Crazy to see how much these sites are going for... I'm always interested in finding some niche sites for sale but Flippa always seemed so..spammy to me. It seems like all of the sites on there are for article writing/spinning, reverse telephone look up, link building, spyware removal or some other cheesy, no value-added type of site. I'm sure people are making money on them but I just don't feel comfortable adding another one of those sites to the internet... maybe it's just me.

- kls 15y agoCrazy to see how much these sites are going for. If you look at the time it took to sell the numbers are actually pretty dismal depending on how much effort and money the owner put into the sites. But for me and the time I spend on projects 30k over 8 months or $200k over 6 years is a horrible return for efforts. That being said, I build very custom web-apps where these may be build a site and get traffic kind of sites.
