Creating Ten Content Sites With a Budget of Two Hundred and Fifty Dollars

Making Money Online

The following post is going to be a step by step post on how you can create ten content sites with a budget of only $250.  Now, you may be asking yourself why you’d want to create ten content sites.  A lot of ways that people make money is instead of building up one huge site to make thousands of dollars, they make a ton of small sites that make only a few dollars a day.  There are people out there that own hundreds of these little sites that make a few dollars a day.

So, how do you make ten of them on a limited budget of, say, two hundred and fifty dollars?  You’re going to find cheap domain names and then you’re going to find cheap content.  The content does not need to be exceptional like it would need to be on a blog like this.  The content just needs to be good enough with the right keywords that the ads show that pay the good amount.  So, here’s where you begin!

You’ll need to find a coupon that takes a nice bulk off of your orders of domain names.  So, find a company that gives the best coupon and then order all ten domain names in bulk.  So, we’re looking at about $10 a domain name.  I use GoDaddy and there’s a coupon (catalog1) that takes $20 off a bill over $75.  So, you’ll spend a total of $100 and then take $20 off.  So, for eighty dollars, you’re getting ten domains.  I’m going to assume that you already have hosting, but if not, go ahead and throw in another $10 and get some host gator hosting.  Cool. So, now you have spent $90.  That leaves you with $160.

Now, don’t waste your time writing the content.  Go to Digital Point and find one of the writers that is willing to write a 300 word article for $1.50.  I know, it’s really chump change, but there are writers willing to work for that and, since you’re going to contract only one or two, they’ll like it because the bulk rate is good.  So, you’re going to order $150 worth of content from people and they’ll jump to write it.  Now comes the actual sites.

Use WordPress for your sites.  Creating custom content sites is really not that great honestly because they take time and if you don’t know HTML, you’re screwed.  If you want a good template to use, I suggest (and it’s only a suggestion) these themes created by a friend of mine.  The way she makes her money is the way I am describing and these themes are months and months of research of good places for ads that gets clicked most.  So, this will definitely help.  If you don’t like them, try and find something a bit more custom to the actual site topic.

So, you have ten dollars left over.  If you want, throw it in to one of your content writers as a bonus to keep him or her happy.  You can do whatever you want really.  In the end, what you are looking at are ten different content sites on ten different topics that all are going to start earning you money.  And, the truth is, you did no work until the final part and this is where it gets a little more difficult.  As each set of ten articles is finished and put on the web, start building links and try ranking on Google.

When push comes to shove, I don’t particularly like this style of making money because I like the idea of owning something big that really makes a difference such as this blog.  But, regardless, this is a real way to make money online and it is proven to work.  So, go ahead and try it out.  If you’ve got the $200, get the sites made and try to make your few dollars a day.  Think of it this way…If each site makes $1 a day, that’s $30 a month.  Each site only cost you $25 to make.  So, by the end of the first month, you’ve made a profit of $5.  But, you can definitely push the site to making $5 a day and hell, try for $10.  But, $5 is a definite possibility.

If it works, let me know.  I’d love to hear a success story of one of my tips making you a ton of money.  Tomorrow, I’ll give you some tips on what you can do to promote the site in the right way and a way, if you want, to really grow the sites and make them go to perhaps a $50 a day website.  Now THAT is a profit, huh?  Stay tuned.
