Many people are making money online simply by flipping websites. Some people earn just a little extra pocket money by flipping sites as a hobby and others earn a full time inome by flipping websites full time. Whether you do this as a hobby or as a business will determine how much income you will make. If you plan to use site flipping as an income source then you must be prepared to put the work into it. Unfortunately too many people are looking for a get rich quick program that will make them an income without them needing to do any work. The sooner you realise that such programs just don’t exist then the sooner you can start putting some work into a real business opportunity and start making some real income. The amount of effort that you put into your site flipping business will be reflected in the income that you make. Having said that you will also want to use your time wisely as if you spend too much time on creating one website then the profits you make may not be sufficient to cover the time spent on it. Virtual real estate is a bit like physical real estate, if you are building or buying cheap and renovating and then selling for a profit, you don’t want to over capitalise. Once you become experienced with creating your websites you will find that the time spent will be less as you become more efficient. It is possible to create a website in an hour or so and still make a good profit from it. To maximise your ‘hourly’ income rate, you need to be efficient and get into a routine that will have you creating websites fast. The amount of time you spend on one website will vary depending on what type of websites you decide to create for your site flipping business. Your choice doesn’t have to be exclusive to one type of website, there are many site flippers that create a variety of websites to flip. Some types of websites will require more time spent on them and you should aim to sell these sites for a higher price. There is not one ‘right’ type of site for flipping and some site flippers will prefer quick affiliate sites while others will prefer to create blogs to flip. Other flippers will go for longer term projects and have the sites earning an income before flipping them, leading to a much bigger selling price. Creating quick affiliate sites is a great place to start for anyone that is new to site flipping and once you have mastered the art of creating and selling affiliate sites, then move on to other types of websites. Soon you will find which type of site you prefer to create and which type pays off the best for you. The main thing to remember is that to make a good income with site flipping you must be required to put in the effort and trust me, those efforts will be greatly rewarded.

There is a saying that says “buy low and sell high”. Have you ever heard of it? Well, the old adage is especially true in buying and selling websites. Let’s face it, there are so many people out there who can build a web site. Most skilled web developers can put up a website that looks great and is SEO friendly in about 20 minutes. How do they do this? Believe it or not, who cares? They build great websites and sell them for dirt cheap because they don’t know how to get the site profitable and sell it for big bucks. How are you going to to it? I am glad you asked. Pull up a chair and let’s get started.

Finding a site is not too hard if you know what you are looking for. If you go to SitePoint’s marketplace, look around at completed auctions. Make a list of the winners and selling points. You will have a list of website topics that are constantly raking in the cash. Now take your list over to some webmaster forums. One such forum is Digital Point. You will see tons of sites for dirt cheap. Look for those that match your “hot topics” list. Before you buy the site, we’ll go into some criteria for making a selection.

First off, does the seller have a good reputation? Look for sellers with lots of positive feedback. This won’t guarantee the quality, but it helps a lot. Look at the domain name. Domains that are at least 6 months old are desirable and I try to buy only .com domain web sites. Look at the design and content. If the content is readable, that should be good enough. For your first flip, look for something under $100.

Once the site is yours, fix all the grammar and spelling errors, fix formatting and whatever looks bad. Now, go and promote the site and get traffic and income will follow if you have great offers. You could also use Adsense to get money for surfer’s clicks.

Once the site has traffic and income, you are ready to sell for a nice profit over at SitePoint. Simply repeat the process and build your business from there.

You probably already know that you can make money online by creating a website and monetizing it with affiliate advertising, but did you know you can also make big money online by building and flipping websites? On the internet a website that is making money is otherwise known as ‘Virtual Real Estate’ and as such it’s an asset because it gives people a financial return. Often this return is recurring on a monthly basis.

Because there are investors and webmasters out there looking to snap up these sites without having to do all the work of building and promoting them, they are prepared to pay you very well if your site has a proven track record of earnings. Sure, you can create a site and flip it with no earnings whatsoever, but you will make far, far more by flipping websites you have created and turned into an income producing asset.

Best of all this is not difficult to do. Anyone looking to make money online can do this quickly and easily even if they are entering this business as a complete beginner. It doesn’t cost very much to get started either. All you will need is hosting and a domain. The rest can be done for free and there’s no need to invest in anything else until you’ve successfully built and flipped websites for profit.

You are probably wondering how much you can make by building websites and flipping them. Well, there are ways of accurately predicting these returns which I detail in my special report, but essentially there is no specific limit. However, it is realistic and achievable to make anything between $300 and $1800 per flip by following a formula I use to accurately predict how much I can cash out for.

This is a very exciting business to get involved in both for fun and for real money. You can then use the capital you have realised from your site selling to fund further projects and even treat yourself to that well deserved holiday you’ve been promising yourself.

Need extra income? Well flipping sites can put plenty of cash in your pockets.  The best thing about flipping websites is that you don’t need to be a guru or a rocket scientist to flip sites for profit.  Anyone can do it, even a newb.  There’s various ways to flip sites for profit.  You can either start a site from scratch or buy an already running website that is under performing.  Successful website owners that flip sites for a living boasts a five figure earning.  A lot of people are surprised when they hear about these kind of earnings but it’s true.  Most sites are sold for under a $100 so how do they make a five figure earning? Because the pros know how to set sites up very quickly and they know how to sell a site at a much higher price than most people. The more they create and sell, the more they earn.

When you want to make money flipping websites or get into blog flipping, you must do a lot of research.  You first have to choose a niche.  This is very important because a lot of buyers will only buy a website if its in a market that can generate traffic.  Next you have to choose a good relevant domain name. The domain name is important because you want it to be relevant to your website topic.  Get a nice Template.  Then fill it up with quality content and monetize the site.

Now you have to simply sell your site.  You can sell your site on Ebay, Digitalpoint forums, Warrior forum, Sitepoint.  To sell your site at a higher price, add more value to it by getting a high page rank.  Make sure you set a good price for your site.  Setting your price too high, buyers won’t even give you a second look.  Setting it too low, buyers will thing your a scammer.  Please use these guidelines when you want to make money flipping sites.

So, what’s all the buzz about website flipping…do people really make sizeable returns by taking a pokey, battered old website and reselling it?

The answer is yes they do – but as with everything in online biz that is worthwhile, it takes a level of technical skill, experience and a little business savvy to reach the pinnacles that the pro’s have. However, if you do manage it, the sky is the limit. We’re in the internet era just now – and websites are the houses, sparkling office skyscrapers and (sadly) shanty towns of the internet world. Internet real estate (as much as I dislike that term) is here to stay and will continue to create millionaires in the months, years and decades to come.

   The Evolution Of The Internet – From The Dot Com Boom And Bust To Today’s Cool Tools For Site Creation

A decade or so ago, websites were perceived much like air travel in the fifties – they were really reserved for the rich and/or famous. In fact, prior to the dot com boom in the earlier years of this decade, investment banks and the clueless managers who ran them would almost back any old start-up company as long as it had a dot com presence. Even (or should I say especially) if the business model made no sense, was seemingly written by a child and had serious flaws.

During the dotcom boom (while I was wrapping up my banking career), I saw companies given the green light for investment that I’m quite sure no-one reading this would have backed – for example Pets.com who were given so much financial backing that they splurged on a multi-million dollar superbowl ad, bought an inflatable balloon slot for the Macy’s parade and squandered the rest of it’s money in all sorts of idiotic ways.  A few months later, someone in management took off their dunce cap long enough to realise that actually, products like flea lotion and kitty litter have a pretty low mark-up and that because they took about 4 days to deliver goods, people would rather walk five minutes to their local pet shop to buy what they needed. The company promptly folded, after losing investors a boatload of cash.

Today, it’s a different story – the website industry is booming and the beautiful thing is that the internet has evolved so that the smarter but smaller guy and gal have a competitive advantage in having a website business over the big guns. While website/blog design still requires technical aptitude, we have more tools, software and resources to be able to put out good looking websites and blogs – one’s that can stand up proudly against anything that a Fortune 500 company can whip up.

Of course, an alternative to building sites to resell is flipping them – buying established sites at a low fee, doing them up, and then reselling them for a markup. In some ways it’s a lot like real estate investment. That’s what we’ll look at next…

  So, What Sort Of Things Do You Need To Know About Before Flipping Websites?

The answer is, a lot. You would not enter the world of site flipping under-prepared any more than you would get into the real estate investment industry without a sound understanding of how it all works (unless possibly you’re pets.com). To get into website flipping, you’ll need to understand how the industry works. You need to set out a clear plan on how much you expect to yield through your site flipping efforts, and where to pick-up websites on the cheap (and where to resell them).

Make a start – learn about website flipping and what skills and knowledge you need to do it to earn a living. Then give it a go – you may be surprised at what you can achieve.

Since I started flipping websites I have met other Stay At Home Mums who are also now making a nice income online by site flipping.  Site flipping is the latest craze in Internet Marketing and is a reasonably easy way to earn some cash.

The main steps in site flipping are:

* Choose a niche
* Choose and purchase a domain name

* List the website for sale
* Collect payment and transfer the site

For anyone new to the site flipping industry then those steps probably sound like a nightmare but they really are quite easy if you get a good tutorial that shows you step by step how to do it all.

The Site-Biz Site Flipping manual is one such tutorial that shows you every single step that you need to know and also includes graphic images of each step making it very easy for anyone to follow – even the newest of newbies will be able to follow the steps outlined in this manual.

The secret to being successful at site building is to be confident in yourself, be determined to make it work and to offer good quality and great looking websites.  Armed with these few things and you can build yourself a site flipping empire earning you an amazing income.

Once you have mastered creating and selling basic affiliate sites you can then move on to perhaps creating and flipping blogs.  Blog flipping requires a little more time to put a site together but can offer you a bit of variety if you do feel like you want more than just an affiliate site flip.  The more variety you have in your websites the bigger range of potential customers you will appeal to.

However, if you are happy with offering just one type of site for sale, you can still have a great income.  In fact I earn over $1000 weekly simply be creating and selling affiliate websites.  These sites are easy to create, and once you have created a couple and get to know what you are doing, you can create an affiliate site in less than an hour.  If you spend 3 or 4 hours a day you can create 3 or 4 sites a day and that will bring you an incredible income.
