Newly-Launched FlipWebsites.com: Not Your Average Website Flipping Resource

Just a few years ago, buying and selling websites, commonly referred to as website flipping, was a relatively unknown concept. Sure, there were people doing it, but it wasn't a primary business model like its "domain flipping" counterpart. Lately however, all that has changed. There has been an explosion of growth in the website flipping industry over the past couple years. Some have made it a full-time source of income, others flip websites occassionally, and still thousands more are just getting into the business.

To meet the demands of the ever-increasing trend of website flipping, FlipWebsites.com was launched. While the site was first established in 2007 to promote a popular ebook on site flipping, Travis Van Slooten, the owner of FlipWebsites.com, purchased the site in November 2009 and completely revamped it with one goal in mind: to be a free and comprehensive resource for people who flip websites.

"Most of the sites focused on this niche are either pure marketplaces for buying and selling websites, or are sales promotions for books and courses about this business," Van Slooten says. "What makes FlipWebsites.com unique is that it's a resource that provides useful tips and strategies on flipping websites, as well as up-to-date market analysis – all at no cost."

Aside from providing site flipping techniques, offering detailed reviews of the best marketplaces for websites today, and featuring books and courses that can help potential site flippers learn more, FlipWebsites.com also provides a weekly market snapshot that gives invaluable insight on what's happening in the industry. According to Van Slooten, this type of information is "very unique and is something that one would be hard-pressed to find elsewhere."

With so many places where you can buy and sell websites, and so many resources available, it can be overwhelming even for the professional, let alone those just starting out. Through its reviews and recommendations, FlipWebsites.com aims to clear the confusion and save people money in the process by directing visitors to the right marketplaces and resources the first time around.
