Journey to $1k/month Selling Websites

Real quick..

I just posted 2 more sites for sale, so I have posted a total of 5 sites for sale - all different niches. Going to find out which niches sell the best and then focus on them a bit more.. so far I have had the best luck with selling travel sites.
 
Hey there,
I can help you with this business model, if you are ready to share with you my domain, then we can work together
Send me PM
 
Last week I was planning to start exactly the same thing you do. I will set everything under a plan this weekend to get going.
I'm good at finding niches, do keyword research, seo and setup everything. I'm really bad at producing my own content, English is not my native language so I'll see
how I can manage outsourcing without ruining my profits.

Wish you good luck man!
 
I think you're undervaluing your services way too low. You could make that a month off of one website in my opinion if you tweak your methods a little. According to what your saying in your OP, you should be banking hard.

Hmm... I keep hearing this from you guys, so I'm gonna have to rethink this plan. I have to continue doing what I'm doing now to get some income, as I have bills that are way past due and that's not the kind of person I am. Once I get my finances straight I think I will implement a more advanced plan, with higher priced sites. Thanks for the input!
 
$50 for 10 HQ articles and a custom made site? You nuts? Why sell so low... Do some nice keyword research and blast them off at like $200 a pop.

I would suggest scrapping the idea for mass website, open up a BST here and offer your services to make a niche website for people. Say you do everything, when you get a sale send them a list of url's they can choose the site they want from it.

Make about 10 of them, open shop, give some discount for reviews, and start selling. I think it will be just as easy to sell 5 a month at $200 then it will be to sell 20 at $50...
 
How quick are you able to sell these sites? I think I found some of your sites and I am in a similar financial situation to you. I have 3 amazon sites that I am thinking about flipping then using that money to build more.

Usually within 3-5 days - otherwise I post different sites for sale and work on making the failed sites more appealing to buyers.

I know, $50 for 10 hq articles and a custom site!?! lol but really, its less then 5 hours of work, so at a normal job I'd still be making more than $10/hour, which is fine with me, since I can work as many hours as I need to get $$.

But really, this is just how I plan on starting.. I will sell higher priced sites soon.
 
Sold one and made an extra $100 today. Need $700 more and I'm good - kind of shitty that I'm behind schedule but I think I can still make it this month. Posted a couple more sites tonight and I'm gonna have more to post tomorrow, so I'm catching up quick. :cool:

Nice. You seem determined and have a good plan worked out. Just be careful to not burn out, you've set a hell of a pace to keep up with if you intend to do it long term. Keep it up man, I'll be following your progress!
 
wow sound like a good plan to me, an easy cash to pay up the bill i am in same financial situation but not as bad as yours. so what i ll do is create 1 website /month with proper keyword research and seo + will do social sharing for half month including 2 tier link building then i ll sell it for few more extra cash.
P.s. have to implement this plan fast as PR update coming soon and this will add up few buck.
 
Best of luck mate have a safe journey.
cheers
 
Hi dbwebdesign,

need little help would you mind sharing with us how you do your keyword research for particular niche
Hello BHW,

I have recently found myself in a bad financial situation and had to sell off many of my domains and websites for lower prices than I wanted to. I found out that I kind of like selling websites, and so I thought about flipping websites for a long time now. I have all the skills required to build a great website within 1-2 days. Basically, I will be creating WordPress websites with 10 high quality posts written by me, a native English speaker. I have come up with a solid plan to make about $1k a month building and selling websites. I plan on recruiting a team of people to help me expand and make even more $$$ so this will be a fun journey for sure.

I can create logos, design websites, code websites, write and do SEO. I have great social media skills and really know how to build a following. I don't know how much social media I will incorporate in this journey, but we will see.

I will be buying EMD's and other great domains, installing WP, customizing a theme with unique logo, and then finally posting a lot of great content,. In some cases, I will create a completely unique WP theme, but not for the sites that I will selling for cheap. Also, I will be using an SEO plugin to optimize every post on the site. I have already sold about 12 websites in the past month and it has helped me out a lot financially. Hopefully, I can make this happen and exceed $1k/month :D

Each site will sell anywhere from $20-$50, and I will be setting up 2-3 a day. I truly think I am selling sites with potential, as the content I provide the buyer with is very high quality. So, when I come up with my team of people with similar skills as me, I will make sure they create websites with the same high quality if not greater. I'm all about quality, but I know it's very hard to sell a website for more than $50 if its brand new.

This log is to keep me motivated, as it seems to work for many people.

I have 5 domains ready so I can start making some websites. I won't say the domain, but here is my to-do list with due dates.

  • Pet Niche - July 16
  • Pet Niche - July 16
  • Travel Niche- July 16
  • Gaming Niche- July 16
  • Astral Projection Niche- July 16

Since I have a bunch of college work due over the weekend I can't focus on building the websites as much as I'd like to. But, this will be a good start and then my goal is to create at least 2 websites per day, 5 days a week. Over time I will increase the amount I create, and find a partner to work with me as needed. Eventually, building a team as mentioned above. I will start one 'large project' on the side as I sell these quick startup sites. The large project is something that will hopefully make me a couple hundred bucks, or even thousands in the future.

This is because I need instant cash, yet I want to gaurantee a raise in the future, ya know?
 
Hi dbwebdesign,

need little help would you mind sharing with us how you do your keyword research for particular niche

I look at the search results. I pick a broad niche and narrow it down, maybe I'm not as analytical as I should be. However, some sites I offer I will be selling almost as a business - I will explain in detail later.

My first sites sold were travel - even though they were set up and looked done it was almost like selling a business. From booking.com referall money to paid ads from local businesses, I inform the customer on how I would run the business/site - which makes the sale even more appealing as they feel like they are truly buying something with potential. Not some junk seller that that claims you buy it and you make money from ads instantly.. they know its a startup site, a work in progress. Sure, I provide the site with some content, but really, these days you need a lot of content.

I basically use Google keyword tool and perform some searches myself to see some good topics that won't be too hard to rank for.

I don't really have time to give much of an update but I wanted to respond to the question..

Anyways, right now I am not selling anything that fantastic, but I'm in the process of building some really awesome websites. I can't wait to put them up for sale! I sold one today, which wasn't much - im only another $50 up on my goal. Confidence is draining due to college stress, so I'll be working on time management skills and getting organized.
 
Have cell phone bills due later this month that are rolled over from last month so that's 200 I need. BY tomorrow I need 200 for electric bill or I lose my deposit.

Fucking wonderful.

Maybe this will be an epic fail on my end, maybe I should do something else.. maybe I should just freelance for quicker money. :( w.e the case, right now I feel scrwed.
