Blog Consulting presents – Ten Websites for Ten Dollars a Year – Part 1
ByOften times people find their way to this blog consulting site because they are trying to figure out if they can actually make some money on the Internet. The answer is yes and maybe. There are people who are making a lot of money on the Internet. There are some people who make a little bit of money on the Internet, and there are some people who don’t make any money and actually lose money by giving it to the people who are making money.
If you are thinking that you should be able to make a lot of quick easy money on the Internet, you need some blog consulting, because you are wrong. If you would like to start your own business, that you work at part time and start by making a little bit of money that eventually develops into more money, then the Internet might be a good fit for you. There are actually a quite a few ways to make money. You can use Adsense from Google to monetize your site with other peoples ads. You get paid for clicks from those ads. Some clicks are worth two or three cents, while others can be worth one, two, or three dollars. For Adsense to be really effective you have to have a lot of traffic on your website. You can get involved in affiliate programs where you recommend products or services from your blog and you get paid by the sale or by the click. Again traffic is important. You can also sell advertising space on your blog once it is developed.
One approach to consider, is to start a lot of websites that make a little bit of money. If you can get a website online in a short period of time, that doesn’t require a lot of maintenance, that makes you fifty cents or a dollar a day, that doesn’t seem like much. But what if as you got used to starting blogs you realized that you could get a site up and running in a couple of hours. That you could easily get five new sites started every week, and if each site could make you a dollar a day, by the time you got a hundred websites running you could start making a reasonable income. You could then further develop the sites that capture the most organic traffic and turn them in to more significant income producers.
In this series of articles I will outline for you how to get blogs started for very little money, just like the title implies, ten websites for ten dollars a year. If those ten websites can make you ten dollars a day, then you have a good start. You can keep adding ten websites for ten dollars a year and over time develop a nice steady income. Each site will only cost you a dollar a year, so you can start an unlimited number of sites. In our next article in the series we will start laying the groundwork for the first ten blogs/websites.

Interesting article and I will be in interested in seeing how this develops. I agree with you that to make mooney on Adsense you do need volumes of people visiting to make it worth while and in some markets the income per click has dropped due to the economic situation.
Blogging has certainly grown in popularity and Google will often put blogs higher up the search engine results for the same keywords so sees the content as very relevant.

Hi Steve,
I visited your website so you already know the importance of traffic on your website. I know that some people make a lot of money with adsense but I think more people will do better with affiliate programs over the long haul. By starting a number of sites, people have more options. Like not putting all your eggs in one basket. I hope to help people develop successful blogs and maybe some of them will be helped by your system as well! Thanks for commenting.

Making money with Adsense it’s becoming harder and harder. Couple of years ago, Adsense program was really hot
Nowdays, affiliate earnings are much more rewarding. More and more publishers go into CPA networks everyday. Adsense is paying penny per clicks .. Too bad .. I actually enjoyed it while it lasted.

I agree with you about the affiliate sales. The idea behind these sites is that even if adsense is only paying pennies a click, if you enough sites you can still do well. Then the affiliate sales are gravy.
