There are many ways of making money online amongst which flipping websites is probably one that gets more attention. And this business is growing larger by larger everyday as more and more people and trying their hands into it.
I know Building & Flipping Mini Niche Sites is something very common and the general opinion is that this method of generating revenue is now saturated. However, you’d actually be surprised at how wrong everyone’s assumption is.
The key in this case is efficiency and quick turnaround. You need to keep in mind at all times that your aim is to make as many mini niche sites as you can, in as little time, while maintaining the high quality and look.
In this post, I will be explaining some key points on which you should focus if you are looking to make money online flipping websites.
(Stare at the above pic for 10 sec. to see something interesting)
Build Them Quick & Nice
Use wordpress. Yes, Blogs. That’s what we will be making. Register 5 domains to start with. Try to keep them all in a different niche. But make sure the niche is popular and in high demand(for example, during Christmas season you could have made a blog with Christmas dishes recipies, songs etc.). Of course, not too competitive; just enough to interest potential buyers. Get a new shared hosting account to get managed hosting services. Add those 5 domains. Install WordPress on all of them.
Configure & Customize
From this point, start working on them one by one. Individually, You don’t have to put up custom made themes for any of these blogs. A decent looking theme (If you have developer rights to a magazine theme, that would be awesome) will do. But remember to have a custom header and logo for each site. It helps differentiate your blog from the rest that use the same theme as yours.
For plugins, don’t go on experimenting with every new plugin. Install the necessary ones. Over the top of my head, I can recommend All in One SEO, Google Sitemap Generator, Comment Captcha plugin, Secure Login system, Google Adsense management, and Contact Us plugin.
Content and Pages.
Once you’re done with plugins and theme(s). Your next step is adding content. Remember the key – quick and simple. You don’t need 100,000 words of content in a ‘mini niche site‘. I’d say, 4-5 posts of 400-500 words each will be more than sufficent. And of course, pages. Do NOT forget to edit and change the About page. And make sure you add a ‘Contact Us’ page.
Additionally, try to include (if appropriate) these pages; ‘Privacy Policy’, ‘T.O.S’, ‘Sponsored Posts’, ‘Link Exchange’. They may not apply to every niche, but include them in the ones you feel they would do well in. They raise the overall ‘professional’ outlook.
SEO and Promotion
You installed the SEO plugin. Use that, along with pretty-permalinks and make sure your blog has search engine friendly URLs as well as appropriate titles, keywords, description, etc for each post and page. This is optional, but recommended.
Once you’re done with SEO, you’ll have a mini blog with content, a unique logo/header, a decent theme, and all the necessary plugins.
Now, you can either flip it, or promote it a bit, THEN flip it. Promotion would be simply adding all the posts to the top social bookmarking sites and submitting your blog(s) to a few high PR (but free) directories.
Flip It!
You can price it whatever you want. But an average price of $25 – $50 is optimum. If you promoted it, then mention that in your auction. It gives your blogs an advantage. You can try selling your niche sites made for flipping on websites like:
- Flippa.com
- Sitepoint Marketplace
- Digitalpoint Forums
Conclusion
The idea is basically to create as many mini blogs as you can and flip them for cheap. Since you’re selling them for relatively low price ($25 or $50 for a unique content mini site is quite cheap) you can be sure they’ll all sell quick. And because they’re mini blogs, they should be quicker to construct. If you are ready to jump start any business be sure to get involved in flipping mini niche sites.

Thanks for the article. I always want to build mini niche sites then scale this up to 10 or 20 sites that goes automaticly. You know that it isn’t so much hard work behind this sites, but they always gives you $$$.
And after for example, 5 months, that each sites maybe give you 500$, you have for example 20 sites, 20 sites x 500$ = 10 000$, then sale this sites FOR 25 000$

If your set up is to build websites and flip them it is fine. But I would think twice to sell a website that is making money for you.
Hey ,
Thanks for this great post , i like niche blog flipping and i know which niche should work .
so , here is 3 niches that you can choose to create blogs.
1. Golf Swing
2. Weight Loss Tea
3. Credit Report
Nice post and I read the entire post very well..because this is something that I am very interested to. I heard of many people earning lots of money by selling websites and I never know how did they do that. Thanks to you that you share your knowledge about this.
Anyway, If I would create a mini sites and go for flipping, I think I would stay using it for a couple of months and if I could see there are possibility good stream of income on any of my sites, off course I will not sell it and those who are not giving me revenue would be sell to flipping sites..heheh
Wow, you can really sell them so cheap? I wouldn’t have thought that would be worth the bother, unless you get a particular enjoyment from building these sites. How long does it typically take you, from finding a domain name, installing wordpress, picking wordpress theme, populating the site with content, pictures and logos? How much would expect to get if you had promoted the site? Just curious, I’ve thought about trying this, but I kind of hoped it would be more lucrative…

- All this can be done in one day. But it should not take more than 2-3 days.
How much would expect to get if you had promoted the site? Just curious, I’ve thought about trying this, but I kind of hoped it would be more lucrative…
- If you have can show proofs of good Google rankings for any keyword with high traffic then it will help you to raise the price bar of your site. If you have done any other SERIOUS marketing for the site then just offer it as a proof and how it helped you in anything like sales, leads etc.
On one hand, I agree with the concept of selling websites but on the other hand what if the website is already making good money? I’ve come across people who’ve tried flipping but I’ve not tried so far. There has to be a good calculation before selling off the sites.
I thinks flipping website is a good idea and many people do the business at flippa,however I have never tried it. I think it is better to promote the site so that it starts giving you some money in return and then only you can think flipping it.

When selling the mini-site, would you zip up and package everything to the new owner OR would you give additional option of them keeping the site where it is located (on your hosting server for example) and offer a hosting fee (monthly / yearly minimal) and possibly include in hosting price, the cost of registering domain for them as long as they continue to host?
It would be like selling a package that a newbie wouldn’t need to try to find their own hosting and installing etc.
What are your thoughts on this?
When selling a mini niche sites, it would be great if you can offer free transfer service as it will satisfy the buyer but if you don’t wish to transfer it for free then read below.
It is recommended to offer the buyer free hosting for some period so that they can prepare themselves for moving the website onto their servers.
And it is also a great idea to offer paid hosting on your server but make sure you have reseller hosting so that they get control on what they can do anytime.

Nice tips. I’ve started a mini site 3-4 months ago. It’s not getting good traffic, so I’m planning to sell it.

There’s always good money being made in website flipping. However, you need to take the time to add value to that website by improving its design, content and traffic as well as ad revenue. The longer you own the website and the more you increase its value, the more money you could potentially make.
Great article ..Mini niche sites are easy to sell as compared to huge one and we can get profits easily ..Thanks for the nice post
I’ve bought some site flipping guides before but I never actually went out and flipped a site. I just thought it would take too much effort to do and the hardest part is selling it off.

Flipping a small blog is an ok-way of getting some income. If you do promote it well, then chances are that you will sell it for a higher price.
Writing fast and coming up with creative domain names is an optimal way of getting income through.
