Lots of sites + earn 1 pound a day = lots of money?

I’m a programmer and have been programming in some form for the last 23 years.  Thats makes me sound very old, but I’m not!  I first started programming from a Sinclair Spectrum Basic manual in 1983.

Being a programmer has its advantages in that if I want to quickly knock up a website, I can - and I did that just a few minutes ago - partly for a small business idea, and partly to see how quickly Google can pickup a brand new website and domain name.  I reserved it about 20 minutes ago,  a small 3 page site is up and running and its linked into an affiliate programme - check it at warm legs.

Now you may wonder why I’ve got an interest in that type of site.  Well I heard on the weather this morning that its going to get colder, girls in the office were saying that they found it cold and I also received an invite to an affiliate programme.  The cogs starting moving, I did some checking of domain names and the rest you’ve probably seen if you clicked on the link above.

Bet you are wondering how this relates to the title of this post… Well for a while now I’ve been building up a portfolio of domain names - some quite good names, others have less potential but I plan to get a mini-site up for each domain name, do some basic content for each site, get the sites indexed and see what happens. 

If I’ve got say 100 sites and they each earn £1 a day, thats £700 per week, or £36,400 per year.

It took me about 20 minutes to get the domain reserved, got the site up onto the internet, so we’ll see later in the year how profitable that 20 minutes was!

I’m also monitoring how quickly the search engines pickup the new site as its got backlinks from some of my other sites and on some blogs I’ve read that people have reported new sites appearing on Google within 3 hours…  I’m expecting a week, but I’ll monitor and will report here shortly.
