Hey all :thumbsup:
The short version: About two years ago I sold a site for $1,600 that had been high in the serps for about a month and had already made nearly $300 that month. Anywho, did a short sell as I was brand new to seo and wanted to cash out.
About 2 weeks after selling the buyer contacted me; not happy! He had been building links and the site tanked. Whether that was his fault or mine in building links.. who knows? Time has passed and that domain has expired. I just re-purchased it and gonna give it another go. Ahrefs says it still has about 132 backlinks. Most of what I had "thrown" at it was amit's social links & 1 of stacy's high pr packages.
What is your experiences with buying domains that used to rank high and then dropped rankings? Note: It was not blacklisted -- just dropped way way down in the serps. Any hope?
