Saw this at another site. I have recently become interesting in buying, fixing up, and selling sites for a profit. Basically if you know some good seo techniques, you can buy sites cheaply, optimize them and resell them for 2-3 times what you paid after a few months. Here are the tips. Feel free to leave feedback or add to the list:
6 Tips On Flipping Websites For Profit
Tip #1: Choosing a Niche
It’s important that when flipping your website, that it’s within a niche that has a market for growth. Most people will only buy websites if the niche is in a market that can generate traffic and have products available to be promoted within the niche.
Tip #2: Traffic Generation
Always ensure that before you flip your website that it is actually generating traffic. No one wants to buy a website with no traffic; therefore before even attempting to flip a website, ensure the site is already generating solid traffic.
Tip #3: Income Generation
Another factor before flipping is to show that the website is already generating income. People prefer to purchase a website while it’s on the rise, rather than when it’s on the decline. In most cases flips are done quickly, therefore this should not be a problem. Forecasting income based on the site’s income will give the user a conservative estimation of what the site could make in the future, and how long it will take to regain their investment.
Tip #4: Powerful Presentation
Above all else, you need to present your sales thread with as much information as possible and present it, in an easy to follow manner. This is important, as you want to limit the number of questions or queries so that you can receive qualified bids.
Tip #5: Proof Of Income
Showing proof of income is an important factor in flipping websites. You can say your site is making money, but people will require proof before making a formal bid on your site. Therefore it’s important to have screenshots ready to provide as proof that you are making the money as listed on the sales thread.
Tip #6: Proof Stats
As with the income proof, you’ll also need to provide proof that you are receiving the traffic as listed. Traffic is a key element to deciding whether or not a buyer will make a bid on your website. To limit traffic related questions such as traffic referrals, search engine referrals etc, it’s best to provide proof of your traffic claims. By doing this it will show you are serious about having this site sold but providing all the information as needed.
