OK I've had this idea for a very long time now, and I think most of you must have thought about it once or twice before and maybe someone may have brought this matter up previously, but here goes:
--> based on current readings of SEO and Marketing forums and the general trend nowadays in making money on the Net (

feels like I'm writing a proposal already)
Stage 1:
--------
Find a market niche - for this scenario will use "Finance"
- create a few dozen websites, maybe not a few....ok let's say...to be on the realistic end ---- 12 websites each with their own domain names. The names of these domains also relate to the above "niche" market.
- populate these domains with articles, help files, all kinds of contends one can find about the "financial" markets for example; investments, credit repair, loans and grants, tips, how-to's, banking facilities, mortgages....you get the idea...
- all these sites are linked to one another. Let's say, Website A has articles that is relevant to website B and therefore links to that particular reference in website B. And this cross linkings go all around these 12 sites.
- maximise their keyword potentials for adsense and such. Join a few affilliate programs as and juggle them in between adsense and affilliate programs.
Stage 2:
--------
- marketing: basically market them to as many search engines as possible and refer them to as many sectors that targets the particular niche market, using all available mediums.
- so for the next 6-9 months, these 12 sites are pampered and babied to no end.
==========================
SO here comes the question -- Will it generate income ? (from the affilliates programs and adsense)
can you guys provide an analysis of this idea?
I'm very curious and wonder if I should give it a try....but to a different niche as my expertise lies in another direction.
