If you want to maximize your income and minimize your effort then you need to connect multiple sites among a number of different niche markets. These sites can pay off some great dividends for you in just a short amount of time. For example if you have 30 sites and each of these manages to pull in $2 a day then you have a nice little income of $1800 a month. Even if your sites only grab you a single $1 a day, that is still $900 a month for doing what? Blogging, that's what.
50 sites earning $2 each per day will generate $3000 per month in income and this is nothing to be sneezed at. This total does not even count any of the income that is being earned through the affiliate links that you are connected with. Sites that are promoting other affiliate links through Adsense or Clickbank are likely earning even more income than the $1-2 per day that we are using in these examples. If you can get 30 sites to generate just $5 each per day that means you have $150 coming into your bank account on a daily basis which equals $1050 a week or more than $52K per year. Is blogging beginning to look better by the moment? You better believe it. Think of what you could do with this kind of additional pocket change.
Ok, sure it looks good, but maybe you are still concerned about trying to get 30-50 sites up and running. Not only that, you have to maintain them, so just how much work is that? I hear what you are saying, but you can get some software programs now that let you build your sites in a few easy steps and the rest is just automatic so all you have to do is "set and forget". Besides, once these sites start depositing big bucks into your checking account you can pay someone to do the grunt work for you.
