I am baffled by the last several buyers of websites that I have sold. They pay the full price, then do nothing.

      Preferable to the high-maintenance types, lol, but still baffling.

      A mix -- niche article sites, online malls, digital product sites, recipe sites (eg roomfordessertpastries.com).
