Building AdSense & Amazon Website Experiment

Comments are welcome... =)

Thanks. I will post updates once per few weeks.

Hi kreci, so as I understand it, you are basically build a niche content farm? You would buy rewritten articles for $1.75 and then try to push them to Google using seo techniques so Adsense and Amazon aff links will earn more than the expenses are.

I'd like to ask what are the criteria to find out "a niche that has enough search traffic and earning potential." You just compare the numbers with other websites you own?

This model seems pretty common for content/Adsense-based websites. I've always been somewhat skeptical of the actual ability to produce profit in the long run - how much value are you actually adding to the Internet?

I'm definitely interested to see where it goes and how long it takes to generate reasonable Adsense revenues (e.g. $1+ a day).

My only concern is that this isn't really a true experiment if you post it on HN and market it on your blog. Don't you think these websites (e.g. reddit, HN) could cross-contaminate what you're trying to determine?

OK, maybe you should Google "farmer update" and read a bit about that. Then check your backlinks. I could not find those 500 backlinks you bought. All I can see are 59 external links from 3 unique domains. So what have you done with them them when you got them?
