Now I haven't quite finished up the 100 hubpage challenge yet, but I am considering participating in the new blog post challenge. The reason is because I do own a few domains that are not hyper-niche targeted and would probably do very well if the blogs were a bit more filled out. This challenge would give me the stimulus to go back and produce more content rather than just letting these blogs age.
Last night I went ahead and changed the hosting over on both domains I plan to use for the 100 blog post challenge - the current account I had them with was set to expire on July 15th and I wasn't very happy with that hosting anyway. I have gone ahead and switched to hostgator - mush easier for us non-code folks to host wordpress blogs on. My previous hosting company provided very little support and a very old install of Wordpress (2.0 I believe!). I continually had permissions problems and if you are like me and the letters FTP scare you, this was not a good solution!
Now I am at the stage where I am waiting not-so-patiently for the little buggers to finally propogate out so I can get the old content back up and running as well as set up the themes and all that. Like I said, I avoid FTP like the plague!
Once these changes are all on place, I am going to follow this plan for the week:
- 3-4 Blog Posts per day
- 1-2 Hubs added per day (may or may not be supporting the blog posts)
- 1-2 Infobarrels added per day (may or may not be supporting the blog posts)
- 1 Day building backlinks without adding new content
Currently only one of the 2 blogs are monetized with Adsense - although its not yet ranking for its keywords it does provide a trickle of income each month that covers the hosting fees. The other domain I purchased branded rather than keyworded and hadn't decided what to do with it yet. Its been sitting for a little over a month with a hello world! post which ironically is indexed in Google. So basically, both of the blogs that I will be trying to create a larger passive income opportunity with could be classed as flagship sites.
Can't wait to see how the contest goes! I am probably starting a tad behind as I have no pagerank as of yet and both of the domains are fairly new, but its an experiment in making money online. You will never know what happens until you try it yourself!
