I had a Wild Ass Idea- After reading One Dollar A Day’s post on his successful flip (and his Secure Delivery mention in his Sitepoint listing) I started thinking. How about offering pre-paid keys that site flippers can buy to include with the sites they put up for sale. Instead of offering a completed site, the site flippers would offer a complete sales solution that includes the sales site, automatic product delivery, and built in affiliate management (coming in the next update).
Pre-Paid keys would be sold at a deeply discounted rate for perhaps 6 or 12 month intervals. They might even be a special account class, like 3 products with all pro features, just for flipper sites. That would give the buyer enough product slots for the product site they are buying as well as a couple more slots to try new things out later.
The flipper would include the key and a special signup URL with the site being delivered. The buyer would go to the special signup URL, enter their key, and the product would be pre-uploaded and ready to go.
Good idea? Bad idea? Would anyone buy it?
I think it’s a great idea to be able to make that kind of transaction a bit easier for both the buyer and seller.
As an example, I’m thinking along the lines of a central admin page on the website being sold where the new owner can enter their Amazon affiliate ID, AdSense Publisher ID, the supplied Secure Delivery key, etc.
I think it’s a winner.
Certainly sounds like a great idea to me :)
This could be a cool ideas. Why not give it a try?
