- How are these Flippa alternatives chosen?
- We read 6 round-ups of Flippa alternatives that rank in search, from different publishers, and count how many name each place. A place is listed when at least 2 of them name it, or one does and our own checks confirm enough about it, when it is live, and when it does the same job for a founder as Flippa. A marketplace for selling a business never counts, and on a page about a place to launch, a directory or a review site needs most of the round-ups to name it. A publisher naming its own site does not count, two articles by one publisher count once, and so does our own post. The places named most come first; our recommended score only breaks a tie. Up to 12 are listed. Nobody pays for a place here.
