Flipping Websites-Is it Profitable?

Flipping websites is a craze that is catching on in the internet world today.Webmasters are making massive bucks flipping sites that are either turnkey or established. A 22 year old sold a banking blog for $15 million recently.
I know a lot of folks are skeptical about the profitability of selling an already profitable site where you are getting a reasonable flow of income from.. Nevertheless, there are plausible reasons to sell your website if you want.The internet is constantly changing so that what is a hit today may become obsolete in a small time interval.

1. Most webmasters have an overload of sites to cater to.Giving attention to some sites means others which may be good, are left unattended to.You have only one life to live.The human mind can be focussed on so much.An overload is certainly what you cant afford, to keep your sanity. Take a  good look at your sites and see which one can be sold off and put it on the auction site. You make good bucks as well.
2. The constantly changing rules of Google-No one is sure how Google  changes its algorithm, but webmasters have been fighting small wars over their fall from a page rank of 6 to a page rank of 3 or 4 over time.Many webmasters have become wiser now .Flipping a website that is profitable may be your answer.This is not to say you must sell off  sites for peanuts.If the price is good, go for it to avoid the saddening experience of search engine manipulation.And as you flip a website, you can always build new ones in other profitable niches as they arise.
3. A not- too -profitable site-There are sites you may have spent time posting good content in and there may be  a good stream of  traffic coming in, but for some reason, you are not getting any appreciable income from it.Instead of allowing such a site to die  a natural death, it will be advisable to put it up for auction.That way, you  make more money than when you were keeping it.

Auction sites like SitePoints.com flips websites from the range of $10000-$50000 depending on the quality of the site. Site brokers handle transactions for start-up(turnkey) and established sites.

Start-up or turnkey sites are fresh sites that require creating a template and putting in at least 10 unique pages of content and listing the site on auction. Conservatively, you can make $100-$150.

Established sites are those with quality content, may have been on the web for long and have a  steady  amount of traffic. Obviously, you make more money with these ones.A fellow blogger got more than 1k flipping a blog.

The ball is in your court.Take a good look at your sites and see which one  you can part  with and give it a try. We will be glad if you post your results here for others to see.

As always, I`m passionately committed to increased profits for you.

God bless you in your endeavors.
