Launched in 2010, this leading low-calorie recipe site has been helping millions lose weight. It boasts an impressive content library of 1,261 published recipes with an additional 120 unpublished posts ready for deployment.

With a domain rating of 51 and premium mainstream media recognition from The Today Show and The Doctors and endorsement from the surgeon general, the site maintains strong search authority.

Currently generating 40,000–50,000 monthly pageviews with seasonal spikes reaching 100,000–200,000 during peak periods (New Year’s to Easter), the site captures the complete customer journey from initial weight-loss goals to long-term lifestyle maintenance. This is the opposite of most recipe sites, which tend to peak in Q4.

There are 7K highly engaged email subscribers with click rates of 1,000–2,000 per email. Their social media presence is particularly impressive, with a 267K-member Facebook community generating exceptional engagement through weekly meal plans and interactive content.

The business is fully remote, operated by a single owner who works only 5 hours per week. It is a great add-on for someone already in the Content or Recipe/Cooking spaces or someone looking to build something on the side.
**Cash buyers will be given preference, along with buyers who can perform due diligence efficiently and quickly.

Launched in June 2020, this beautiful dessert website has delighted millions of visitors and evolved beyond the traditional food blog model since its inception. Created by a professionally trained pastry chef with 15 years of corporate experience, this site has established authority in the Baking niche while strategically expanding into broader food content.

The business generates revenue through multiple diversified channels, unlike typical food blogs relying solely on display advertising. It has developed direct content syndication partnerships with MSN (2.3 million TTM pageviews), Yahoo (over one million TTM pageviews), and Newsbreak, reaching millions of readers monthly and creating both direct revenue and valuable referral traffic. There is a large reach via social media, too, with (143K followers) and Pinterest (45K followers and 3.2M monthly views).

With over 1,000 published articles and a domain rating of 49 (Ahrefs), the site attracts 541K monthly pageviews and 239K unique visitors (Google Analytics), plus substantial syndication traffic. The business maintains 40,000 email subscribers with open rates of over 30% and ranks for 50,500 keywords, often outranking larger competitors.

Operations require only 14–15 hours per week, supported by two writers and one virtual assistant. Revenue streams include display advertising (Mediavine), content syndication, ebooks, and Amazon affiliate commissions. While Google sessions decreased 21% year-over-year, overall business revenue has grown significantly due to successful diversification efforts, demonstrating resilience and substantial untapped growth potential in affiliate marketing, brand partnerships, and digital products.

This is a fully remote business and not SBA-financeable. **Cash buyers will be given preference.

Started in 2011, this content business has grown into one of the most trusted destinations for adventure seekers, offering insights on places to go, what to do, and how to best prepare for trips.

It holds high authority in Google and has been featured in some of the web’s largest publications. Most of its revenue comes from affiliate sales related to luggage and backpacks.

With this business, a buyer knowledgeable in SEO, social media strategy, or email marketing has the opportunity to convert a love of travel into revenue. Additionally, a buyer who already sells their own brand of travel gear would gain an immediate, powerful, and high-converting sales channel.

The content is currently written by one freelance writer, with a cadence of approximately 10 pieces per month. Increasing this output is a potential opportunity for growth. All of the business’s social media accounts have been dormant since the COVID-19 pandemic and are now ready to be rebooted, particularly the Instagram account with 56,000 followers. An email list of 10,000 subscribers has never been utilized, and growth has been limited to a sign-up box in the footer. A push for email sign-ups, potentially with an automated “backpack finder” or some other gamified survey, could increase revenue with a well-written drip campaign.

A new owner could also scale Google Ads to high-converting pages, do targeted outreach for more sponsored posts, and source a product to sell via Amazon. There are multiple opportunities to choose from based on your strengths and preferences.

The seller has run the website for 14 years and feels like it’s in the perfect position for someone else to take over. He is ready to take a break and then focus his efforts on other ventures. All processes and templates are in place to scale. A new owner could learn how to run the business in one month.

Established in 2019, this SBA pre-qualified business provides digital CNA (certified nursing assistant) test prep through comprehensive practice tests, flash cards, and lesson reviews to certification candidates nationwide. Founded after witnessing severe understaffing at his grandfather’s Alzheimer’s care facility, the owner created this business to help bridge the CNA-shortage gap by supporting students through certification exams.

The business dominates a profitable niche that larger competitors ignore because they focus on higher-value NCLEX nursing programs, dismissing CNA prep as “low-ticket.” This blind spot allowed the founder to fill the gap with quality content and strong SEO, creating exceptional results without direct competition.

This positioning has produced remarkable performance: $274K in revenue with 29% year-over-year growth, serving 350–400 active subscribers with a 26.57% historical conversion rate from over 6,200 free trials. The business operates on zero customer acquisition costs while generating $74 in average customer value.

Traffic dominance comes from organic authority built over years: 44,000 monthly users with 71% from Google organic search, equating to 31,000 organic visitors monthly. The complementary 93,000-subscriber YouTube channel generates 130,000 monthly views, providing both traffic and additional revenue streams.

The Healthcare Education sector provides recession-proof demand fundamentals. Post-COVID healthcare worker shortages have intensified CNA demand, with students increasingly willing to use online preparation tools. Revenue patterns remain stable year-round with only minor holiday fluctuations, demonstrating the essential nature of certification services.

Built on quality, human-written content, the platform has remained unaffected by Google algorithm updates that devastated AI-content competitors. Custom-developed plugins eliminated subscription fees, improving strong profit margins while creating competitive advantages.

Clear growth opportunities exist through proven channels. B2B school partnerships could double revenue, as even 10 partnerships would add hundreds of students monthly. Schools enroll 30–40 students every six weeks, creating predictable recurring revenue. Paid advertising remains untested despite strong organic success, while expanding HESI A2 test prep serves CNAs progressing toward nursing school. Validated inbound inquiries represent additional low-risk expansion paths.

The business requires minimal oversight—just 3–5 hours monthly for basic maintenance. The owner is selling to focus on scaling his medical product business and developing management skills with his growing team. The streamlined transition requires less than a week, with 40 hours of seller training provided, making this ideal for buyers seeking immediate returns with significant upside potential.

Launched in 2009, this WordPress food blog has over 1,700 pieces of content focused on easy, family-friendly recipes.

The website receives nearly 1,000,000 pageviews per month (over 11,600,000 in the last 12 months), and a strong domain authority helps the website rank for a broad range of keywords. The best results come from targeting lower-competition keywords; a new owner could continue with this strategy.

The owner only works 15–20 hours per week on the business, thanks in large part to the four contractors who help write posts, publish content on social media, create photos and videos, create e-books, and manage MSN. Additionally, three firms help with email marketing, Pinterest management, and website maintenance and development. A new owner can continue outsourcing to further reduce the time spent on the business or step into the same role the current owner has: planning out future content, testing recipes, identifying old content to update, and general business management activities.

The owner acquired this business from the original founder a little over three years ago through Quiet Light. She has been able to grow the business to roughly 25% above the level it was acquired at while reducing the number of hours she works. The business is set up for a new owner to take over at this point.

The owner has built a place in Florida and is looking to sell this business to reduce the overall time she spends working and to semi-retire. After the sale, she will continue to work part-time and run another unrelated blog she founded in 2009.

SBA Note: Yes, this business is available for SBA buyers. The owner originally acquired it with an SBA loan.

In 1999, the cofounder of this business launched a portal for virtual assistants. She is widely credited as the founder of the Virtual Assistance industry. Through the original form of the business, the sellers recognized the growing demand for remote work and responded by launching this content business in 2006. It was a huge strategic shift, but for the last 20 years, the sellers have been helping people find legitimate, home-based jobs and freelance opportunities.

With this business, a buyer has the opportunity to take over a website with 20 years of reputation and history and supercharge its earnings and reach through obvious monetization improvements and a well-planned growth strategy.

Ninety-six percent of website visitors are located in the United States. The target market includes anyone exploring or actively seeking remote work options. This broad demographic encompasses stay-at-home and homeschooling parents, “trailing spouses” of US military personnel, retirees, caregivers, individuals with disabilities, Millennials, Gen Xers, and more.

The site has a long history of revenue streams coming primarily from Google AdSense (50%), direct ads for hiring companies (20%), and affiliate marketing advertisements (30%).

The sellers are ready to retire and have cut their hours to part-time over the last several years. These cuts have impacted revenue. They believe a new owner who is willing to hire a small staff or work more could see significant gains in four areas. First, they could add a premium ad network like Raptive or Mediavine. In most cases, these networks will perform much better than AdSense alone. Second, they could push into new markets. Specifically, they believe Spanish-English bilinguals and Canadians would be an excellent place to start. Third, they could segment their massive 270K email list. Finally, they could explore paid advertising on social media. Their massive audience on those platforms is 100% organic.

Established in 2013, this company has evolved into one of the world’s best-known travel blogs with a loyal global audience and proven revenue-generating power. This top-tier travel brand presents a unique opportunity to acquire an established digital asset with industry-leading affiliate commission structures and multiple unexplored revenue streams, offering impressive growth potential for a new owner to capitalize upon.

The business has secured exclusive affiliate partnerships that provide substantial competitive advantages, including higher-than-industry-standard commission structures with many affiliates, such as Booking.com and REI, and rare access to Airbnb’s affiliate program, which is extremely difficult to obtain. These superior commission structures, developed over years of relationship-building, transfer completely to the new owner and represent millions of dollars in negotiated value.

With a domain rating of 70 and premium backlinks from BBC, National Geographic, Harvard.edu, and other major publications, the site maintains strong search authority.

The acquisition includes a seasoned 14-person team led by six veteran employees and over 200 comprehensive standard operating procedures. The current owner works less than 5 hours per week. After being involved with the business for over a decade, the founder is ready to move on to his dream project of opening a free-diving retreat center, which the funds from this sale will help achieve.

High 75% profit margins provide a solid foundation for growth. The site’s strong brand recognition creates a huge audience to monetize from in a variety of different ways leading to specialized opportunities based on a buyer’s resources and strategic pursuits. This opens doors for product development, increasing the bookings of specific properties, expanded monetization through sponsored content, the relaunch of successful tour operations, and more.

Please note that this company is not SBA eligible due to no US based tax returns. No financing available.
