How to Create a Successful Business by Flipping Websites

By Paul Marin

In essence, the model used by Dave Hermansen and his brother Mike is very simple. They would take a virtual property, in this case a domain name and website with some basic value in terms of traffic and page rank,but poorly done and not as productive. Then, after tweaking and fixing the website, they would sell it for thousands of dollars.

There is a famous case where they bought bird-cages.com for $1,800.00 and sold it after about three years for $173,000.00. It is not an isolated case study. They have repeated their success to a point where they have developed a system.

After realizing the potential that this type of information had, they started teaching others how to do exactly what they did. Many business owners would think that they were crazy to share their secret. Only that it wasn't a secret at all. In fact, flipping a house has the same model but applied to a land or physical property instead to a virtual property. This virtual property is called VRE that stands for virtual real estate.

They shared their knowledge because the number of niches available to work with is almost infinite. If people interests determine a niche, just imagine the vast they can be. It is overwhelming.

Their system is simple. They would divide their plan of actions with a few ordered steps:

They find a niche with good potential.
They look for an aged domain name with a good page rank and enough backlinks to make it a candidate. (Here they recommend to be extremely careful because Page Rank, or PR as they call it, is not the only factor, and sometimes, by simple applying a 301 302 redirecting, the PR can be faked. They recommend using a service like CheckPageRank.net in order to test other factors and of course Yahoo links)
Once they got their domain, which could also have been bought as in the case of Bird-Cage.com, they would create a better website and start an effective campaign to get enough traffic to start up a profitable business online.
Once the website generates enough revenue as to make it attractive to potential buyers, they start planning the next move, which is selling the website which has added value and could be valued in function of two or three years of potential future income(i.e.: 1 or 2 years based on real reports on performance of the site).
They preach at their projects that this is something anybody can do. In fact, after watching their videos and reading their tutorials, it is easy to get a grasp on how the business is such a great opportunity.

They speak on laypeople language and barely mention anything that might confuse their targeted audience. Their philosophy could perfectly be, "make it simple".

This quality has been recognized recently by another couple of entrepreneurs that have been creating the best quality products on the major areas of the Internet Marketing Industry. Steven Clayton and Tim Godfrey.

Teamed up, Dave, Mike, Steven, Tim and the whole army working for them and with them, because they are also users of the BlueprintCentral proprietary tools and techniques, have developed a real milestone for the online entrepreneur. They are not only top notch experts but also down to Earth people that listen and really make an effort to understand their customers.

They have achieved what very few Internet professionals have reached: They have loyal customer base with repeating transactions.

People are engaged and committed with a community, rather than just buying a great product, become overwhelmed by the amount of new information, and then, jump on to the next big thing on Internet businesses.

The new product spawned by the join venture formed by the Hermansen brothers and Steve and Tim is called Niche Blueprint and is a complete package with literally, everything an Internet marketer would need. Their new tools are blowing the minds of even the more seasoned experts on the field.

Those tools erased the difficulty variable from the Flipping websites formula created by the Hermansen Bros.

Those tools are really a have-to-see-to-believe type of tools. It saves months of work. In a week, you could have a winner website that could produce obscene amounts of cash as it has been demonstrated many times for both teams individually.

If you are planning to start up a business online, or just earn some extra thousands a month, you should consider flipping websites for a living. There are many skills involved as in any activity but nothing is rocket science and can be absorbed with the right focus.
