Flipping Websites Is The Newest SEM Craze

OK so Ive been making a living on the Internet full time for many years now. Ive seen almost everything so I thought.
As someone who has built many websites I understand how a crappy looking site does online. Not good!
Man I remember when BANS first came out. I built some of the worst looking websites with that script. Don't get me wrong I love Build A Niche Store. The developers taught me more than you could know. Probably the best thing I ever did.
But anyway back to this new craze on the web Site Flipping. I have tried to flip sites in the past, but had a hard time finding places to sell then with ease. You know moving the file, domain name, changing the WHOIS listing on Site Point and so on.
I know people who have been doing this website flipping thing for years. They make a ton of money selling sites. The only thing is they are experts in many web fields like Wed Design, HTML, Graphics and so much more. You know the kind of people who code wordpress plugins and the like.
Well the other day I came across this new e learning system made just for this new craze called Site Flipping.
Actually the Home learning course hasn't even been released yet. The Launch is at the end of June. As I was reading some of the pre launch documentation that was released early it looks very promising for me.
What is it? It's a learn How to Flip Websites Code E Learning System. The two guy's developing the e learning course have been around for some time just like me and I have used products they have developed in the past.
What I think I'm going to do is flip my own websites with this e learning for The Site flipping Code
I have so many websites just sitting not making any money what do I have to lose?
The developers are starting to give out free e learning books and videos leading up to the launch day. From what Ive seen just using the free e books and reports will make me better off than I was before.
I guess I'm jumping on the bandwagon early. I suggest anyone else interested in making some cash off of flipping sites to give it a try. Why not most of the materials are free.

Release Of Search and Sitemap Study Is A Gold Mine

In the world of niche marketing we are always looking for information to help understand how search engines work. I always say go strait to the source. Google and sometimes Yahoo. Most webmasters would agree Google is king.
Google has provided one of the most important papers or study we have see in sometime. Its called, Sitemaps: Above and Beyond the Crawl of Duty by Uri Shonfeld. Uri presented his summer internship work studying Sitemaps from a coverage and freshness perspective. He presented the study at at the WWW'09 conference in Madrid Spain.
This study clearly shows how search engines follow site maps and other links on a site. It is so in depth every Web Master will learn something.
Search Engines are looking for certain things within a website and Niche Store Builders need to give it to them. Keeping websites fresh is a important part of this.
Search Engines need more than just being feed keywords these days. SE's are looking for fresh relevant content that is constantly changing and being updated.
If we look at the trends we all see social networking taking over. For example MySpace, Twitter and Facebook. These site are showing up in my stats more and more as backlinks. This tells us SE's are putting priority on these sites that update with fresh content constantly.
By setting up sitemaps and robot.txt files properly we can increase traffic and conversion should increase aswell.
After you read Uri's work you will have new perspective of how search engines work and how sitemaps influence them.
