🔦 Promising assets

Another week, another list of promising assets.

Domains with existing authority:

Buying domains with existing authority can give you a head start. Why?

• Constitutionus.com (<$1,700, ends 9/12): Are you into politics? Then this domain can be great for you. >90,000 backlinks at a DR of 68. 🔥

Domains to build a brand on:

Those domains have no authority yet but are great to start something new on.

• GetRipped.com (<$1,700, ends 9/10). Are you planning to launch an online fitness program or something alike?

• PremiumFruit.com (<$200, ends 9/14). How about starting an online fruit delivery service?

Websites to buy:

TheHomeDweller.com
Current Price: $65,000 Views: 1,228 Watchers: 46

What I like:

• Promising niche as owning your home will become more relevant (as I assume that working from home is here to stay).

• Quite a solid SEO profile when it comes to ranking well for quite commercial terms.

• The seller looks credible (with previous ratings on Flippa).

• There are some easy page speed and on-page SEO improvements waiting for you.

What I don’t like:

• Considering the decline in traffic & revenue, valuation is too high. I would aim to buy it for max. $40,000. Interesting that there is already an offer at the current price though.

• The site is suffering from algorithm updates quite heavily and also hit by the cut in Amazon commissions. Have a close look at the backlink profile and dubious links in there. Also, maybe a chance for swapping the affiliate program to a higher paid one?

• Public comments are closed. Why?

🗞 News & interesting finds

• Best resources on buying online businesses? I asked this question in IndieHackers and got some great answers. If you have anything to add, please do so.

• I wrote a new article on how to value a domain name. Did you know that the domain VacationRentals.com was once sold for $35 million? 😲

• How to use data forecasting for SEO (incl. scripts). Amazing article on predicting search volume based on Ahrefs data, written by Patrick Stox!
