The Simple 10 Page Website Profit Plan For 2008

I have been having great success creating small 10 or 11 page websites and I want to share with you how I have been doing it. First of all I want to give a disclaimer that I didn’t come up with the idea - I first heard about it over at at Super Apprentice which is a site I highly recommend and they do many of things I’m talking about below automatically. However you can not use PLR articles with them and have to write your own or hire ghostwriters to create unique articles for their system, so it becomes expensive when just starting out - if you can afford it I highly advise you join them, if not I recommend you follow my steps below (or both) and when you are making profit then join them.

The idea is to create small websites, promote them, get them earning money from adsense and then sell them. The sites usually sell for about 8 and 12 times their current monthly revenue. So lets say you create a site and promote it and then in it’s third month it is earning about $50 a month in adsense revenue you sell it for about $400-$600. The idea is that once you have lots of sites you just can’t keep promoting them all and they usually start to decline in profits because of it so take the money while you can and then reinvest that money into creating more sites.

So when you first start out you might sell one or two sites a month but eventually you could be selling 1 or more a day if you keep working the business in this manner.

I want to show you how to get the most out of your PLR articles and create these little sites and rank well in the search engines.

I strongly advice you to create your own websites using your own web design. I use very basic site design - in fact most of them don’t have any graphics at all. The thing is you decide on the web design that you like.

Second I chose a topic from the PLR articles. I then go to Google and do keyword research as outlined in this video tuturial. Basically you want to find 2 word or more phrases that have less then 50,000 competitors in Google. So you do your keyword research and then with the phrases you find you search for them in google using quotation marks. So if the keyword phrase was dish licker you would search for “dish licker” - if the phrase returns less then 50,000 competitors and there are adwords ads showing up for it then it is a keeper. Keep doing this unitl you find 10 keyword phrases to build your site around.

I then find the articles that best fit or come close to those keywords and make any appropriate changes to them I need to make them target that keyword phrase. I then find other articles and add more content below the first article that may be related in some way. So if I have an article about fitness I may add content about fitness mats, exercise balls, etc. This then makes a page of about 700-1200 words and is using the content of more then just one article. Sometimes I just use 2 articles, sometimes I use snippets from a number of articles, but I am looking for 10 good pages of content for my site.

The one thing I feel you must absolutely do with PLR content is change the Title of them when using them. So I create a new title for the article based around the keyword phrase I am using - I search for that title in google using quotation marks until I have formulated a title that is not found in google. Therefore I find a totally unique title.

Make sure you use meta tags on each page to insert a unique title (I usually use the same title I researched above), meta keywords amd meta description. These are all steps towards making your site more unique - therefore - Your own web design, your own article title, your own keyword research, your own mixture of articles,  your own meta tags.

I advise placing the largest adsense rectangle format directly beneath the title of your first article. I also recommend that is the ONLY adsense ad you use to start out with. Once the site is going okay experiment with adding more. I also have had some success earning commissions by recommending some Clickbank products at the bottom of the page directly underneath the content.

The index page of your site can be one of the articles which will make a neat little 10 page site or you could write an introduction to your site summarizing what visitors can find from the articles which would extend your site to 11 pages.

After determining what my site is going to be about I search for a domain name and usually try to pick one that is available that is close to one of my keyword phrases.  

I order my domains from 1and1 and I register them with the private option. By using the private option no one knows the domain is owned by me. At most domain registrars this option usually costs you an extra $9 per year however at 1and1 it doesn’t cost any extra at all and .com domains at the time of writing are at the cheap end of the scale at just $6.99.

The only draw back with registering your domain at 1and1 is that they take longer then most to set you up. It can take 6 hours or more to get set up before changing the DNS to point to your webhost and then up to 24 hours for that to take affect. However I feel the cost saving is worth it. Please note: I don’t know what their webhosting is like I only use them to register my domains.

For hosting I use Hostgator baby plan which only costs $7.95 a month and you can host unlimited domains. So your webhosting cost for all of your domains is very small.

For promoting these sites I create 1 article and submit it to the major article directories: ezinearticles being the major one if submitting by hand or to submit in bulk you can use a service like articlespreader

The most important thing I do is use Linkvana to get one way backlinks to my new sites. This works extremely well and I’m still amazed how much more quickly my sites are getting indexed in Google because of this service. I get my writers to write short 100 word stories around the keyword phrase of each page. I get them to do 20 (more would be preferable but costs limit what I can do) for each site and I then plug them into the Linkvana service with approximately 50% of those blogs linking back to my home page and the others linking to internal pages of the site.

 For selling sites Sitepoint seems to be the number one place at the moment however with a site already earning income you should also have success on Ebay.

The site I told you about earlier in the article - Super Apprentice - automates almost entirely everything mentioned above. You need to come up with your own content but even with that the guys at Super Apprentice have a system in place where you can  outsource that work as well.

 With Super Apprentice you add the content by following their step by step road map and they take over from there. They submit an article to the article directories, they submit blog snippets to their blog network similar to Linkvana and they also submit your links to the major directories and provide back linking to your sites as well. All this makes it a fabulous service however even greater then all of that they have automated a buy back process where they have buyers ready to purchase your site for a GUARANTEED mimimum of 8 times it’s current monthly revenue.

SuperApprentice gives you a step by step roadmap with easy to follow tutorials and takes the headache out of creating and reselling your sites making it in my opinion the most valuable membership site I have ever belonged to and believe me I have belonged to most of them at one time or another.

 

I hope this little tutorial has given you a few more ideas on how to profit online.

All the best

One of the greatest advantages of PLR articles is the ability to create your own article directory. However one of the biggest frustrations has been the pain staking task of copying and pasting the articles into the directory.

 After searching for an answer I found an article directory script that allows bulk importing of your articles. You can see the quick video of how easy it is…

 Video Review Of Article Buddy

I’ve put together a fairly comprehensiive video showing inside my own private label article membership site. The site really does supply a lot of stuff…

 Watch the video

I have purchased a number of ebooks in the past few weeks - some
from hype filled launches and I have to say I have been left very
unimpressed with all of them except the one I got today.

I don’t know if you have heard of Jimmy D. Brown or not but
I can tell you I have purchased quite a lot of products from him
over the years and he ALWAYS hits the nail on the head.

Somehow he has the uncanny ability to explain things so that they
clearly make sense and are easy to follow and implement. While others
may know what they are doing Jimmy is brilliant at writing in such a
way to teach others how to do it.

His latest product Small Reports Fortune is outstanding. I usually
speed read most ebooks I buy these days but I have gone one step
further with this one. I have finished my usually speed reading of it
but it has so many gems inside it I had to print it out.

Now I haven’t printed out an ebook for years. This is soooo good!

I will be going through every page again and highlighting so many things…
My mind is already racing with a myriad of ideas. What Jimmy reveals
in this ebook is quick and easy to achieve and if you follow his advice
you will do very well.

There are so many gems inside it. Not just the idea of creating small
reports for huge profits but Jimmy also shows you how to write effectively.
Just his tips about how to write headlines and when to use certain types
of sentences, words, bullet points, etc. is more then enough to help
you succeed online in many other areas as well.

Anyhow - I could rave about if for hours suffice to say I highly
recommend you get this product and do as I have done - print it out
and keep it right next to your computer as reference guide for all
of your projects.

Adword Analyzer sometimes mistakenly called adwords analyzer is a very easy to use yet ultra effective software tool for finding keywords.

As the name of the software suggests it is brilliant for optimizing your adwords and overture advertising campaigns. This statement straight from their website summarises it all best:

 Simply open the program and enter a chosen keyword. With a click of your mouse, Ad Word Analyzer 3.0 will automatically return the following results:

1. A comprehensive list of all RELATED keyword phrases!
    

2. The number of searches that were conducted throughout the previous month for each keyword phrase!
    

3. The number of advertising campaigns that currently exist - for both Google AdWords AND Overture!

However I’m personally into adsense publishing more so then adwords advertising and I find Adword Analyzer a very effective tool for finding keywords to build my adsense sites around. The following video I created shows you how easy it is to use this software whether you need it to enhance your adwords profitability or for creating highly targeted adsense sites - or both!

Just in conclusion I want to add that I have owned this software for a very long time and the owner continues to provide free updates. Very impressive indeed.

Article Marketer is a mass article submission service that I have used with great results.

 For quite sometime I had been using a software program that claimed to automate the article submission process however it was far from automated. Submitting articles with this software was only semi-automated at best and you couldn’t leave your computer while submitting articles because you had to continually press various buttons.

 While putting up with this software I found myself submitting less and less articles as the process was just too time consuming. Over some months I saw the name Article Marketer bob up quite a lot on various forums with mixed reviews.

Some raved about it while others slammed the service. So like anything else in life opinions a cheap and the only real way to find out was to give it ago myself. I had too… my websites (way too many of them) were suffering. I needed major promotional efforts and I knew article submissions would make the difference.

So I did join Article Marketer and I’m absolutely wrapped with the results. I use the articles I submit with the main aim of getting links to my sites to attract the search engine spiders - you ain’t going to get listed if they can’t find you.

 Anyhow - below is a link to a video I made about my early results with this and why I highly recommend them.

I also might add that Article Marketer also pre-screen your articles for mistakes and highlight areas you should change to get the most effect from your promotional efforts. I have found them to be extremely professional and experts in the article submission field.
