OK, I've got 5 more sites all set up and active. They are #11-15 in my 100 sites in 6 months challenge. I got a bit behind schedule this past week because I got sick on Wed. and I had some other issues at my full-time job. I knew going into this that it would happen occasionally, which is why I set the goal at 6 months. I will have sites #16-20 all set up by Monday night. The domains are purchased and DNS servers pointing to the right locations. Just have to change the config files in the...

I struck gold! YEEEE-HAWWWW! OK, so every week I take a day or so to research keywords for ideas on new sites to build and market. Usually it's on Wed. or Thurs. so I have time to pick 5, figure out domain names, register them, and have them propagate in time to build the sites and have them show to the public by the following Monday morning. Well, so I'm trudging through the keyword mountains and pastoral valleys this morning, and there it was. I found one of those big 'ol chunks of gold you...

Ahh, the sweet taste of victory! One of my first sites in my 100 sites in 6 months challenge earned $12 yesterday. It's starting to get good steady traffic now, too, from improving search engine rankings. I know I won't get these kinds of results from all 100 sites, but it's fun to imagine what I'd do with $1200 a freaking DAY! What is that?... $36,000 a month? $438,000 a year? That's a good start. LOL

Yeah, I know, but I think it's important to dream big in this business....

OK, it's Friday (TGIF!). That means I have 5 more sites in the pipeline to go up this weekend. Talk about all over the board... the topics go from carpet cleaning to birthday parties. Wait, I guess if you had a particularly raucous birthday party, you'd need to clean your carpet. HA! That's why I make the big bucks, people. Well, someday. When you'll all call me Emperor or Grand Poobah or whatever. But I digress.

I've decided to tone down the link building for my brand new...

Happy Easter, all. It's a working Easter for me, but I'm in "the zone," so it doesn't feel like work. I have 2 more sites to put up today to finish the 5 total that I had scheduled to be up by weekend's end. No problem.

OK, here's a tip for any of you using AdSense on sites where you just aren't making very much per click. I have a site that earns a ridiculous 4 or 5 cents per click. That's the average. Sometimes it's as low as 1 freaking cent! Made me mad, so I...
