Value Of Site
Just for my curiosity, if I were to sell my site, how much would you pay for it?
My domain still have a little over 1 year to go, it received around 80 page views and 30 unqiues per day. Including all the content, how much do you think my website is worth?

hmm, no offense but maybe a couple hundred. Personally I would rather build my own site in the same catergory because I think thats more fun.
If I was really into buying I would pay no more then $250.

I would recommend taking the current income you're making from your site per month, then multiply it by 12 or 6 (for 1 year or 1/2 year, respectively), then adding a few more dollars on for the other work you put into it (design, etc.)
Then, see if anyone will buy it for that much. If so, great. If not, try lowering the price until you find a buyer. Keep in mind, though, that I haven't seen many people on the market to buy an already existing site... but you never know!

I really wouldn't pay more than 30 bucks for it, honestly. Doesn't seem like that big of deal.

If you're going to sell your site, there are some domain/website appraisal methods at afternic.com

I could never imagine myself buying someone's site! wow it actually happens?
yeecchh it'd be too time-consuming to parse through all the html manually and figgring out what exactly has been coded, just to change stuff and/or upgrade/add to the site.
just my 2 cents.

Yep, people buy sites just like they buy companies. It happens quite often actually; change of ownership. Anyway, I agree with Brians' evaluation model.
