What Would I Do With 100K to Invest Online?

closeThis post was published 5 years 2 months 3 days ago. In SEO, things change quickly and this advice might be out of date. Just wanted to let you know before acting on the advice. :)

As we talked about last week, What Would You Do With $100k to Invest Online?

I have been thinking about it, and this would be my idea:

1. Transfer the money to ING Direct. ~5% = $1,000

2. Start shopping for a website in the $50k range that is already established and making $5-6k a month.

3. Buy site and start developing additional features within the site. Spend $10-20k on development.

4. Start marketing the new features of the site with Adwords, link buys, and buzz (social media) marketing.

5. Sell site for $150k in 6-12 months when revenue justifies price.

6. Repeat all steps.

My other ideas include:

1. Buy an old site in a market I can monetize.

2. Hire a link builder. $20,000

3. Hire a linkbait writer.$5-10,000

4. Hire 5 content writers. $10,000

5. Hire article submitter. $1,000

6. Spend $69,000 on arbitrage reinvesting the earnings into #2-5

I think that way would be more fun, but not necessarily as profitable. Any investors want to give it a shot and see if we can get you a 25% return on your money in 6 months?

What would you do with $100,000 to invest online within 3 months?

    Um, where can you find a website for $50k that is making $5-6k per month? It seems that a site with that much revenue is going to sell for much more than $50k since you’d make your initial investment back in 8-10 months.

  2. Michael M says:

    Yes Rick you are right.

    With 100k you could make a great product or many ( for example little gadgets ), and market it with linkbaites.

    Brandon, thanks for providing a few steps on how to make $. This week with the boss finally broke the camel’s back. Where do you find a place to buy existing websites? Most I see are template deals. Where’s a place real web masters like yourself go to offload their websites?

  4. Brandon says:

    Rick, you can find websites selling for 10x revenue at any forum.

    Daniel, my favorite place is Digital Point. Many people like Site Point as well.

    Interesting concept. I would it do like you, because with 100k $ you can make a old site to a good company. But the theory is the theory ;)
