Buying and Flipping Websites: A Strategy for Generating Online Income

Buying and flipping websites can be a lucrative strategy for generating income online. Marketplaces like Motion Invest, Empire Flippers, and FE International provide opportunities to explore and purchase websites at various price ranges. It is important to determine your goals and criteria for purchasing a website, such as the niche, traffic, and monetization methods.
