I loved this one “I really did actually have to sit down and read some A-list blogs to work out how this stuff works!” that is what I use the A-list for, learning what they do, and doing what they tell me
BTW, I also signed up, but I might be more interested to sell, rather then to buy… SY

- Online Income – The Secret to Success Is …
LinabelThere was a way to move content from blogger to a self-hosted blog via wordpress.com. Like Lissie says, Google it. In short you will have to do two things, move your content to your new domain AND redirect your old url to your new url. Good luck, SY

Congratulations Lissie, seems you got a new troll commenting here
And one that not even can spell
As for the rest, I think Lissie mentioned occasionally a program called The Keyword Academy, imho the best way to learn how to make money online. And more affordable than all these super-duper internet marketing programs out there. Only drawback, you actually have to work… SY - Online Income – The Secret to Success Is …
Count me into the group of people that are “faced with blank incomprehension every time you are asked what you do for a living?” That is the bit I really don’t like! But, on the other hand, more and more offline acquaintances come now to me and ask me for help to set up their personal or business websites, I only hope that doesn’t develop into a second job
As for the pms / emails, yep, count me in also, I normally don’t answer their questions anymore, instead I fire back a long line of questions similar to yours. If they take the time to answer those, then there is hope for them, if not, I haven’t wasted any time. Sounds harsh? Perhaps… I have wasted too much time in the past answering questions and my advice (or any advice for that mater) never got implemented. There are a lot of theoretical internet marketers out there, that have all the knowledge they need to get started, but that will never make one single dollar or Euro because they never ever started anything. SY - Free On-Page SEO Tutorial – Part 1 What Are My Keywords
Not sure if Scribe SEO is soo happy if you give away the ‘big secrets of SEO’ away for free
Excellent write up as always, I am still looking for the right keyword(s) for my main blog. I think ‘random ramblings’ has too high of a competition and too less of a search volume

Lissie: This may be the very first time I have opted in and actually looked forward to what is coming. Usually it’s like “I really want this thing they’re offering, so I’ll just unsub as soon as the first email comes in”. But, you have me intrigued, bring on the mailouts
I’m in. looking forward to reading it.
Hi Lissie,
Good luck on your ebook about buying a selling websites. I have heard that this can be very lucrative. Especially if you have a skill, SEO, that allows you to rank websites. You can buy the content in one fell swoop and all you have to do is worry about the traffic.
I think this ebook is something that everyone who is interested in internet marketing and making a passive income should have.
Thanks for sharing your expertise.
Holly crap guys some of you really, actually signed up to an evil marketing list
If I have aweber sorted out you should get a pretty email (if you allow html otherwise you will get an unpretty one) with the download link – let me know if doesn’t work for you – I really did actually have to sit down and read some A-list blogs to work out how this stuff works!
I’ve had terrible experiences with selling sites on the “big” markets, this sounds like a great solution. Would people share info via PM or something, thinking this might be a headache to maintain on your end. I’m going to check it out though.
To be honest Janet I am just making this up as I go along. I think the idea is that sites are advertised for sale on the email list (that’s why it had to be a proper list not just a blog) – those that are interested communicate direct with the seller. I’m too lazy to actually do any admin work LOL
Thanks, Lis. I just got this in my mailbox. The first time round, I clicked the wrong link and went to Adobe’s website. I had to re-read the email before I found the right download link.
Anyway, I’m looking forward to some websites I can afford to buy. If only you had learned to do this 3 years ago (and I had found you then as well). Ah well, better late than never
Ah yeah, reading – one of the world’s under-rated skills
If only I had learned keyword research 2 years ago …
I think I like this concept, so clue me in ok?
On this quiet listing, you tell me certain facts like the niche, keywords, traffic, PR but don’t give me the actual URL.
If I like the site, I can buy it based on the facts and not necessarily the URL? Thus, when i buy it, no one really knows that I own it, meaning I can do what I want with it without fear of others knowing exactly what i am doing with it?
is that right?, if so, I like it.
I am thinking I would buy sites based on the PR alone (cuz they have nice soil for growing crops)
AL
Yes Allyn you got it – you are quite smart for a beer blogger! Whether you are interested in PR or indeed the keywords in some areas of the online world discretion is always good.
Worked like a well oiled machine for me, and the book is great, everything a person would want to know to get started. Nice work
Thanks Josh
I’ve just read your eReport Lis and I learnt a lot of interesting and useful information, so thank you! I have never bought a ready made website (yet) as I’ve always developed mine from scratch. I don’t think I could sell any of my sites as I’ve brought them up and nurtured them, with my own blood, sweat and tears (well maybe not the blood). It would be like selling one of my babies!
Caspar unfortunately to do this day people sell their babies, literally! Its a cruel choice but if it brings in enough cash to feed the others… I’m not being totally flippant – but I have over the years bought and sold house for fun and profit. If you can’t distance your self from the assset (house, website) you can’t be totally efficient in this business. Everything I have is potentially for sale (well houses and websites anyways) – its all about the right price.
If you don’t have to sell that’s nice becasue of the ongoing income but if you need a cash injection I talked about plan B here http://lissowerbutts.com/do-you-have-a-plan-b-to-support-your-passive-income-business/
Have signed up! I haven’t tried this before so hopefully I’ll get a lot out of this.
yeah i’m in …i want these mail outs too ^.^

Hi Hospitalera – its been quiet around here without you
I hope you are joking about doing what the A-listers tell you. That is unless you actually want to launch a real published book, a speaking career or something similar. I don’t want or need the fame – just the money and problogger et al ain’t telling anyone how to do that

Never blog without sufficient coffee!
ROFL! So true, coffee and a spellcker, the two most important blogging tools

Congratulations and Good luck on your first e-book about Buying and Selling Websites.
Yes, I agree; depending on your skills it can be very lucrative.
Hey Lissie – seems very enterprising of you to do this! Hope it’s a go-er!
BTW your link anchor is unflatteringly mis-spelled on Shankers DO-Follow list
Cheers – Rhys
Hi Lissie, – I actually signed up for something ! I hope it’s good with lots of pics. ’cause as I get older my brain gets stupider and I’m reverting to picture books. I blame the Internet and all those pics and videos it forces me to look at
– btw want to know what gets $9 clicks ? see my evil link. On another note I see your best month was in July, mine was too since then it’s been downhill all the way. Maybe a pattern ? Congratulations on the ebook – I might even write a review ! And good luck with the move. VicW
And determining the value of the site to sell?
