Flipping blogs instead of burgers
It is amazing how often I stumble across entire markets on the Internet that I never realized existed. Today I learned about the market in small scale blogs. I've known about selling high volume sites, and joining blog networks, but this segment of the market is new to me. Here are posts from the buyer of The Poker Blog, the seller, and a link to the site where the transaction took place. According to the buyer, he paid $2,400 for a blog that was 5 months old with 1,000 page views a month. The seller's post is well worth reading. He is a student at Ohio State who built the blog with the intention of flipping it. He describes himself as an entrepreneur, and that is certainly the case. He made his $2,400 for just 100 posts, plus the work of building the blog.
