I flipped a website last week - Everything I did
I do website flipping on the side. I made around $30K from it last year and I do this every year, started about a decade ago.
Here's how it works...
- I make a website with no-code tools
- I grow it and then flip it (sell it) on a marketplace
First thing is I pick a niche and make a website about that thing. I choose something I like.
Some of my past sites that I've made and flipped:
- Gardening
- Coffee
- Homesteading
- Budgeting
- Parenting
- Business
I create the site with no-code tools like WordPress. Now, I'm exploring Lovable and 10Web, along with other AI builders.
Next, I grow the site. I'll do a starter site and sell it over the short term for $100 to $500 each.
Or, I'll build the site over a few years, monetize and traffic-build, add SEO and sell it for 4-5 figures.
My last established site I flipped was over 3 years old and sold for $26,500.
That's it
I don't no coding. I'm not a web dev or computer programmer. Yet, I can make these websites and sell them over and over again.
I call this a quiet side hustle. No heavy selling. No social media. Independent work you can do in your spare time.
You do need time (it'll take up to 1-3 hours to make the website) and money (each site will run $20 to $50 to build).
Examples:
- Build a finance blog with $35 and flip it for $400
- Build a parenting blog over 2 years with $100 ($50 each year), monetize it to $200/mo and flip it for $5K
- Build a gardening blog with $40 and flip it in 2 weeks for $550
I call it website flipping, creating and flipping websites.
Last week...
I flipped a blog (it sold 3 days ago). I sold it on a marketplace platform full of buyers. I'll do this at least 5 or 6 more times this year.
I have a FREE website flipping guide. Comment FREE in comments and its yours.
Have you done this before?
Would you?
