What’s Inside?

Site Flipping Demystified

We begin the journey by taking you on a guided tour of the evolution of the web property marketplace. We start in the days before the bubble burst, and walk through the changes the online property landscape has seen since then. You’ll also be introduced to some of the broad concepts involved in flipping web sites for profit—concepts we’ll use through the rest of the book.

Buying a Site

Some say that finding a good site to flip is like finding a needle in a haystack. In this section, we show you how, with the right tools, clever research, and effective evaluation, that haystack isn’t as big as it may seem. We’ll discuss where to look for sites to purchase, how to assess their profit potential, how to value them, negotiating with the seller, and transacting the deal.

Adding Value

Now that you’ve bought your site, it’s time to roll up those sleeves, open the toolbox, and get your hands dirty. While we can’t discuss every possible way that you could add value to your site, we will step through the key elements that, when improved, can send the value of your site through the roof.

Selling a Site

The renovations are finished, and it’s time to put up the for-sale sign. Just like the physical real estate market, there’s plethora of ways to take your site to market. In this chapter, we’ll explore the pros and cons of each option, and reveal some of the techniques you can use to make sure your site sells for the top dollar.

This handy reference list summarizes the good and bad points of the sites, tools, and other resources we’ve mentioned in the chapter, to make it easy for you to find your way around the busy site-flipping market
