Offering Or Buying A Website
If you want to offering or buying a website, we recommend a healthy dose of skepticism if you are the buyer. All sales have pluses and minuses so try and focus on a combination of many factors. Many “statistics” which sellers offer can either be manipulated or represent half truths.

- My site has high rankings in the major search engines – First, how long have the rankings been in place, how many unique visitors do they generate, and were these rankings obtained in an honest and ethical manner.
