How To Buy A Micro Niche SiteWhether you're looking to find out how to buy a micro niche site, a ready made turnkey website or a done-for-you Amazon affiliate website, there's some things you should know…

Not only to safeguard yourself from the many website selling scams out there, but to make sure you make a good and solid investment.

I'm Simon and today my affiliate website porfolio makes me over $6,000 a month (and growing).

When I started out I couldn't afford to outsource anything – I did all the website building, content creation, social media promoting, design etc. myself.

You name it, if it had to be done, I was the only one who was going to get it done.

This is how most of us start out I think, but as most regular Make Money Online Blog readers know – I'm a huge advocate for re-investing the money your affiliate websites make back into your businesses.

Today I use sites like iWriter.com, Fiverr.com and HumanProofDesigns.com to outsource website building, logo designs, keyword research and writing and I recommend you do the same as soon as you can.

I always say outsource as soon as you can! Because it's the fastest way to give you time to concentrate on scaling and growing your online business.

In his book Rich Dad, Poor Dad, Robert Kiyosaki talks about how the rich are rich because they know how to leverage their time and money so it works for them. I read it when I was 18 and since then I've learned how to make time and money work for me.

But buying a done-for-you Amazon affiliate website is a big step and there are things you need to look out for if you're to safeguard your investment and see a return.

5 tips on how to buy a micro niche site and actually see a return on investment

1. Avoid Cookie Cutter websites like the plague

[cookie cutter image]A cookie cutter site is a website you buy along with dozens of other people.

You've got be really careful with sites like Flippa.com where you'll lots of people making big promises but with nothing to back them up.

It's hard to find good website sellers out there who don't try to rip you off by making as much money as they can selling the same website to as many people as possible, changing nothing but the domain name and logo.

Sites with duplicate content will never get ranked in Google so you can wave goodbye to any potential of free website traffic coming your way.

2. Don't ever buy a website based on the ‘earning potential' it has

Most website seller set the the starting price based not on what the website is worth now, but on what they think it's be worth say in 1 or 2 years time.

The fact is the only reason you're looking to buy a micro niche website is because you're investing into an online business.

This is why you need to make sure you know exactly how much your website can earn for you and what you need to do to make that happen.

There are affiliate niche site builders out there who will give you full information on what keywords a particular website is ranking for, what the estimated monthly earnings are backed-up my hard data. (more on this in a sec)

3. Look at the quality of after-sales support

Buying a website is just the beginning of the process. It's important to look at what level of support you're the website owner.

Will the person or company you're buying the website from give you an action plan to maximise your affiliate commissions or just leave you high and dry after the sale has gone through?

The truth is, most website sellers don't even offer any support whatsoever. In their eyes you buy the website ‘as seen' and that's the end of it.

Ideally, you should look for a micro niche site that comes with an earnings caluclator, a keyword strategy and plan of action so you get the most out of your investment.

4. Only go for websites built with the WordPress platform

Be careful when buying pre-built or custom-built websites that are not built on well-known website building platforms like WordPress.

Why?

Because if something needs to be changed or fixed down the line you'll save yourself a headache (and a fortune) if you can't do it yourself or get someone else to do it easily.

5. Always go for quality design and content

Never buy a website with Private Label RIghts (PLR) content. This could be articles or posts that you can buy cheaply or are available for free.

is filled out with only high quality, unique sales copy in order to maximise the user experience of your website visitors and maximise conversions.

It might be worth checking a sample of posts for duplicate content, Copyscape.com can be your best friend here.

Ideally you want a website that's built using premum (paid-for) themes and plug ins that make your website look professional, give you quick page loading times and make your site search engine friendly.

Aged Sites

An aged site is a website that's been indexed in Google for 6 months or more. As all experienced affiliate marketers know, Google doesn't start to rank a new website seriously until the 6 month mark.

The beauty of buying an aged site is that you can view existing Google rankings and sales history because they're already built they can be transferred over to you very quickly.

    • You are more than welcome Shannon! Although I recommend beginners start off by focussing on a single site, I’ll admit it’s nice to have a couple of niches to jump between. Sometimes it’s nice to take a break from a particular niche! I hope you find the site you’re looking for! 🙂

  1. Hi Simon,

    I would like to ask if I buy a ready-made micro niche website, can I select the host I want? 

    I also like to buy a niche site or hire writers so I can focus on generating more sales and moving my business forward. HPD sure seems a lot beginner-friendly and way more high value than Flippa.

    Thanks

    • Yes! Once the site is yours the support team will talk to you about hosting options and it is entirely up to you.

  2. Hi Simon,

    This article provided excellent information. Although I’m not yet in a position to start buying ready-made micro niche sites, I have decided I would want to do this in the future.

    In the article you indicated we should stay away from PLR sites and I definitely agree with that. My question is how can I identify a PLR site? What gives them away? Would I be able to see that it is a PLR site or is it just by running article through a plagiarism checker?

    I have book marked this article to refer to it later.

    Cheers,

    Verna

    • Definitely something to work towards Verna 🙂

      PLR stands for Private Label Rights and it’s when you can buy the rights to re-publish content. The issue with these is that these are sold to 100s of people at a time so there’s no search engine value and no chance of ranking for any of your content. Maybe the only time to use this is as a free give away incentive to help build your email marketing list, otherwise I wouldn’t bother.

      Yes you should always do due diligence and make sure all content of a website is 100% original before ever handing any money over. The best plagerism checker I’ve found is completely free to use and can be found at NoPlag.com.

      Hope this helps!

  3. I have looked at several different places to buy sites to add to the portfolio of ones I have built myself.

    I found a I was out of my depth with deciding if the price was right or not and if it was a bonafide site at all. You would think after building my own I would have some idea but I just kept going round in circles with making a decision.

    Your post has really helped me to think more clearly and will definitely be checking out Human Proof Designs.

    • Thanks Karen, your comment made my day! You really can’t go wrong with a Human Proof Designs’ micro niche site. I know they have an early bird list too so you can get emails when the latest sites are released. Feel free to check out my Human Proof Designs review here if you haven’t yet and let me know if you have any questions.

  4. I am very familiar with Human Proof Design and its founder, Dom Wells. He’s really a good guy, and one of the persons I look up to. Being an online entrepreneur by heart, I sometimes think of buying a ready-made micro niche site from him one of these days.

    I just have a question to ask…

    If the site I am about to buy is already making money in Amazon, who will convert the affiliate links throughout the site to my affiliate link? Me, or the seller?

    Reply
    • Hey Gomer, So with a done-for-you micro niche site that’s already making money with Amazon you’re going to be looking at the Aged Sites because these already have existing rankings and traffic. Once you’e bought the site, the after-sales support team guide you through organising your own web hosting, creating an Amazon affiliate account if you need to and so on and transfer all the links over to you.

      Hope this helps and yes, Dom is the real deal and even in the last 12 months I’ve seen him make Human Proof Designs better and better. I have bought article packs from him before and his work is definitely the best quality I’ve seen and the prices are very reasonable too.

  5. Hi Simon,

    I have checked out niche sites that were for sale on Flippa.

    I wanted to buy one but I was not sure if it was a good decision.

    I think that I need to learn how to evaluate a website. How do you decide how much you should pay for a site?

    Reply
    • With Human Proof Designs it’s easy because you can either choose the Starter $998 option or the Premium $1299 option. When you browse the niche sites for sale take a look at the attached esimated earning potential for that site. This should give you an idea on how quickly you’ll get a return on your investment.

      I’ve seen sites on Flippa going for $3,000-$5,000 and when I looked they might have high traffic but low conversions. Low quality traffic is the same as no traffic – any niche marketer knows you need traffic thats highly targeted and ready to buy.

      Wherever you buy your site from, always do your research and decide what your goals are.

      Hope this helps!

  6. Hi Simon

    Thank you for this review, I am a complete newbie on the Internet business and I’ve seen some many stuff online that is super overwhelming. It sounds great the fact that you can skip a big part of the process of building the business buying turnkey websites, but my main problem is the budget, then if my budget now is not enough to do that path, what can you suggest that I can do? I understand that to build a business you need to invest but if money is short, it’s any other way to go. Also if my Internet business start produces revenue I will re invest the money to get bigger, what are your thoughts about it? thanks again

    • Hi Roberto, honestly I think Human Proof Designs offer great value. In my Human Proof Designs review I point out that if you were to buy the premium themes, plug ins and content it would end up costing you a lot more and would take a lot more time to get to the same point.

      But I totally get that at $499, this might not be for everyone. It boils down to what you have more of: time or money. If you have more money, buying a micro niche site is definitely the smart way to go, if you have more time then I guess you can build your own site from scratch, but be aware that this process will take a lot longer.

      I’m a huge advocate for outsourcing as soon as possible, so I always recommend re-investing the profits you make from your niche site back into outsourcing content ro expanding your portfolio to include new niches.

      You ask a great question, I hope this helps. 🙂
