According to Steven Endrizzi MBA, CEO of BizBroker24 , (the largest e-business mergers and acquisition company listing over $50 million in online businesses): “for a buyer or seller, determining the value of his or her website is probably one of the most difficult and complicated tasks.”
A limited functionality website is purchased at a low price and later sold at a higher price — up to four times the investment — after the site has been tweaked and modified for more attractive presentation and expanded functionality. “It seems that the Internet even provides a powerful investment opportunity, if you know how to flip a website properly,” added Marketing Manager Robert Sarner.
Sarner affirms there are many different types of websites available where buying and selling can take place. “One should understand the various types of websites available before making a decision about getting into the business of buying and selling websites. The type of website one chooses will depend on a variety of factors such as volume of traffic, nuimber of visitors, the age of the website, incoming revenue, business operation, and more.”
Among the most common types of websites available through Bizbroker24 are E-Commerce sites, blogs, online magazines, high PageRank sites, forums, drop-ship product sites, popular sales and Clickbank pages, Clickbank-ready affiliate sites, niche communities, paid membership sites and social networking websites.
“With rising interest in Internet businesses, it’s impossible to imagine a business thriving without the services of brokerage sites such as BizBroker24,” stated Sarner. “Clients are covered, from step A to step Z, with selling owned sites.
“A free evaluation of the business is conducted, and a broker works with clients to determine the best exit strategy and positioning to achieve the optimal sale amount.”
