Site Flipping

Put this in the “why didn’t I think of that” category. I’ve read a lot about people that flip houses but somehow never made the leap to websites. Today I read an article on Site Flipping and thought it’s a pretty good idea.

The gist is that you either buy or create for cheap a website and then resell that website for a profit. The concept is easy; the success will be in the execution.

Looking at eBay sales, established sites typically are selling at 1000 – 3000 dollars. It’s hard to define what “established” means but if it’s getting traffic and some advertising revenue, you’re in good shape.

New sites appear to go for less than 300 bucks. If you’re efficient and can generate a good looking site with content for less than 100 dollars, you might be able to flip for a profit. Keep looking around for great ideas; the next one might be staring you right in the face.

It again goes to show that you can take what seems to be a “silly” idea or maybe even a dream and turn it into a profitable reality.
