Should you really flip websites instead of real estate?
So why would you want to ever consider flipping websites instead of real estate? As you well know, investing in real estate has historically proven to be a sound investment strategy when done properly. However, with the current recession, tighter regulations on obtaining loans, and the frustration that comes along with managing and maintaining properties, sometimes the cons can heavily outweigh the benefits to buying and selling houses. Regardless, flipping websites as a way to supplement and possibly even supersede the income generated with real estate is something worth considering. My business partner and I had flipped houses for years before diving into the website and internet marketing business. And the thing that we quickly discovered was that the profits and effort that went into producing web assets easily trumped our real estate business in less than a year! There were far less headaches, management, phone calls, emails, stress, and financial black holes than what we ever experienced as real estate investors. Needless to say, all the energy and attention is now being placed into a virtual real estate goldmine that has put our income on autopilot and provided the freedom we desire to spend on family and our other passions. Our goal is for you to achieve the same! Therefore, let’s consider the benefits of flipping websites over real estate:

Benefit #1 – Multiple Exit Strategies That Guarantee Return First, simply by choosing a high quality domain that is centered on keywords that generate a decent amount of traffic, you can quickly build a website that ranks well in the search engines and builds a solid “virtual location.” Just like the old adage “location, location, location,” there are plenty of buyers out there who are looking for a solid peace of online real estate without having to find, purchase and invest all the time and money into bringing a site to its full potential. People will easily put down a couple hundred to a few thousand dollars for a good website that is already producing proven results, and it won’t take you 6 months to get there! Next, there is always the buy and hold strategy. You may decide to pick up 10 or 20 quality domains and eventually find that 2 or 3 of those are hot topics. These websites will become your bread and butter. Turn those assets into an automated traffic generating machine and then build an online business around these subjects. As you build credibility with your audience and start to be recognized as an authority on the issue, you will be able to command both front end profits and offer various backend continuity products as well. Talk about a beautiful strategy for residual income! There are endless people out there looking for pioneers who will blaze a trail and show them the way. Produce a strong following via social media, drip email campaigns, blogging, free webinars, etc. and you will rapidly obtain celebrity status! Another great method is to produce high volumes of visitors to your chosen domain and find a way to convert those people into leads. In turn, you will be able to either sell those leads to an end user for a certain fee or you can rent out the website to a 3rd party for a monthly charge. For example, you may build up a great domain around terms related to the legal industry within your local area, and then allow a firm to “rent out your space” with their own information. You will be saving them loads of time, money and effort to get a high ranking site, and they will immediately witness the return on investment because you have already generated proven results!

Benefit #2 – No Major Holding Costs Whether you decide to hold onto your domains or try to sell them for a profit, the cost for maintaining virtual real estate is far (we’re talking thousands of dollars) less than what you would incur with physical property. You won’t have to deal with local and state taxes, insurance costs, utility bills, association fees and/or major catastrophes with your online business. There won’t be the nagging stress to unload a property or the fear of money wasted if you are unable to sell for an anticipated price. The “maintenance” that is performed on a website will be essentially free compared to the contractor costs, inspections, and closing fees associated with each real estate transaction. In the worst case scenario, you are out a hundred or so bucks on paying for a website that produces nothing in return. Additionally, as you learn and grow in this business, you will find strategies and techniques that work across the board for each site. You will be able to test and tweak different things until you discover a site structure that commands attention. In other words, you can conduct endless site repairs without running up additional costs. And as long as you produce a somewhat appealing site that ranks fairly well in the search engines, you still should be able to sell your website for at least the money invested. You may be very surprised what others consider to be a desirable domain.

Benefit #3 – Amazing Cash Flow Potential There is nothing worse than playing the constant game of finding tenants, filling vacancies, and dealing with past due rents. No matter how hard you may try, each real estate investor will face their fair share of problem tenants, hassles, evictions and vacant properties. Real estate can produce great residual income, but the property needs to be kept in fairly good condition, rents must be competitive, and it can be a very long time before the mortgage is paid down enough to start realizing some good profits. On the other hand, with buying or flipping websites, you will be able to get a rather strong hold on how much traffic your sites will generate on average, how many visitors will turn into leads and leads into a sale, plus customer service issues will be substantially low when you deliver quality content. There won’t be any worries about making huge website renovations (unless you really want to), or fearing that traffic numbers will plummet because people typically follow a set pattern. As you build up more and more websites, learn what truly works, and create several automated income generating sites, you will realize a great residual income that can easily be placed on auto pilot.
