Ok, I just thought I’d pop in and give an update on the progress of my site flipping.  The last couple of days I have been concentrating on my Guide To Dog Training website.  I have changed it around a bit and added a clickbank product and some Amazon widgets. 

I have also written and added about six articles to the site which you can view at http://www.guidetodogtraining.com/articles  so I am mainly concentrating on adding content to the site to build it up and I will also start writing some articles to submit to article directories.

My plan is to add about 30 articles to the actual site and maybe about 15 articles to article directories.  At that time I will review how the site is going in way of how much traffic it is receiving and how much if any income it is making.  If I think it is doing well enough then I will place it up for sale, if it isn’t doing well enough at that stage then I will continue to add content and do some more article marketing.

So that is my progress for the moment, you can check out the site at www.guidetodogtraining.com

 

I did it again, I went and bought another website with the intent of changing it and adding to it and then selling it at a higher price. This time it is a dog training site at http://www.guidetodogtraining.com  which I picked up for $55.

My biggest problem with these sites is that some of them come with CSS and I really hate using CSS, not very good with it. This one and the Hoodia one both came with CSS so I ended up getting rid of it and changing the pages. I have kept the background and header for the dog training site but just used tables instead of CSS.

With the Hoodia site I changed the header and background as I wasn’t all that keen on the colors but kept all the content as it had quite good content.

Now I just need to stop buying websites and concentrate on getting these three or four that I already have up and running and ready to be sold. Its really just a matter now of adding more content to them to build them up a bit and do some article marketing to drive some traffic to them.

So off I go to work and I’ll keep you updated on my progress.

I enjoyed selling my last site and I have decided to do a bit more of website flipping. So I have been lurking around at Digital Point forum and have come across a couple of websites up for sale.

The first site was at www.fx-gate.com  which had a BIN (buy it now) price of just $25 so I grabbed it. This is a blog about the forex trading market. I have to admit the posts on the blog I think have come from article directories, but have been done correctly in that they have left the resource links at the end of the articles.

So far I have changed the theme of this blog and added some products to it and now I plan on adding a heap more content, which will be unique content, as well as writing articles to submit to article directories. Once I build up some good traffic then I will sell the blog on Site Point hopefully for a profit.

The second site I came across was www.hoodia-pills.net  and since the site I just sold for $500 was a Hoodia site I thought I’d make an offer on this one. This one had a BIN of $150 which after a couple of days was lowered to $90 - this was when I saw it, so I sent a message to the seller offering him $80 for the site which he accepted.

I straight away changed the design of the site and added some banners and links to the Hoodia product that I was promoting through the last site. I am undecided whether to add a blog to this domain or to just keep adding to the site. I am thinking I might just add to the site and see how that goes. I will also add a heap of articles to article directories to bring traffic to the site.

So that is where I am at with my site flipping. I am really enjoying this site flipping business so I really hope that it continues to be profitable.

I was extremely happy this morning when I turned on my laptop to find that I had sold my first website that I put up for auction. I definately didn’t expect it to be sold so quickly as it still had almost 6 days left on the auction, but the buyer purchased it with the ‘buy it now’ option, so I got the full price that I was asking.

It was a reasonably new site and it sold for $500 which I was extremely happy about. Now I am very motivated to get craking with more sites and start making more sales. It wasn’t a hard site to set up and the most time consuming part was probably that I wrote over 30 articles and submitted them all to article directories. It paid off though so I’m happy.

I have 2 other websites that I’ve started working on and I am quite keen to get on with them now. Website flipping is something that I have considered quite a few times but never really did anything about it until my friend Rachel convinced me to give it a go.

Thanks Rachel

Take care
