Selling Websites? What's Working?

Are people still making money building niche websites and then selling them? For example a while back I know people would build a site from scratch, put 10 or 20 unique niche articles on it and sell it for $199 or so. Is this still a viable method of making money?

    Just wait for American Idol to start and buy the urls of the top 35 peoples names .....put some adsense on there and take all the clicks you can get and then when the top 10 or get decided you sell their websites to them.

    Hope That Helps.

    That's a funny strategy, Jeff, and would probably work, lol.

    We're still building and selling websites and document the process completely on our site. We've also allowed others to build and sell their sites with us, putting them through a vetting process to pre-qualify them and protect our buyers.

    I saw a food site selling on flippa for $500+ with almost nil traffic but it had some good 50 unique content articles

    Check out some of the sites that are actually selling for enough money to make it worth your while. Flipping Enterprises is known for good medium to high-end range quality sites that produce income.

    edit: looks like flipping enterprises is now Website Broker : Internet Businesses for Sale by FE International

    It's a good way to find proven models to duplicate, make somewhat successful and sell for a decent profit.

    Thanks for all the replies. This is helpful. The American Idol one is interesting, that's a good idea.

    How about a site that's not earning anything? For example if I were to build a site this week and then sell it.
