be looking for a similar price?

 

If you have any experience, suggestions, please reply. 

 

Thanks

Just out of curiosity, why sell it instead of keeping it?

If the business makes enough then you may consider hiring a broker. Keep in mind they will take a nice fee but they may also pay for themselves. I had a site once and was in talks with a broker. Instead of selling it on Flippa for 10 months revenue he had a buyer lined up for 30 months revenue... Then Panda come out..

 

If it doesn't make more than a few thousand a month Flippa is probably your best bet or on related forums.
