Buy a website for under $2,000
Small websites and side projects are the easiest way to own an online business without a big budget. For under $2,000 you can find blogs, niche tools, landing pages with a waiting list and early-stage apps that a maker no longer has time for.
At this price most projects have little or no revenue. You are buying a head start: a domain, a design, content and code that would take weeks to build yourself. Price it on what it would cost you to rebuild, not on hopes about future income.
What to check before you buy
- Check the domain age and history (for example in the Wayback Machine) for spam or penalties.
- Ask for Google Search Console or analytics access if traffic is mentioned.
- Make sure content is original — paste a few sentences into a search engine.
- Ask why the seller is selling and how many hours a week the site needs.
- Estimate what it would cost you to build the same thing; that is your price ceiling.
Handover checklist
- Full source code in a private repository transferred to your account (not a zip sent by email).
- Domain transferred at the registrar, with the auth code delivered only after payment clears.
- Hosting, database and any third-party accounts (Stripe, email provider, analytics) moved or re-created in your name.
- Environment variables and API keys rotated after handover so the seller no longer has access.
- A short written walkthrough or recorded call covering deployment and the main parts of the code.
