I am new on flippa. I want to know if I can sell on flippa the same website that I bought from flippa several days ago. Is this against the flippa rules?

    I wouldnt see why, but I have never sold on flippa before.

    But it doesnt seem likely, they wouldnt want to lose any business.

    But again, not a flippa guy.

    You can do it; but they'll know you just bought it. Most people who buy on Flippa pretty much look at every single auction in a certain price range, so they'll recognize the site.

    Of course. Naturally you have to show clearly what value you have added to get a higher price. Or if you are selling at a lower price, you have to explain why are you selling it off.

      Yup, there is no reason why you can't sell the website on Flippa again.

      Except:

      Potential buyers will see that it was sold just a few days ago and will want to know why you are selling so soon (it looks very bad).

      You will probably have to sell for much less than you purchased it for, unless you have made some amazing changes in the few days you had the website.

      If you can: Try to keep the website for at least a month before you sell it and try to make some clear changes (like the design). This will allow you to make maximum profit.

    Yes you can! I've actually had quite a few people buy from me and then sell the same site a few months later (at a profit even!)

    Flippa shows how many times it been listed.

    Try and add some value to the site before you sell it. That way you might make a profit.

    You can do it, but as mentioned, the buyers will know. I would hold onto it, add some content, maybe increase traffic and then list it.

    When I've done it, I picked up sites with a lot of unique content that had crummy design and redesigned them and they sold well.

    You can definitely resell sites you've just purchased and if you're good at finding deals you can probably make quite a bit.

    Flippa Sales (especially if you go risky with No Reserve!) are all about eyeballs...how many potentially interested buyers can you get to view your site.

    Let's say you pick up a site that had a high starting bid, had very few views, little action, etc. If you can pick that site up for under market value and drive much more traffic to the listing in the next go-round, you'll probably come out on top.

    Yes you can sell it. But, before you list it again on Flippa you should made some changes on the site like the content, traffic, and earning. Perhaps, you need change the design as well.
