More on the 50 Sites..
by Matt on , under Web Development
If you remember in November last year I unsuccessfully attempted to create 50 sites in 50 days, with each earning $1 a day. I’ve been thinking more about why this failed recently and it’s because each site wasn’t based around a long-tail keyword. Instead most of the sites were band pages which never would’ve got any exposure because of the competitiveness of the band names as phrases in the search engines.
Now if I was to try this again I’d first make sure I was targetting a primary keyword which is easy enough to rank for and which would produce 10-20 visits a day for that phrase alone. Then I’d set about creating a blog with 5-7 pages/posts of unique content, insert the Adsense units and then guage the popularity of the keyphrase by my earnings in the first month. I’d then focus more of my attention on the sites that show promise over time. This is what I’ve been doing so far with Ouijaboard Online, which after a week is earning over $1 a day.
The plan is to create around 10 of these sites over the next month, which can then be developed more if I decide to.
I logged into the Digital Point forums too for the first time in ages over the weekend. Gonna sell off a few of my old sites and acquire 1-2 established sites over the next while.
