How many sponsors does it takes you to build one nice blog?

[Huste]

How many sponsors does it takes you to create a blog that is filled with a good amount of text and content?

This includes sidebars, pages, posts, and everything else within one blog.

[XXXTurn]

from one to unlimited

but better start with few

[Adriaan]

take one or two sponsors as your main sponsors
for example: http://nats.jaymancash.com/track/Mjg5Njo0OjM/ or http://track.braincash.com/track/MTA...nVuZGVmaW5lZA/ or http://click.netpondcash.com:8080/ct?id=36112&bn=1143 which are all three great sponsors!

after that I suggest you to use CEcash as your free trial sponsor which I am doing viery well with!!

Also pick a dating and a cam sponsor of your choice!

I'm using two sponsors that each have a bunch of sites.

Don't dispers your efforts across too many sponsors but make sure you don't put all your eggs in the same basket and also offer your surfers "variety" .

I like 1 sponsor site = 1 blog. However I often mention additional sponsors in my blog posts, for example giving a link to DVD movie, or pay-per-view, a sextoy, things like that.
CEcash is good for sidebars as well as camera and other sponsors. I call them sub-sponsors but they can also sell very well if you present them the way that surfer is excited and clicks on them while browsing your main content.

Some of them are also good for shitty traffic that doesnt buy anything, but wouldnt mind chatting on camsite or signup by email. That's where CEcash comes handy.
Also mentioning other paysites within the same niche is a good idea. For example my latest blog got 500 hits to three other paysites mentioned on sidebar only within 6 days.

I focus on one sponsor/1 site for one blog, but throw in something to differ, like fling, eroticy etc. A 3-4 sponsor i would say is a minimum if you are going to offer different options for the surfer.

I understand your concept alessandro, but I haven't figured out how one can limit it to a few sponsors per blog while having the posts all automated with rss feeds.

Venril and ting tong, are your blogs niche specific and are your blogs automated? I'm guessing that you must write all your own posts because even some of the best sponsors who provide rss feeds, they only have enough for 50-80 days if you were to post only 1 post per day. Unless its a general sex blog which allows you to mix all the rss feeds of one sponsor.

Can you or anyone please elaborate on how you accomplish one automated blog site = 1-3 sponsor site(s)? I'm still trying to grasp how others are able to do this while maintaining anything over 20 blogs.

I am planning to loop my handwritten posts on some of my blogs. Hopefully 3-4 months Or perhaps I could reuse the texts again somehow.
I follow 1 post per 5-7 days rule, with handwritten content there is no need to post once a day.
I am still rather new to blogging, but one of my newest blogs already brought me $45 in sign ups. I tried my best writing for it however. This blog is 6 days old.

I believe the truth is somewhere in between. You should use both RSS feeds and handwritten content for best results/optimal time saved. I never tried pure RSS blogs, how well they do signup and SEO wise?

Theres different opinions when it comes to SEO with pure RSS Blogs. Some say that it would be affected by content duplicatoin while others would debate that it doesn't. Some believe that you would get banned for content dups and while others say that you don't they say that the dup content just gets ignored.

But for my personal observation I run mostly RSS automated blogs and I have made enough to purchase Blog Organizer(BO) last week. BO will eventually give me a lot more time to start focusing more on SEO, while income flows in. My blogs havent been running long enough to know how SEO is affected, but I will know in a month or two from now.

I do like your idea about mixing both RSS and handwritten posts. However for me, right now i'm more worried about building blogs & traffic rather than focusing on building for SE traffic. Getting on that first page of the SE Results is a long shot for a SEO starter like me, but one must start at some point. The only SEO I'm doing right now is building my blogs around my keyword phrases where ever I can and watching out for it's density. With the sponsors' RSS automated blogs, its limiting to what you can do because you really don't control of the post text. When I have the time I'll merge handwritten posts with RSS posts in hopes to see better SE rankings.

We are definitely approaching blogs with two different concepts.

Great thread here. Nice posts guys

[Bedtime Stories]

Personally, I find blogs that promote a large number of sponsors a little bewildering. I think those that heavily promote one good sponsor can be more effective.

6.65321 recurring

Before ya breate me - can that recur..?

[fresh]

3-15
I wont create blog for 1 sponsor. Surfer must have a chance to choose. What if surfer does not like that one sponsor. What if he already is/was a member of the single sponsor I promote on that blog? It means I can't sell anything to that surfer.

[Venril]

I always thought if 100+ other webmasters had used same RSS feeds as you, your chances to get to SERPs are much lower than if your content was handwritten or mixed, or your RSS feed was used only by no more than 10-50 webmasters.

I remember someone said they were making about $400/month from 300ish purely RSS blogs. My records for june are $171 with 8 handwritten blogs. However I probably been lucky.

I am planning to build large base of my own postings and reuse it several times over. I'd go crazy updating 100+ blogs by hand :P So some of them should reuse content, mix it with RSS or go pure RSS.

Also with Twan's rss2anywhere you can take 1 RSS feed and 2 of your own blogs, and make 3rd automatic blog off it. I've yet to play with it but I will.

Most of the sales from blogs are coming from the sidebars.
If you concentrate on one sponsor/site for that blog than fill up the sidebar with ad's from that site. If the blog is automated the rss feeds are just filler content, and won't sell a lot.
My blogs are both automated, semi-automated and manual.
