[consulting] Selling a Drupal website / business

[Jerad Bitner]

Check out sitepoint.com - I don't know a whole lot about it myself but a
friend of mine was in a business that lived and died by using this site for
buying and selling websites. I think they give you tools to evaluate the
worth and such based on metrics as well.
