This week’s deals feature 3 websites for sale from Empire Flippers and Flippa in the newsletters, and travel niches and a website from our private Facebook group in the pets niche.
For domains, we featured 3 domains from SerpDomains™.
🚀 3 Vetted Aged Domains
This week, we look at three premium-aged domains from our partner, SerpDomains.
1️⃣ LandrumGolf.com
24 years old — 122 ref. domains — $3,200
Let’s start with one of the more popular niches in content sites over the past decade: golf. This domain was originally used for a physical golf course in South Carolina. Due to that, over 24 years, it amassed a decent number of locally-based backlinks and links from major golf publishers like Golf Digest. We advise launching a simple dropshipping e-commerce site and leveraging both organic and paid social traffic. View on SerpDomains
2️⃣ SubMate.com
19 years old — 136 ref. domains — $2,550
This domain was originally used for an interesting dating/social app based in New York in the early 2010s. The business closed its doors over 10 years ago, but the domain was renewed for years. With its unique and brandable name, you have almost unlimited opportunities—whether for travel niche sites, developing your app, or even holding onto the domain to resell it later.

3️⃣ DetoxYourWorld.com
24 years old — 259 ref. domains — $4,700
As the name suggests, this domain was previously used for an e-commerce startup specializing in healthy foods and superfoods. It appears to have been UK-based, as many major UK publishers have links to the site. While we are not the biggest fans of this niche, we believe there are still opportunities to promote supplements through affiliate marketing, which often offers commissions of 30-50%. However, be aware that you may need to explore alternative traffic sources beyond Google. View on SerpDomains
🚀 3 Websites For Sale From Brokers
1️⃣ 3-year-old Subscription based newsletter making $2,453/mo on Empire Flippers
Digital subscriptions — Newsletter —36X — $88,308
We haven’t featured a newsletter in some time. This is an excellent example of a highly specialized newsletter with impressive metrics, such as a strong open rate, despite having a relatively small number of readers (11k). The revenue comes primarily from premium subscribers, which is a significant advantage over newsletters that rely solely on partnerships, as those can be highly unreliable. A 36X multiple is still quite high, but this one is worth checking out. View on Empire Flippers
2️⃣ 4-year-old Quiz Newsletter making $34,592/mo on Empire Flippers
Display ads — Newsletter —30X — $1,037,760
Another newsletter that proves even the simplest idea can succeed if executed properly. It is a leading newsletter in the quiz niche, with over 300k subscribers. While it is valued in the low 7-figure range, it would be a tough sell at the moment. Revenue has been both volatile and declining over the past 12 months due to the accompanying site’s traffic being impacted by recent updates. The best approach here would be to develop a mobile quiz app with a freemium revenue model. View on Empire Flippers
3️⃣ 5-year-old Travel lead generation site making $8,495/mo on Flippa
Marketing— Live Auction — ($155,486 indicative price)
A very interesting UK-based travel lead generation site that provides shuttle services to its visitors. Revenue is split between subscriptions and one-time fares. The biggest challenge here is traffic acquisition, which is either difficult to achieve organically or expensive through paid channels. However, the asking price seems fair. As always, be sure to conduct proper due diligence. View on Flippa
🚀1 Off-Market Site on Facebook
The Website Flip runs a free Facebook group where sellers can list sites for sale. Here is a selection of a few sites this week:
Starters Pets Lead Generation Site: A UK-based lead generation opportunity in the dog-sitting niche. With some existing traffic already coming to the site, it’s an intriguing concept worth exploring. The asking price is $2,000.
