How You Can Make Money By Domain Flipping and Website Flipping

[Mika]

The word flipping refers to "buying something for cheap and then selling it for a higher price." Therefore, domain flipping is buying domains for a cheap price and selling them later for a higher price. Likewise, website flipping is buying a website, or building a website, for a small price and then selling them for profits.
There are a lot of marketplaces where you can make money by domain flipping and website flipping. The most reputed domain and website marketplace is Flippa.
Do you actually make money by domain flipping and website flipping, what is the cost like? How much you can actually make?
In 2016, when Mark Zuckerberg's daughter was born, a guy from India registered a domain on Zuckerberg's daughter's name for less than $10. Facebook bought that domain for $700.
The key is registering the right domain name.
As far as website flipping is concerned, you can visit flippa to see how much a website is selling for. Even a starter website gets $200 or more. How much does it cost to build one website, not much if you are doing by yourself. While buying a website, tweaking it little and reselling can cost you money, when you build yourself and if you can also write contents, your cost is just the money you invested on the domain.

Domain flipping business is very profitable. It requires one to do a lot of research in order to understand what names sell or not. In this business, I can freely say the information you have is more important than just having the money to start. If you don't make research, you end up buying useless names that won't sell.
Namepros.com is a great place to connect and learn from people who are into this business.

Most aftermarket sites that help you buy or sell a domain name attract a lot of people who really want to give you pennies for your domain name. The exception is the motivated buyer who sees a value beyond that what you originally paid for the domain name. The struggle is matching up your domain with the right buyer.

Whatever place you want to sell your domain on it’s worth it to go the extra mile and to advertise that name either via the aftermarket site, for example Flippa offers paid advertising methods to get your domain noticed, or to add some content to your site like perhaps adding some Amazon products to it or some stories on it, or use Google Adwords or Facebook or Bing and spend a little to help make the sale.

Accordingly, you can sell domain names depending on the quality of the domain name itself and finding the right buyer.

Domain flipping is really not for the faint hearted,make sure you know your onions before stepping into it as it's really not as easy as it looks.

Domain flipping is lucrative and highly rewarding if you can study, analyse and predict trends. Although, it's time consuming but without learning before investing in domain names you might end up losing your money.

You can make excess money on flipping domain and website flipping as well. I have seen a situation where someone just invested little on buying a domain product and later sold it so much more than what he bought it. Some people have also sold an account which they used little money to buy. Flipping website and domain businesses have greatly imparted so many people but most times there are loses as well.

Well said, I have been noticing recently about some persons testifying that domain flipping business is legit and profit comes from it also. I have some domain I would like to sell, maybe I will visit the flippa site. To see if I can place my two domains for sell.

You Basically buy domains and resell them for greater value, its either the value ascended for a particular person, brand or it got more expensive in general, most domain flippers would put an eye out for new companies and startups and predict the potential domain of which that company will buy and they'll reserve it , then demand more money for it from the company, another method is to keep your domain until the domain's value itself rises up by time as more and more traffic is brought in.

you don't really have to visit any special website, you can just set your domain for sale any moment you want by your provider, put a price and contact info and even set up an auction for it.

 

[Sotherefore]

That one is really simple you can just go to any domains saving website such as namecheap from there you can search for free or expired domains And register and you buy it and keep the security as your own, there are also some website that people can list out their domain for sale to prospective buyers you can search them on Google and find those website that is suitable and it's easier for you and register and list your domain for sale that's all

Domain flipping is a very profitable business. But one must get adequate knowledge before trying this business. You need to know what kind of domains sells well and where to get them at cheaper price.
Namecheap ,epik, godaddy are good places to get domains for as little as $10.

Good one, I was thinking that I needed to visit a domain flipping website, in order to put it on sell anytime I want to. Apart from that idea, do you think I can sell it without visiting a flipping website??

A tactic I've enjoyed some successes from in the past, is the acquisition of 'big label' domain names when a new domain launches. There's quite a few new domain handles released each year, and if you can register something generic that may be wanted like 'UnitedStates.co' (just as an example), then it's easy to leverage quite a high sale later down the line once domains in that category are harder to register/more taken.

Not done so much website flipping however

 

[olajohn]

Domain flipping is a very cool business, the only challenge one may face is buying the wright domain, because is you buy a wrong one, it will just be useless

 

[kayode10]

Both domain name and website flipping are profitable. But I prefer that domain name flipping because it does not take much time to make profits, unlike website flipping. Websites flipping requires nurturing of the website you want to flip for certain period before you can sell it. But you can buy a good domain name today and got it sold the next day if you do outbound on it.

I have heard people making a lot of money through domain flipping, and I have also seen people domain aold for high price in domain market places, however, never tried this myself. I don't even know what kind of domains get sold for better price.

Flippa charges $10 listing fee. In other words, in order to sell your domain via flippa you will have to list on flippa market place by paying $10. After your domain is sold, they will charge you an additional 10 percent as success free. In other words, if your domain is sold for $100, you will have to pay $10 as a success fee or commission. If you sold for $100, you will earn $80 from your domain.

When it comes to the domain flipping business you make money by purchasing new domain names at a cheap price and also expired domains then selling them off at an expensive price and same thing can be applied to website flipping business.

I flip websites, I build website, market the website for traffic, start running ads and make money on the website, and then I list on website. Since website has traffic and revenue, it gets sold

We've discussed this before, you're making progress with such option. Building up a site from scratch and selling it off when the site is up and running with ads, and revenue.
