Hi Justin,

I have a couple of questions for you:

1- The plug-ins that you mentioned, are they free?
2- Generally spkeaking, you install a word press blog, upload the plug-ins, activate them, enter your keywords and then leave the blog alone?
3- What type of content will the blog build by itself? Is it articles, videos, RSS feeds, any other type of content?
4- Is this content built over a period of time?

Those are the questions that I can think of for the moment.
Thanks
Khal

wolf29 · 08-06-2009, 07:58 PM

Sounds very tempting. I would be interested in the answers to Khal's questions.

trafficguy · 08-06-2009, 09:13 PM

Same here would be interested in the answer to Khal's questions.

Biggy Fat · 08-06-2009, 09:19 PM

Ditto to above.

clbeav · 08-06-2009, 09:27 PM

Justin,

Sounds interesting, but I have a question that kind of plays of khal's question.

What is the amount of money we will be spending in excess to $97 to get this up and running, excluding domain + hosting? Taking into account of things like plugins, themes, etc.

JustinBrooke · 08-06-2009, 10:07 PM

1- The plug-ins that you mentioned, are they free?

Expect to invest about another hundred dollars in
tools to make this system work. Domain, Hosting,
Commercial Plugin's, Premium Theme (optional).

You should make at least $297 with your first sale
so there will be about $80 - $100 profit on your first
and then every other time you do it you'll have 100%
profit.

2- Generally speaking, you install a word press blog, upload the plug-ins, activate them, enter your keywords and then leave the blog alone?

Technically you could do that but it's best if you spend
30 - 45 minutes per week to keep things flowing nicely.

3- What type of content will the blog build by itself? Is it articles, videos, RSS feeds, any other type of content?

It pulls from article sites, video sites, and Answer sites
however their is a new plugin that I just learned of that
will do the same but also pull in amazon reviews and
affiliate links too!

This is some seriously cool stuff and I have a full timer
doing it for me day in and day out now.

4- Is this content built over a period of time?

Yes, the content grows itself just like if you would have
pre-programmed a bunch of articles yourself. Instead it
goes out and does that for you.

Writes itself, submits it self to RSS directories, which gets
it indexed, which gets it ranked, which brings in traffic, which
then clicks on affiliate links, which leads to sales... all by itself!

The video you're buying is cold hard proof that it does all this
and website buyers LOVE automated stuff like this.

Hope that solves your concerns, if not I'll be up early tomorrow
to answer any more questions that come up.

Hi Justin

I see from the title of the WSO that it says that Patrick made over $600 in 48 hours.

Now is that 48 hours from when the auction was opened or 48 hours after he made the blogs?

Did these blogs have traffic and revenue when they were sold?

Cheers

Neil

paulie888 · 08-06-2009, 11:35 PM

Hi Justin,

This looks like a great method for flipping automated blogs. I have a few questions about your method I hope you can answer:

1) From your above answers, it seems like our expense in plugins and themes is a 1-time cost of about $100, and thereafter our only expense would be for new domains (assuming that we already have hosting)?

2) Is your student Patrick able to sell one blog every single day? Is it realistic to be able to sell 5-7 blogs per week using your method consistently, or is this more of a "one-off" method to flip blogs when we need to generate some quick cash that is harder to do consistently for daily income?

3) What are the listing fees? It looks like the site was listed on flippa, so I assume the standard flippa fees would apply? I'm not altogether familiar with the revised fee structure (I've heard they're higher than what sitepoint used to charge), how much would the total listing fees be for a successful listing in the $297 to $397 range? How about for an unsuccessful listing that doesn't sell?

4) What is the average success rate of listings for blogs if we follow your blog creation process to the "T"? Out of 10 blogs listed, how many will realistically sell?

5) I think you have mentioned that we do not need to show any proof of traffic or revenue in order to sell these blogs - please confirm if I'm correct with this assumption?

6) How long do we need to hold on to these blogs before we can sell them? What specific characteristics of the blog are crucial (if traffic and revenue are not needed) for us to show off to the prospective buyers in order to ensure a quick sale?

7) Do you know if Patrick was able to ultimately sell every single blog that he created using your method? Is it realistic to expect to do so?

Thanks,
Paul

Frank Ayres · 08-07-2009, 03:07 AM

You says this is part of your home study course, i have the original one you did is it part of that or a new one?

Just want to make sure that i dont buy the same thing twice?

l

I really don't know the answer to the first question
as Patrick only contacted me each time he sold one
of his sites... not when he built them.

What I do know is that the $600, almost $700 came
in within a 48 hour period. And no these blogs had
zero traffic or revenue.

Yes, once you buy the right tools to get the job done
the only expsenses are domains and listing fee's.

2) Is your student Patrick able to sell one blog every single day? Is it realistic to be able to sell 5-7 blogs per week using your method consistently, or is this more of a "one-off" method to flip blogs when we need to generate some quick cash that is harder to do consistently for daily income?

Patrick is just one of several dozen of my students that
are flipping sites regularly in Flippa.com. Some are doing
blogs, some PLR, some membership sites.

All of the lower level flips like blog flipping should not be
looked at like a business model. It should be seen as
a fundraiser. The real business is when you start getting
into selling sites with revenue for $5,000, $15,000, and more.

However, this method in the WSO above is one of the ways
that my students are able to earn extra money when they
need it... My wife and I used to do this a lot during the holiday
season so we could give our son a great Christmas.

3) What are the listing fees? It looks like the site was listed on flippa, so I assume the standard flippa fees would apply? I'm not altogether familiar with the revised fee structure (I've heard they're higher than what sitepoint used to charge), how much would the total listing fees be for a successful listing in the $297 to $397 range? How about for an unsuccessful listing that doesn't sell?

Listing fee = $19 and their new success fee = 5% (minimum $5)
I know I saw a lot of warriors crying about the change
but point blank Flippa.com has the most attention from
buyers. To "boycott" them would risk your chances of selling.

4) What is the average success rate of listings for blogs if we follow your blog creation process to the "T"? Out of 10 blogs listed, how many will realistically sell?

It would verge on illegal for me to answer this question because
I have no control over the marketplace. I personally have a 90%
track record, I've interviewed sitepoint and they've said that members
who regularly list websites for sale seem to have a 70% success rate.

What yours will be is impossible to say. I could give you a number
and then anything could happen to make me wrong and I could be
in a lot of trouble... I cannot GUARANTEE any site will sell. I can only
guarantee the quality and accuracy of my content

5) I think you have mentioned that we do not need to show any proof of traffic or revenue in order to sell these blogs - please confirm if I'm correct with this assumption?

No traffic and no revenue needed for this method
but if you go the extra mile you'll make much more.
I have students making over $900 per flip with no traffic
and no revenue, but I have others making $4,600, $18,000,
and more selling sites with traffic and revenue

6) How long do we need to hold on to these blogs before we can sell them? What specific characteristics of the blog are crucial (if traffic and revenue are not needed) for us to show off to the prospective buyers in order to ensure a quick sale?

You can sell them almost immediately. Just have to
make sure the plugin has pulled in enough content.

7) Do you know if Patrick was able to ultimately sell every single blog that he created using your method? Is it realistic to expect to do so?

I don't know and it's too early to tell. Patrick is
brand new at this but he is seeing success. From my experiences
though it's not realistic to think EVERY site will sell. Even I myself
only have a 90% success rate and I've been doing this almost 3yrs now.

Thanks,
Paul

Khal · 08-07-2009, 10:58 PM

Hello all

I just finished viewing Justin's video and listening to the audio interview.
Here is my review.

1- I will break the video part into 2 sections:
a) The audio is very good quality, the only thing is that Justin keeps clearing his throat every now and again, forgetting that many people will be listening through their headphones. That was somewhat annoying.

b) The video is of low quality. I would have expected a much better video quality for the price.

2- The audio interview (How To Flip Blogs For $297 - $997) cuts off at 22 minutes and 30 seconds. I'm sure there is more than this, it is just not there. As it stands, I did not get any useful information even after 22 minutes.

3- For the price of $97, I would have liked the option of downloading the video and watching it on my own computer.

4- On the whole, I think it is way over priced.

Sorry Justin, but you could have done a much better job.
Khal

JustinBrooke · 08-07-2009, 11:37 PM

You're 100% right Khal, I didn't hire a professional to
come in and make the video perfect.

It's not a "product" I was creating...

I just sat down, turned on my screen cam, and showed
people the real way I make money online. It's the raw
truth including the and's and um's.

As for the audio cutting out we haven't had this complaint
yet and it will be tested and if anything is wrong it'll be fixed by
the morning.

A simple email would have fixed this problem and sometimes
it's as simple as the computer needing to be restarted or the
page being refreshed.

Every once in awhile we get a complaint for our raw style
and those few are given a refund no questions asked. The
others love our no frills, just the real deal style and they
go on to make a lot more then the price of a refund.

I'm sorry it wasn't for you please email us with any requests
that you have to make your experience better or for a full refund.

We welcome all refund requests however I urge all of you to look
beyond the "cosmetics" of audio quality and TAKE ACTION on what's
being taught...

These videos are not meant to be something you just watch. They
are a tutorial that if followed will make you far more money then the
price it cost you to watch them. Patrick's just getting started and he's
made over 7x the price you're paying... Patrick paid even more!

If there are any other concerns please feel free to email us
at sitefling@gmail.com or call us 800-758-2651 during normal
business hours. Your success is our obsession so please contact
us for anything you need.

JustinBrooke · 08-08-2009, 12:41 AM

Just re-uploaded the audio interview... somehow it did get
chopped in half when we first uploaded it. I just tested it
on 3 of our computers and all 40 minutes are there now.

JustinBrooke · 08-08-2009, 12:53 AM

Just added a link to be able to download the video

and I also added our "Copywriting for Website Flippers" lesson
to make sure you all will know how to write listings that make
website buyers want to buy your sites over anyone elses.

Please email any future requests... We're here to help and make
sure everyone is happy.
