Selling Website for Good Money
Is Possible – Read How…
With this publication Free Traffic System starts a line of publications (as promised earlier here) that will explain how to find a client with nice money for a web site with traffic. And – logically – how to sell this site for a nice lump sum.
But before I go to the first publication, I must clearly explain why I am giving away these tips (and will continue to publish more new tips) for free. Surely in this mean and cruel world I am doing it for a purpose. On FreeTrafficSystem.com we want to start a new type of the business – getting nice affiliate commissions from selling established sites with targeted traffic from search engines.
Right now is the best time to do that, because people want recession-proof solutions. They need to save their online businesses. They are tired of investing the money into all stupid HYIPs and get rich schemes. And a web site, with nice ranks in search engines, with stable and targeted traffic (where every click can be verified) is a great product. This is a solid product, because you can show to the buyer of the site detailed traffic stats (like this, for example) and the buyer will see what exactly the visitors on the site are looking for.
And you don’t need to have your own sites – Free Traffic System will give you our own sites and the sites of our FTS users – each and every site verified for traffic validity. This is your own portfolio of products. Sell a site, and get hundreds or thousands $$$ from each sale (all depends upon the site value).
But, Where to Find these People with Money
Who are Ready to Pay Nice Price
So that I Get My Affiliate Commissions?
And this is where I am opening the first “playground” – full of people who are already spending money or are on the verge to pay money for getting targeted search engine traffic from search engines.
I am talking about – freelance forums.
BUT, not all types of freelance forums, I am talking about the freelance forums where people are looking for freelance SEO services.
I will explain a little later how to find the best ones, but let’s start with answering “Why SEO freelance forums?!”
Don’t forget that this is the place where people with money come to get some help with traffic from search engines. And there are two types of people who are looking for SEO freelancers:
(1) Direct clients – people who need targeted traffic from search engines.
(2) SEO intermediaries – usually these are SEO services that are getting paid by the clients to bring more traffic and who need to outsource part of their job.
Though it may look that direct clients are better for you to sell the site, actually SEO intermediaries in lots of cases have proven to be much better in helping to sell sites with traffic. First of all, because good SEO intermediaries have a big lists of clients. Secondly, because SEO intermediaries are great at selling stuff to their clients, which means that they can convince a client to pay money for the site with traffic (having put their own nice profit delta to the value of the site). And finally, SEO intermediaries understand the value of traffic and you don’t need to explain the basics to them. If they see that they can make good lump sum of “extra cash” by making their client happy – they are on your side.
Both direct clients and SEO intermediaries have pros and cons for you, when it comes down to selling sites to them.
With direct clients the advantage is that you can make more money on them (no intermediaries – you get it all) – all you need is to explain that SEO will take time and no guarantees of WHEN they will see results from it, whereas the turnkey site with established traffic is a solid and very predictable thing that they can touch, smell and taste. So, basically you are playing on the fear factor here and sell them stability. The disadvantage is that you need to search for new direct clients all the time.
With SEO intermediaries you make less money, because they will also put their profit delta – and this is a disadvantage. But the advantage is that an intermediary that makes one sale with you most likely will convert into your personal gateway for selling more and more sites in the future.
The Battle Plan for Making Commissions
From Selling Sites with Traffic on Freelance Forums.
Now we are coming to the plan of actions that you need to do to reach the people with money and make your %% from the sale.
Step 1. Register on freelance forums.
I am not limiting you to join just specific sites, but the giants of this market are:
http://www.elance.com
http://www.getafreelancer.com
There are tons of other sites, just do a Google search for “freelance” or “freelancer”. I am showing only these 2 sites, because they are HUGE.
Step 2. Update your site portfolio.
We have just started to add the sites, and a lot more are in the pipeline. But you can already visit this ‘Buy Web Site‘ page to get the updated list of sites that are available for reselling.
Each site is verified for traffic validity. You can get detailed keyword-by-keyword report on them. And traffic value estimation.
Sites are in different niches. With different traffic value and – price. Some sites cost cheaper, some are highly priced. So, you can choose the site or sites that “fit your guts” best of all.
Once you are ready with the choice, you can target the potential clients.
Step 3. Getting it touch with targeted clients.
Getting in touch is the most psychologically exciting part of the process.
First of all, because you shouldn’t lose your face when doing that. The approach of “we have a lovely site, please buy it” will not work, because this is instantly killing the value of any site in the eyes of potential buyer.
Actually, by giving people a possibility to buy site with established niche traffic you save them from: money investments into SEO, from time investments into SEO, from all that nasty stuff that is appearing on the slippery road of fighting to page 1.
So, there are no jokes in saying that you help these people to shortcut to their success. If you see that they are interested in pushing a site in a certain niche, get in touch with them explaining the situation. Why waiting, when you can get it on the plate? And the price that they will pay for the site (even with your affiliate commissions included) will be less than the sum that they might need to invest into SEO to get to page 1.
You are saving their nerves, shortcutting the time for getting page 1, helping their business to get targeted visitors NOW and make nice affiliate commissions from this help. Helping people and getting paid – this is cool.
When it comes down to the work with SEO intermediaries – the approach is a little different. Because you don’t need to explain the value of traffic to them. Instead, you must make them feel you are a person that can flood them with sites (with traffic) in almost any niche. And they can sell these sites and make a lot more than on reselling their own services.
So, it’s really up to you whether to choose direct clients or SEO intermediaries; the most important is that know you know the pros and cons of each strategy.
