Site Flipping For Writers

August 9th 2009 10:54




SITE FLIPPING IS EASIER THAN WHATEVER THE HELL THIS WOMAN IS DOING!!!



Site Flipping....

Many writers know this term but don't realize they can make a killing doing it themselves.

You know those 10-20 article gigs you are doing for people? A lot of those articles go onto some lame site that will never make any sustainable amount of money and those sites will simply die off after the owner gets sick of paying for hosting while making NO sales on whatever crap they are trying to sell.


So, I've done my homework and yes, I've started to flip a site or two just to see what happens and how the process works. The thing is, we already have a leg up on the competition. We don't have to outsource anything at all! We write our own content, write it good, and write it fast.

"Yes, Robert, so what the hell are you trying to say?"

Let me break this down in an easy to follow and easy to repeat formula.

1. Pick a Niche that isn't too competitive. Sounds easy but most people will fail right here. Use the free Google keyword tool Really Long Link on this one. If you want to sell "monkey chow" you probably won't have a lot of competition. That particular term has around 2000 searches per month believe it or not. Choose something with around 20,000 searches in quotes for this method to really pay out.

2. Get a domain that is relevant to your term like www.buymonkeychownow.com or something. Pay for 3 months of hosting to accompany your new domain. Use Godaddy. It's the best for transferring ownership.


3. Write up 10-20 pages of great content on your new niche site. Don't make it a bland review piece of garbage like everyone else does. Have a couple pages of interesting stories to accompany 10-15 pages of thorough reviews with pictures and Amazon links or whatever affiliate thing you prefer.

4. DO NOT ADD ADSENSE YET.

5. For the next 2 months, your ONLY job is to religiously build backlinks to that site. Use every free blog on earth, use every article directory you can find. Create Squidoo lenses, hubpages, wordpress blogs, whatever. Don't link them all to your site directly but instead spread the links around. Link to the blogs, link to the ezinearticles, link the lenses to the blogs, link the blogs to your site. Make it like a gigantic messed up family tree from hell. Post in forums related to your niche. Yes, there are plenty of monkey forums for this example.

6. On day 1 of the third month, it's time for Adsense. Put the Adsense code into your site somewhere not too intrusive but definitely where it's noticeable.

Keep promoting this site. It's been a boring as hell 2 months and you have one more left to go.

THE END- It's been 3 months, with 1 month of Adsense running right? Now what? Now, you should be getting a decent amount of Adsense clicks per day. Maybe as much as $5-10 depending on the linking.

Get your butt directly to any website for sale site and put up an ad for your site. If your site makes $5/day in Adsense at this very moment, that's potentially over $1800/year. WIll it make you this much? No. Should you keep it and try? NO!!!

Sell that site for $1000 or best offer. You'll see how ads are set up on website for sale sites. Copy that format for your own.

I know, it sounds too easy to possibly work doesn't it? Well, it damn well DOES work. The best part is, we write it all ourselves so we have nothing to lose but time. If you know how backlinking and SEO works (and you should), you already have a much better shot than anyone else. Make your site with a free template if you don't like to build sites.

I'm not kidding here folks. This method is tested, proven, and will absolutely make you $1000 or more every 3 months. Try it once. You'll like it. If you feel like you have the time to do more than 1 site every 3 months, the sky's the limit. If you can promote 10 sites simultaneously, that's a nice $10000 every 3 months or so. Space them out right and you could make thousands each month forever.

"But Robert, wouldn't I make a fortune keeping all those sites?"

No. You can NOT keep up with them. To keep them ranking high on Google you have to keep adding content, and promoting them. I can barely do that with 2 sites so imagine how terrible it would be for say, 30 sites.

Build em, promote em, flip em.

Take a look at any website that buys/sells websites and see what those guys are doing. You don't have to get too fancy but that's what a lot of people do.

Make a plan, stick with it, and I guarantee in 3 months, you have $1000 in your account with about $60 to start it up and a bit of time.

I have read about this before, I've just always been a little afraid to try it. Maybe I'll give one a go during these winter months though.

Nice step-by-step guides here, mate. I think it would be work, as long as we have the faith on it!

Nice post. Very helpful for anyone that would be willing to try this. It sounds like a good idea as long as people would want to buy the sites for that much money.

Yo Robert. Long time no talky. I'm running a new writing website too and included you in the blogroll on the main page. Just thought I'd let you know...you've been a great help in the past and I think others should know about your kickbutt awesome blog.
