Buying or selling a website or online business is a major milestone, but the process can be confusing and overwhelming if you’ve never done it before.

However, we know many other types of online businesses fall outside of our target market, and we wanted to provide a comprehensive list of resources so you can find the right option for your unique situation.
This article includes a list of marketplaces, brokers, and aggregators you can use to buy or sell an online business, along with a brief description of each.
