So I havent posted anything in awhile so I thought I would talk some about my trials at starting a blog network. It is alot harder than I ever thought!
Writing 25 unique articles daily, with little return is not only frustrating…but really boring. I have hired a few writers to fill in when I am swamped, however I really do want to build the content myself. Sounds strange, but that is how I am doing it.
Right now, I am a little embarrassed to post the domains as their design is terrible. My initial plan was to have a crappy design and simply build all the content I could in the first month. This was a stupid plan, so I am getting a nice design put up this week on for each of my five blogs in my small blog network.
Link building is also really really boring. When I had landing pages for PPC, I would build links for them one at a time, although still boring it was alot easier. Five sites at a time…(still not that many sites)….sucks bad.
Anyways, I am not really complaining just venting I guess. I want this to succeed and eventually be able to get some niche blogs, and a central blog. I listened to a podcast and in it was an ex-writer for TechCrunch. He talked about how he thinks blog networks are soon done and one central blog covering many topics is going to be the new thing. I don’t 100% agree, however I am going to build a central blog that covers multiple topics.
Just by writing for five blogs, link building, stumbling, digging….really makes me respect these people who run huge blog networks. I know they are not one man ops. like mine, but still it amazes me.
P.S. Happy mothers day to all the moms!
