Need to drive website traffic: Buy an existing site?

[mojorisin]

I'm in process of launching a SaaS product. I'm working on how to drive traffic to my site. I've bought and sold webistes in the past.

So why not buy a current site in a similar topic & domain that's getting 10k views a month, cross link references it to my new SaaS product site?

I'm looking at a few for sale that I can cross link (personal finance to personal finance).

Curious if anybody has gone down this path. Thanks!

Sounds like a good plan. I don’t have enough experience with buying websites, but just make sure that the website you are buying is very similar to the Saas you are building.

Also make sure to do your due diligence before buying to prevent any scams.

After buying, I would recommend you to run ads on google, bing and yahoo to get more and more traffic.
