Sorry if Im asking too many questions….
So it seems most people had to work 18 months + before seeing financially significant results… not suprising since white hat seo seems to be the best strategy in this industry..
But Im wondering how many sites did people build in their first 18 months? Were all your sites a success? What do you think made some of your sites better than others?
Thanks in advance (also, how do i thank people on this forum software?)
You are going to get a lot of different answers to this one.
I built one single site.
ONE site.
It’s changed a lot – but it’s the same site GoonersGuide.com.

There is a [Thanks] icon on the bottom right of each post. Click the link to post a thanks.
I started with one site and then built a second one three years later.
Interesting dilemma. Im split in two minds over this. Brand name v Specific mini sites. Ive stumbled over goonersguide and would go back – brand name. ive found mini specific sites interesting but forgettable
I built 1 site and a year later built another. After that, probably 1 new site every 6 months or so.
It’s VERY difficult to keep content fresh across multiple sites, though.
Ive only got 1 site and I hope I dont have to create another…..maybe its the wrong strategy but I think its all I can handle….

Really nice looking site, by the way. But how do you monetize it? Through casino clients paying for inclusion?
(btw…your link to Bodog is out of date ie its now bodoglife.com)

The original idea behind the site was that the casinos could edit the information on their page themselves, to include tournaments and upcoming events or whatever, and that they would pay a small monthly fee for access to the edit page. But there was very little interest for me so now here I am, trying to make a buck off of being an affiliate…..I am a newbie and a half so Im a bit lost! You must be a Bodog affiliate?
I like the site and idea, but you will need to build up traffic before you get any takers.
Also, most places don’t have the staff to spend time on these things…
I think your idea is good but there is a lack of interest in branding in this leg of the industry. IMO, that’s a mistake the industry makes.

Domonique,
Thanks for the info, Ive been getting some great tips since Ive joined this forum, and there will be some changes to my site (After I get back from Mexico!)Todd
Im on my 12th month now and I have two sites. I plan on making another one in a different niche in the future, probably a few months, so I anticipate that I will probably have 3 in my first 18 months.
I heard that its easier to make $1000 of 10 websites than it is to make $1000 off one, so I kept that in mind and started to branch out.
Although, I would never make a half-assed site. I like to keep all my sites in check and add content as best as I can, so I think 3 is going to be my maximum for now. I wouldnt want any getting left behind because I have no time for them.
That’s a really nice looking site as well Inersha, Did you design it yourself? Do you mind me asking if it runs off a CMS?
