Personally, I think flipping sites isn’t worth it, you will be able to make much more from actually earning from the site.

@Mark — I definately recommend that you think about ROI each and every time that you consider outsourcing. Just be careful to consider the value of your time in the equation.

For example, you and I were struggling with HTML the other night (do you remember that IM conversation). The creation of squeeze pages is a perfect example of something to outsource. You write the copy in word or something and give it to a html guy….he does it while you sleep and you pay him $5-$50 bucks depending on what you need.

Regards,
Mark

I sent you a PM this morning on the address of your mailinglist (not sure if it was right to use that).

Sure Alex — my pleasure.

My one piece of advice across all niches, markets and industries is “Take Massive Action.”

Mark

You’re right: better to hammer out more projects (with the low risk that once in a year get copied), rather than be stucked and not getting done nothing.

Thanks for your reply.

@MMOSafely — I have lots of AdSense on other sites. I have found that adsense does not convert well in the IM niche on blog home pages.

However, on blog pages that get SE traffic (like tag pages), it does better. You can see an example here: http://www.masonworld.com/tag/make-money-online/

Hope that helps, Mark

@Big Blogger — Definitely a risk, but not one that I worry about. Here is the deal. If you have a great small idea – just do it, get it out there, be first and promote it. The internet it enormous, and there will be plenty of hits to go around. In some cases (possibly not yours ), people use this worry as an excuse to procrastinate. Just take massive action and outrun the competition.

If, on the other hand, your idea is a big idea or theft of the idea would harm your business directly, you can have the developer sign a NDA. For example, if you just invented Twitter or MySpace, get an NDA. Make sure you involve a reputable programmer and consult an IP atty to discuss protection of trade secrets and patents.

Note that the above does not constitute legal advice, I am not an atty (I do not even play an atty on TV).

Mark i noticed you don’t have any adsense ads yourself, why not?

Hi Mark,
One psycological obstacle which I face when trying to outsource some coding on sites like Rentacoder is that, as long as you have to make very detailed specifications on what you whant (in order to be sure to get a good result), I’m afraid that somebody else could copy my idea.

Would love to hear your opinion.

@Kent — I think that site flipping should be a key part of an AdSense empire strategy

1. Spin up sites very fast
2. Do some marketing for each site
3. Wait (wait while repeating #1 and #2)
4. Identify profitable sites
5. Sell the ones that are not profitable.

Regards,
Mark

Mark, that is precisely what I’m struggling with — the need to get something done, but not have the time or especially the money to do it.

So what do I resort to? Yep — doing it myself. The upside is that I’m learning so that next time I’ll get better at doing it and it hopefully won’t take as long. But of course, the downside is my wife and kids asking for identification when I enter the house.

What I wish — what I think we all wish — is to know if we could make $1,000 in the first 10 days with our product as well, we wouldn’t be so concerned about spending (investing) the money into what we’re building. I can just imagine the look on my wife’s face when I can tell her I just made enough to pay for my kids school books or we can buy that [insert product here] we’ve been wanting to get.

That’s where I want to be. Financial freedom, my friend. I will get there. Perhaps these freelancers can help, so I’ll go check them out.

Hey Mark – what is your take on Site flipping? I’m wondering if there’s merit to it? Let’s say you spend $50 outsourcing a site totally turn-key and then flip it for $100. You walk away with $50 cash just for putting it all together and turning on the switch. I frankly don’t understand the point of spending $100 on a site not generating revenue, but apparently some are doing it.
