This method takes about three months to fully build up. (Lets say about 100 days to be on the safe side). Now as the Cashquest blog already pointed out, if you want to sell a blog for $900 dollars, the general rule of thumb is that the blog must be making a monthly revenue of $90. I agree with this estimate as this is what the general market trend shows. Most people would be willing to pay about 10 times over if they know that they can make up the outset and at least get some profit within the year.
Cashquests wrote the original posts, and I have made some modifications to it so that its would be possible to earn as much as $5000.

(oh yeah, just in case I forget, all you bloggers out there can get free advertising for your blog, and linkback too. just head HERE and add your link. All links are moderated so you need not worry about spam. Put up a short post on your own blogs linking back to it. The more people here about it, the faster it spreads, and the more clicks you are going to get from it. No need for any silly widgets to be displayed or anything. PLUS its free.=)....right...as I was saying)

Thus, you will obviously need to have 5 (5 x $900 - if you feel this is too much, then hey go for 4 x $900 ) blogs running simultaneously. Now, this may seem like a daunting task, but I can assure you, for a person who spends a lot of time blogging, it's very easily done. You just need to balance out the posts on all the blogs. For those of you that want to know how I sort out the excessive number of posts per day, I will explain it in full further down in the post.Lets get to it..

1. You will make 5 new blogs per month. Therefore, by the end of the month, you will be having to put out about 30 posts per day across 15 blogs. Not as difficult as it seems (I hope that you will bear with me) as I will tell you how this can be done in under 2-3 hours a day. I will explain further on how to overcome this obstacle of writing up that many posts per day.

2. Blogger blogs are okay, but it is obviously better if you get a proper .com domain. Hosting is pretty cheap these days and you can host multiple database accounts on one server (if you get a good server).

3. Text Link Ads - sell it not for $1 but instead sell it for $2 (times 10 links). Money Made = $20.

4. 125x125 Banner Ads - Set up 6 and sell for $5. Money Made = $30.

5. PayPerPost - This will be your most guaranteed money maker. You will only have to make 1 post per week per blog. Money Made = $20.

6. Feed Ads - Like the man said, if you post on a regular basis, you will make money. Sell your space for $10. Money Made = $10.

7. 480x60 Top Banner - Placed at the top of your site next to the header, this is a prime piece of advertising space and you’re going to guarantee it’s sale by selling it for just $10 per month. Money Made = $10

8. Grand total = $90/month.

9. Ok good, so that's the first blog. There are a few reason's why I changed Cahsquests method, and I will discuss them in a bit. Next part is obviously multiplying that by 5 blogs.

10. How do we do that?A few ideas include:

• Easy niches...i.e. some blogs only have pictures to them... or videos (no actual posts)
• Content Rewriters - sneaky and i'm not a personal fan
• Do it the hard way.

11. So you're going to need to put in 1 or 2 posts a day per blog. Easy you say. Yeah...for the first month or so. But understand that you will once again be buying 5 more blogs in month 2 and another 5 in month 3. Therefore 30 posts. Yes it will be a pretty much full time job. Unless you use content rewriters or have niche such as a picture blog - i.e. Flickrdreams. (probably takes him 5minutes a day to do 5 days worth of posts hehe)

12. Once you hit the obligatory 90 day mark, you can sell the blog. By this time, you would have generated enough blogs to propagate the system.

And there you have it.

Further strengths:

1. You can link all the blogs together (if you the posts are connected, thereby speeding up linking processes etc and traffic generation)

2. Easy to set up linkbait from one blog, to the next, to the next - We shall call it AnthonyJudeLawrence Chain Blog Linking *smirks*

3. The reason that the TLA price was raised from $1(original Cashquest form) to $2 (my version) was so that we could lower the posting frequency.

4. People tend to think of blogs being for selling in such traditional terms. I.e. You post about "how to make money" on a blog until it matures enough, then you sell it. Blogs, for the most part, are exceptionally versatile platforms. Even if you did not want to go for a Flickrdreams type site, you could easily try something like PostSecret or another one of those thousands of sites out there which actively INVITE people to post on their blogs.
Weaknesses:

1. You'll be absolutely exhausted with a 30 post/day output. However, if you are considering doing the Flickrdreams type blog, you can always outsource to a randy teenager who will probably do it for you for free! I mean which adolescent male out there wouldnt want to have a license to look up nekkid women! *grins*

2. Can you guys think of any others?

Viability:

This idea seems relatively viable and it seems like it may be carried out with relative ease (for those of you that are willing to put in the time.

Advanced ideas:

1. API mashups to pull in data from Flickr or any one of those media aggregators!
2. Use Social bookmarking to get more traffic (and therefore backlinks to your blogs in that 90 day period) - use Sociable and AutoSocial Poster

3. Enhance SEO so that you garner the best possible results at the 90 day period.

I hope that you guys enjoyed reading about this idea... if you have not already done so, please grab my Full Feed RSS so that you can get great articles like this direct to your Feedreader! Oh and for those of you that want free advertising, please feel free to add your blog to the Free Million Blog Page. Then all you have to do is to write up a short article to give your link there some publicity. The more people that add themselves to the page, the more popular it'll get, and the more traffic you will get! Cool huh!

Im confused.. why would anyone even pay for links on a brand new blog?

Why would anyone buy banner space on a brand new blog?

true...you need some traffic going to your blog to sell links and advertising space....

also PPP has a blog criteria of acceptable blogs....i believe it had to be 3 months of blog activity and post can't be more than 1 month apart....not sure but thats what i remember

it's possible but it will take longer than 100 days...

I like your post, in fact, I'm considering +repping it for helping the newbies out a bit. But I gotta say, there's some definite ways to speed this up.

My first thought, head over to digitalpoint marketplace, dnforum.com, or namepros. Look for sites on the cheap that have PR2+ with static (old) pages. Make sure the sites you want are in the niche you want to focus on.

Now, setup a blog on that purchased site. If the previous site had anything worth keeping, save the text and post them as blog posts. Perhaps rewrite it a little bit, split it into multiple posts, etc. The point is, there's no reason to throw out text you can reuse.

Now you've got a site that google already knows about, a PR2+ can get you $10 links, and already, you'll be making more from the first month forward. Now if you want to flip it in 3 months, go for it. For me though, I'd rather buy 10 sites, network them together, let them feed off each other, increase rank and traffic, then unlink all the sites after 6 months and start selling the sites for 20x+ you paid in 6 months or so. I've been lucky a few times and was able to sell a site for 1000x purchase price in 6 months.

People have said it before and I'll say it again. It's better to buy sites than to start new ones. The more I do it, the more I realize how right they are.

Now THIS post is worth useless rep!

Believe it or not, I see people all the time on DP buying links on PR0 or PRFAKED sites all of the time. You just need to go where the idiots are. Idiots buy anything if you hype it right. LOL.

This forum? No way in hell would those links sell. DP, shitepoint, wussyforum, oh hell yes. Haha

razorboy

I'll ask the real stupid question........who do you propose is buying these blogs

bubbles

for the 125x125 ads, is there somewhere like TLA that will sell those for you? Or would you have to find advertisers yourself?

@razorboy Check DP/SitePoint.

I guess not. All I got at work was"You have attempted to navigate to a site that is blocked because it is categorized as Sex"

I love how they write Sex but I think OUT ye demons OUT would have been more appropriate.

This is the fourth time in the last couple of weeks I've seen this method posted on a forum. Can't help but wonder if it's the same poster.

turbolapp

Well sure, it's not like he just sat down and said I've got a whole 7 posts I think it's high time I gave back to wickedfire. He's obviously posting for a reason. I guess it just depends on whatever that reason is and if what he's posting has good enough quality. So hidden agendas are fine as long as they aren't blatantly against forum policy and serve a purpose for the other members. Hence, all the shameless plugging going on around here.

The guy does need to find the NSFW button though.

Sorry about the NSFW links people. Will encode the links with warnings the next time around. ScottDaMan: Sweet techniques about buying links and linking them all together. Care to elaborate? What did you run on those urls? Blogs/Sites?

MDSandB

Bad Boy,

Look what your saying " 5. PayPerPost - This will be your most guaranteed money maker. You will only have to make 1 post per week per blog. Money Made = $20."

Payperpost needs three months time to approve your blog and also if the same content is found on any other blog your blog will not be accepted. So you need ORIGINAL Content on your blog for three months. Also if you have many rubbish ads n banners on it, the chances are even fewer.

May be you can tell how you are going to get original contens on all 5 Blogs for 3 months.

Glad I did read the full thread because my question (yes, I'm as damn new as they come) is: Why would I pay/trade $900 for $90 a month? Ok, I get that you have to keep building up the blogs (all 5 of them) but if I wanted to work that hard - wouldn't it make more $$$ sense to push hard on one blog a month?

Asking because this just doesn't make money sense to me...if I'm making $90 a month from 5 sites???? WT????
