It might happen to some. The most important is to gain some money in selling it. It depends on the situation though. It was sold because it cannot be sustained by the owner.

Although it is not very common but if somebody is doing this and getting good money from it then he is doing well. It's also better to spend time to make own website so the skill will also improve and earning will be more.

They are very profitable and some people even monetize those websites with Google advertisement

One must conduct thorough research, identify websites with potential for growth, and understand market trends to make informed purchasing and selling decisions. Additionally, improving a website's revenue and traffic can increase its value before selling.

i think it depends on the website. A valuable website will sell more than others

It can be profitable if you can find buyers for your website. I have not bought too many websites but I have managed to sell a lot of websites and made a substantial profit by selling websites., I have made $2000 by selling a single website.

Just focus on learning wordpress, if you are skilled with wordpress, you can build all sorts of websites. It does not take a lot of time to learn wordpresss, you don't even have to spend money top learn wordpress, you can try youtube.

I have read reviews from beer money forum about people making good money from website flipping. So I know it can be very profitable if you have the skills of the business.

I would say that buying and selling websites is definitely something that is profitable but you would need skills in both marketing and SEO for the website that you buy as the more traffic you can get to the site before you sell the website as you would want to gain a profit when selling the website and not end up with a loss. If you have those skills then it could end up being a profitable business.

I think people make a living buying and selling websites. You can buy an unlimited bandwidth hosting plan or reseller plan and domains that allow you create as many blogs. It's good to have a good traffic source as well.

Some people create the website, grow it and then sell it for decent profits. That's what my mentor does with some blogs, and I have also considered going this route too.

Creating a profitable website can be a good idea. Many web developers build and then sell websites at a higher price to make money.
You said it right. If I am computer savvy, I would do the same thing. Unfortunately, I need to study or even have a short-term course for having this idea to push through.
