Last year I made about $60k in revenue buying and building websites by exploiting what was a fairly untalked about strategy among travel bloggers for quite some time.

In the process, I probably invested less than $5k.

I’d like to share that story here because I think it makes for an interesting case study.

Now, full disclosure, in recent months I have moved away from this strategy altogether.

Or perhaps to be more exact – it has moved away from me.

A lot of the opportunity I was exploiting has largely dissipated on account of various exogenous factors plus the market getting entirely flooded.

Too many people started buying these types of websites, which drove the prices up, while at the same time Google penalized some very prominent sites in the industry, which drove demand down.

In short, you were spending more money to make less and eventually I decided to move on to other projects.
