Make $100K a Year Flipping Domains and Websites

At first $100,000 a year might sound like a lofty goal for selling domains and websites, but it’s really not. Some of the best domains, after all, bring millions of dollars apiece. While it’s rather rare to find domains that valuable that are available, it’s not unreasonable to expect to get a few thousand for a solid domain.

If you break it down, $100,000 a year translates to $8,333 a month or $2,083 a week. That might be a little much to expect when you’re first getting started, but it is well within reach once you get your domain flipping business going full swing. You could make that by selling two to four domains each month, or even fewer than that if you excel at building traffic.

Don’t forget that you can make money with the websites you build for your domains. Once they start receiving traffic, they can bring in a significant amount of revenue through affiliate sales, pay-per-click advertising, or both. When you add this to the profit you make from the actual sale of the domain or website, it’s a little easier to imagine that $100,000 a year.

Domains are one of the few intangible products that virtually anyone can make money with. There is a bit of a learning curve when you’re getting started, but once you get the hang of it, the sky is the limit.

You can make a full-time income working part-time hours, and you can work those hours when it is convenient for you. Whether you are looking for an alternative to the 40-hour work week or just want to make some extra income on the side, domain flipping is a fun and
profitable way to do it.

Escrow Service When Selling Domains

Escrow is safer for everyone involved when selling your domain. It can protect you from being stiffed, and it assures the buyer that you will follow through on your end of the deal.

 

Escrow companies work as a go-between for the buyer and seller. Once you’ve agreed to sell your domain, you have the buyer send the money to the escrow company. The escrow company notifies you that payment has been received, and you transfer the domain the buyer. Once the buyer confirms that the domain has been transferred, he notifies the escrow company and the funds are released to you.

Of course it is important to select a reputable escrow company. If a buyer comes to you and insists on using a specific escrow company, especially one that you have never heard of, it might be in your best interest to pass on the offer. The good news is that some established domain auctions and classified sites offer an escrow service, making things easier and safer for all involved.

 

The only time it might be prudent to do a domain transaction without using an escrow service is when you’re doing business with someone you know. Otherwise, it’s better to be safe than sorry.

Where To Sell Domains

After knowing when to sell your domain, you need to find out where to sell it since where you sell your domain can have a significant impact on its selling price. There is no shortage of places where you can sell domains, but some places are better than others.

eBay is known for being a place where you can sell almost anything, and domain sales do take place there. But it’s not necessarily the best place to sell a good domain name. Domainers are more apt to visit websites that specialize in domains. While some do keep an eye on eBay listings, there often aren’t enough looking at any given auction to generate competitive bidding and drive the price up. You may have a chance with end users on eBay, but a growing number of them are turning to domain auctions or forums as well.

Domain auctions are the choice of many domain flippers. There are several that are quite popular among serious domain buyers. These include Afternic, Sedo, and SitePoint. Their formats are similar to eBay, but they only sell domain names and websites (and in some
cases, closely related items such as hosting and scripts). If you have a real gem of a domain, auction is probably your best bet for getting the most money possible out of it.

Some domain sellers prefer to list their domains in a classified or forum format instead of auctioning them off. If you have a specificprice in mind, this might be the best way to go. It usually takes longer to sell through classifieds, but you are under no obligation at all to sell it to any buyer at any price.

Another method that works well for many domain flippers is finding prospective buyers themselves and contacting them directly. For example, if you owned bluesuedeshoes.net, you might look up the owner of bluesuedeshoes.com and email him to see if he might be
interested in purchasing it. You could also contact owners of companies that sell blue suede shoes, or webmasters of Elvis websites. This won’t always work, but sometimes it works out quite nicely.

Finally, some domain flippers simply park their domains with a message on the page that states that the domain is for sale. This is a good strategy for expired or keyword-rich domains that will likely receive plenty of traffic. Not only can you list your site for sale with
minimal effort, you can also cash in on the advertising displayed on your parked page until you sell the domain.

Ready to Sell your Domains

Maybe you just bought your domain today, or maybe you’ve been working on building traffic and backlinks for months and months. Either way, when it comes time to sell your domains, there are a few things that bear consideration. We’ll go over those things here.

Should I Sell the Entire Website or Just the Domain?

If you haven’t created a website for your domain, this won’t be an issue. But if you have, do you want to sell the website along with the domain? In many cases, it won’t make a very big difference in the selling price. But if the website is wildly popular or offers something that Internet users can’t find elsewhere, it might.

Some domainers sell the domain on its own merits, but throw the website in to sweeten the deal. But if you offer the website and domain as a package, there might be prospective buyers who only want one or the other. Then you’ll have to weigh the merits of splitting them up versus keeping them together, and the prospective buyer might expect a lower price than he would have if you were selling just the domain in the first place.

Keep in mind that if you sell the domain only, you can keep the website content and graphics for future use. They could come in handy if you purchase a similar domain in the future.

 

Do I Want to Sell Wholesale or Retail?

There is no great mystery to wholesale versus retail sales of domains. Selling to an end user would be considered selling retail, just like it is in the world of tangible products. The selling price would be higher than it would if you were selling wholesale, but each buyer would probably only buy one domain, although they might buy a few similar ones. Retail buyers are usually looking for domains that have lots of traffic, or that contain the keywords they are targeting.

 

Wholesale domains are usually targeted toward fellow domain flippers. They may or may not buy a large number of domains at a time, but they are more likely to buy undeveloped domains or ones that have less value. If you buy domains straight from the registrar, or you’re looking to do a minimal amount of work with your domains, this might be the best option for you.

In summary, selling wholesale allows you to make money in shorter time frames with less work. Selling retail requires more time and work but brings higher profits per domain.

 

Watch how I created a website in two hours and sold it for $49,555.00. I do it again & again and you can too!
