I’m always wary of a site that claims a large amount of AdSense monetization without a correspondingly large amount of traffic. For all I know the site owner could have gotten his friends to click on ads for a couple months before he puts it up for sale.

Perhaps I am not making enough money to have people interested in buying my site but I can say that right now I would not sell for a 100,000 because my website it’s my life.

Almost all the sites that sell on Flippa seem to be using wordpress. I’ve tried to learn it, but it seems confusing. I’ve always created simple sites using only html & css. I’ve had no problem gaining traffic and making profit thru adsense & other affiliates. But I don’t know if any of my sites would sel on Flippa, since I don’t have them on wordpress & don’t even use any kind of php etc.

Excellent tips – I am trying to develop my first .co domain and its a journey. I do have adsense and am using a theme at the moment. I dont make that much with adsense but am trying to spread the word of the .co domain.
These are some great tips and if i ever develop a site that gets good traffic – I will make sure to monetize that first before selling it!

I’m interested in knowing the views of buyers who put stress on adsense monetization. What do they think of a site which is monetized by other ad networks than adsense ? Do they give less value to such sites ?

Sometimes getting a lot of traffic seems to be an uphill battle but I seem to be doing pretty well lately. The only problem though is that I don’t get much comments. People comment on my facebook page instead. How can I avoid this? I would also like to make some online friends if ever any are up for the taking

I agree, very big sites probably should go with a longer auction length.

Awesome.. Very awesome tips Daniel. I would like to highlight no 7 tip – Dont Hype Your Description. Definitely, this is a bad strategy most Flippa seller have done. Who want to belive someone let his/him website or blog 5 figure earning go just for penny? Lol.. Don’t do it! Ever..

I just sold my first site on Flippa about 2 months ago and the most significant factor that seemed to keep the price from going higher was the amount of effort needed to keep the site going and making money. I had done all of the work on the site myself, but almost every potential buyer was not able to do the work and was interested in outsourcing, which of course means less profit and a lower bid as a result. So in addition to your tips in this post I would add that you should consider how you can make the maintenance of the site as hands free as possible to ease concerns of some potential buyers. For example, I could have put more effort into finding freelance writers ahead of time, which could have shown a more stable transition plan.

Thanks for the tips Daniel, I’ve been thinking of selling one of my blogs. Not because I don’t have interest anymore but I’d like to use the sale as a starting point on larger projects.

Nice Post Daniel. Website flipping is another way of earning nice income. You just have to make sure that it gets a lot of traffic and making decent revenues as well. But I can’t imagine myself selling a successful website, maybe I’ll keep it and build another website to create several income streams. I’ll probably sell a website if I have like 10 websites and i can’t manage the other websites anymore.

By: Daniel Scoccoon

Daniel Scoccoon — Tue, 15 Jun 2010 07:32:00 +0000

There are several reasons. Maybe you need to the money to start another project. Maybe you have too many sites and need to get rid of some to have time to manage the others.
