S02E04: Where Can I Find Sites To Purchase?

Continuing along with our Season 2 buyer series, today we’ll look at the various ways and places you can find sites to purchase.

We’ll cover some of the advantages and disadvantages that come with trying to find sites yourself, but we’ll also look at the various aggregators, auction sites, and brokers available.

What works for you might not necessarily work for everyone, but we’re hoping this episode will help you narrow down your search for quality websites and online businesses by pointing you in the right direction.

Having high-quality options will ensure you get a good look at the best sites available and give you a better opportunity to purchase quality sites.
