This week’s deals feature 3 websites for sale from Empire Flippers and Flippa in the licensing, gardening, and travel niches and 2 websites from our private Facebook group in the automotive and finance niches.
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 WalletWyse.com
9 years old — 124 ref. domains — $1,570
The domain, a former finance niche site, expired this year, but it still ranks for some keywords. The previous content on the site included various finance calculators. A minor issue is that the domain name is similar to Wise.com, which could lead Google to autocorrect brand searches. Overall, if you’re planning to start a new finance blog, every advantage helps, and this domain could serve as a shortcut to gaining initial meaningful organic traffic. View on SerpDomains
2️⃣ GratuitousType.com.com
15 years old — 89 ref. domains — $750
Gratuitous Type was a professional design publication that was mentioned numerous times in the artistic design world. It was curated by a renowned U.S. designer. The backlink profile is decent, featuring many links from niche-relevant domains. This domain could be repurposed for art, design, DIY, or even marketing niches. View on SerpDomains
3️⃣ WebHostingDay.com
20 years old — 120 ref. domains — $6,900
For the last domain, this one is evergreen. The domain name tells its own story. Back in the glory days of affiliate marketing, web hosting was one of the most prominent niches, with commission rates reaching up to 50%. However, it remains one of the most competitive niches, alongside similar ones like VPNs and crypto. This domain could be a great pick if you are experienced in this niche. View on SerpDomains
🚀 3 Websites For Sale From Brokers
1️⃣ 4-year-old Business Digital Commerce Site making $6,222/mo on Empire Flippers
Digital Commerce — Licensing —42X — $261,310
An interesting UK business that provides certifications and licensing to UK companies. The churn rate is low. They have several commercial partnerships with similar businesses, sharing revenue on a 50/50 basis. These deals are transferable. You will need to set up a UK business entity, as the business uses UK Stripe. The business is quite passive, so any investment in sales or paid ads will likely result in a positive ROI.

2️⃣ 4-year-old Gardening Niche Site making $2,746/mo on Empire Flippers
Display ads — Gardening —35X — $96,103
There is a recent trend of sites that were heavily impacted by the update resurfacing on the market, and this is one of them. The site attracts traffic solely from Bing, DuckDuckGo, and Yahoo. The niche is one of the more popular ones on Pinterest, so if you have experience attracting traffic from Pinterest, this is worth checking out. A 35X multiple is still too high; we wouldn’t go above a 30X multiple for sites that rely solely on alternative organic traffic. View on Empire Flippers
3️⃣ 4-year-old Lead Generation site making $1,751/mo on Flippa
Travel— Live Auction — ($29,950 indicative price)
We always like to see affiliate or lead generation sites in luxury niches. Just a handful of commissions or leads per month can result in thousands in profits. This business operates with a 30% profit margin, which is decent, but with a smart paid ads strategy and effective SEO, the profit margin could increase. The niche is somewhat seasonal.

🚀 2 Off-Market Sites 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:
$790/mo Automotive Niche Site: 8-year-old site earning via Mediavine. It was previously hit by the HCU. The asking price is $30,000. It’s a bit too high, but it’s worth checking out.
$17/mo Finance Niche Site: Another site that was hit by the update. Earning through AdsTerra. Also was hit by the update. Asking price $750.
Note: Linking to individual posts in Facebook groups is currently buggy, so the links may not lead you directly to the listing. Please filter posts by most recent.
