Where to find good website offers?
Posted By admin on September 2, 2008
Websites are sold in a number of different places. You can find offers on webmaster forums, on eBay and other auction sites, or on special trading sites dedicated to the buying and selling of businesses.
Webmaster forums are probably the best place to look for a website purchase. The sites offered there are usually worth buying and they are hardly ever lemons (and if they are it quite possible that forum members will point it out). The only drawback is a particular forum won’t provide you with a very wide selection of sites.
Another good place is Ebay because the websites there are usually not overpriced, though 99% of all eBay website listings are lemons. They are either using stolen content and/or designs, or they are just cookie cutter sites that some company churns out. eBay is where you will have to frequently resort to Alexa and The Google Toolbar.
Special trading sites are in my opinion the worst source of website offers. Although fraud does not occur very often neither does realistic process. People tend to ask for tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars for sites with almost no traffic and revenue. To put it simply, they hope to find at least one sucker who will eagerly pay these extremely high prices and then they will be set financially for awhile.
