Selling Websites On Flippa – How I Sold A Starter Website For $500.
Here’s another example of how you can make extra income selling websites on Flippa. Over the last year and a half I’ve been building and selling starter websites using WordPress and selling them on Flippa as no reserve auctions. One of the best strategies I use is building starter sites focused around trending industries. In this case I built a marijuana dispensary directory Weed-Leads.com. I was able to purchase the domain on GoDaddy for $9, built the site with the Listify WordPress theme and sold it as a no reserve listing for $425.
Instead of typing out the whole thing I created an on-screen video talking more in detail. Check it out!

For those who already know WordPress and want to skip the build and design segment of the course, the segments where I setup my Flippa listings as well as how to transfer ownership of the domain and website to the new owner are sold separately here in this tutorial.
Hi Alec,
Thanks for showing the new way to make money online on flippa by flipping websites, but i am too confused about making and selling, transferring websites. please clarify =>
this is one of your listing “https://flippa.com/5940562-weed-leads-com” and as you wrote in description :
– GoDaddy Domain. ($9 value)
-Listify wordpress theme. ($64 value)
-WooCommerce Subscriptions Plugin ($199 value)
-WP Job Manager Paid Listings Plugin ($39 value)
-Job Manager Field Editor Plugin ($29 value).
so the total investment is around $340 and selling this listing in $425, calculation is $425-$340=$85
so the return is only $85
don’t you think this is so small amount of return on investment(ROI) it could be higher than this.
another thing i want to ask : how to deal with adsense optimized website suppose i have listed my adsense earning site on flippa and it got sold all the transferring and installing work are done, so my question is how he(the buyer) can show the ads on that site if he doesn’t have adsense account in this case do i need to remove that sold website from my adsense account or suppose the buyer doesn’t have approved adsense account so can he apply to the adsense with that website again which i have already applied or removed(is there any adsense policy violation)
i also saw all of your listings on flippa account and i think your domain names that are being sold by making websites those could be sold as only domain listings because they look much premium and could have been generated more money than selling by making websites
please clarify this confusion, if you post any kind of tutorial or course for this topic then it would be really helpful 🙂
thanks 🙂
Hey Gautam, great questions. To clarify, I own developer licenses for the plugins so my cost is not $340 each time I build a website, it’s merely the value of the plugins if purchased one time.
Thanks for the kind reply Alec, Can i Sell Blogger Blog ?
