Stimator Website Estimator
Stimator is a real time website estimator. Just enter a domain, and it returns its perceived value of the site in USD. CSS Drive for $23k anyone?

wow! I have a device that spews out similar results! - I tried to patent it, but the guy at the Patent Office says it wouldnt be any use since,
EVERYBODY HAS AN ASSHOLE :(
Still, it’s nice to watch the numbers spin around in a Kafkaesque “lets see the deficit race the bailout funds into a headlong rush down the drain of national ruin sort of way” !
Interestingly, and somewhat coincidentally, THIS site is calculated to be worth $23,142 which is pretty close to my own assessment, derived by calculating the times:
*George pulls out his hair taking spam out of the forum,
*Adding additional zeroes to his GoogleAdsense checks, spending the money in advance, then having to return his Big Screen TV to Best Buy because he added the zeroes to front of the amount -not the end
*Eliminating bullshit, irrelevant, spammy news posts,
*Looking for bullshitm irrelevant,spammy posts to replace them with!
*Date Money saved since he didnt take that honey out on Friday but instead spent time with his favorite book - “CSS Drive for Dummies: How 13 megabytes of misc HTML, CSS code, jpegs and PHP can make you RICH (if you live in Bangladesh)
Still, it would be nice to see the knock-offs - “How much is YOUR life worth?” or… “How Long is your weiner??” (for both sites, the math would be simple: for the first site, just spin random numbers for 20 minutes then display $0.00 - if they stuck around that long, they really have no life! and for the weiner site, just divide by two then multiply by race.)
Personally I think a good calculator to create is a Home Value estimator. Enter an address, and the tool returns how much the home is worth.
@georgec
For your information, the “HOME VALUE CALCULATOR” uses the same math functions as my “WEINIS SIZE CALCULATOR!”
Take the last $ amount then divide by 2 :(
Seriously though, I remember running into a Home val calculator like 3 years ago… much different market then!
Mark, typically, has taken a rather obtuse approach, but he’s right. These sort of tools are ridiculous. You can’t judge a website’s value by stats alone.
And George, a home price calculator? Casually putting property valuers out of business in light of a stats driven algorithm)... tut tut.
I can’t quite remember what value I was given for Redswish but it was ridiculous, there’s no way a blog with my traffic and subscriber base is worth what it claims. It reminds me of those magazines when I was a kid that claimed the value of your shiny Charizard pokeman card was worth £100… tosh, absolute tosh.
