Website Flipping

Key takeaways:

  1. Website Flipping: A Low-Cost Way to Start a Profitable Side Business
    Website flipping allows you to start a business with minimal upfront costs. Whether you buy existing websites or build them from scratch, the key is to enhance their value through content, SEO, and monetisation. You can leverage skills in digital marketing, writing, or website development to turn these sites into profitable assets. The more value you add, the higher your potential profit when you sell. Start small, learn the process, and scale as you gain experience.

  2. Start with a Clear Plan and Defined Goals
    Jenn advises having a structured approach when entering website flipping. She emphasises the importance of setting goals from the start, whether it’s for creative satisfaction or building a scalable business. Knowing the "why" behind your efforts will help maintain focus and guide decisions, especially when challenges arise.

  3. Take the First Step and Invest in Learning
    Jenn encourages aspiring website flippers to dive in and start. Many get stuck overthinking risks and technicalities, but she assures that anyone can learn as they go. Patience is crucial, as this side hustle requires time to see results. Investing in education, such as SEO strategies and monetisation techniques, is also key to long-term success.
