WordPress is the core simply because it is very easy to setup. We are currently working on the complete solution, but until then I will be happy to steer you in the right direction for the required tools.

BTY and just for the record. 2houseplague is a wealth of info on this topic and most all of my theories have come from dialog with him.

Of course you can, just takes some planning and tweaking, and an addon for some parsing the feeds, like magpierss.

I like to run the feeds threw MagpieRSS onto my pages and delete the linking ability in the source,so its pulling my feeds but not linking into them, except where i want them to (with terms i want them to), so its just pulling rich text and not wasting any links (even though its my feeds).

To mix it up and get all slutty with it you can install phpGiggle (auto generates text links with keyterms you chose in the heirarchy you chose) and let it run wild. Fresh new content comes in from the several feeds you run from a few sources, without a traffic leak or link power leak, and you set a list of terms that you want the fresh content (anchor texts) linking up to your shit as it parses the page, a standard .php page, or added anywhere on your blog, wordpress or not.

So is trading links yet everyone still does it. A blog to the people on GFY is just an easy ftp program. :1orglaugh

I set up a highly targeted blog a few months ago as a joke, but decided to keep updating it a few times a month when new news related to my target comes out. At this point it's making about $100 a month with only a few minutes every week when a new story comes out. Not a ton of cash, but a decent return on the time I spend on it.

Are your updates done manually or automated?

I make a lot more than $500/month from my blogs :)

Well I only go after lesser known niches. Therefore I only have 2-3 sponsors with content (usally one with out) so I have to make do with what I have.

hows shit in Michigan? I see it's pretty cool, care to chat detail$?

I would amost guarantee manually. No auto updated crap is worth 12k a month without more setup work than 5 years of manual posting.

50 blogs making $500 will make you happy

Automated? Nigga please, I believe in custom content. :winkwink:

oldschool, eh? ;)

i don't really believe in autoblogger pro and those scripts either..

good niche.. nice blogroll or hardlinks from other relevant sites and you'll make some bucks soon.

if everyone wants to write for my 2 gamblingblogs, please contact me: [email protected]

When you create your own content, content that hasn't been redigested a million times, but is fresh and unique, people love it. They'll tell others about it, they get excited with you, for you. Fuck automation.

A good blog should get search engine love, but I can't think why you would avoid buying additional traffic for a successful venture.

Amelia, I lost your ICQ -- 196-767-065

Everytime I say something among those lines, for some wierd reason I get lots of hate from some people :1orglaugh :thumbsup

Expand your thought process and stop using words like "only" and "make due".

There is no reason that you cannot expand what you are doing to cover a much wider range and produce larger traffic streams.

Think of how CAN you do it, not how you can't.

2houseplague is the man worth visiting now :thumbsup

:pimp :pimp

:winkwink: :winkwink: :winkwink:

You're right. I'll expand it right now, just bought a new domain for wider range and larger traffic. We'll see how I CAN, if I can.

There no money in blogging :D Give up... give me your blogs

Hit me up on ICQ. I have some interesting things to show you.
