This means that you buy an undervalued site, build up a visitor audience and then sell the site while there&#8217;s still a high number of visitors. (sell it while it\u2019s \u201chot\u201d).<\/p>\n<p>Websites that are often used for burger-flipping, are websites which mainly focus on a niche audience, for example, the growers of bonsai trees, people who are interested in bird cages, and so on.<\/p>\n<p>According to Gene Alvarez, vice president of technology consulting firm Gartner, the ads are responsible for the success of such sites. &#8220;Advertisers want to work very targeted,&#8221; says Alvarez. \u201cA site that is specifically directed at their target audience, is a great gift.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, burger-flipping has already become a new form of entrepreneurship in the US. And a cheap one too. All you need is a computer and software. In addition you must sell your site with a lot of enthusiasm to some advertisers.
