It has been nearly 18 months since I started this experiment and I am no closer to that 100 websites or 100$ a day mark.
Things learnt so far.
1. Replication is not that simple. It takes more effort then just putting a site and hope it will make money. There are factors at play and need to be wary of them
- Competition
- Keywords
- Popularity
2. Competition is fierce. If you tackle a particular niche that is highly competitive you will most likely not do well unless you really know how to rank well in search engines and how to do SEO.
3. Marketing a site is important. Cannot just hope that a crawler will crawl your site. Especially if it is in a highly competitive niche.
From these lessons learnt, I will be taking a different approach in how to tackle this project and concentrate my efforts of dominating the SERP for one particular niche and then extend it to 10 niches.
If I can start making 50$ a day on this one site then I should be able to take to 100$ with new sites. Until I figured out how to dominate a niche then there is no use building multiple sites on different niches as it will be a waste of effort. Once I can perfect one then it should be possible to create more sites.

I have made some good progress in getting my second site setup. I have registering my domain name and am in the progress of finishing the final layout for my site. Only thing left to do is find a new host.
Anyone know of a good ASP.NET hosting? If you know any hosts who meet the following criteria shoot me a message.
- One Account which can support multiple domain - multiple roots (no code redirection)
- MySQL DB
- ASP.NET 2.0/3.5
- FTP Access
- Roughly 10$ a month per domain

I have decided to end my Money Making Experiment - Playing Poker. It was fun while it lasted but sometimes you know when it is time to move on. I realise that Poker did not really fit in with my life aspirations and goals.
Can you make money playing poker? I guess the answer is Yes but if you looking for it to support your lifestyle then it is not easy.
The game can often be very time consuming. Often it can lead to hours of play and result in very little gain or nothing. It is physically exhausting. You need to be mentally, physically and emotionally strong in this game. I have to admit it was hard work...it wasn't easy money as some would like to think.
I made more money in doing nothing on my websites then playing 8 hours of poker. So the obvious decision was to start concentrating and working on my other experiments.
I am quite happy with it generally, I started the experiment with 10$ and finished up with 53$. making that 530% return on my money. Not bad for an amateur.

I have change the experiment to exclude my personal blogs, until I am able to monetize them, as at this stage there is no real SEO or work done on them.
I am in the progress of completing the final code build of my template and should be able to start building new sites in the next 3-4 months.
Currently I have rebuilt most of the code in ASP.NET, so the new platform should enable rapid development and creation of new sites.
