3rd Site Up

Just put up my third site … This is the last of the initial batch of sites I made about mobile phones … The domain is MobileContractsGuide.com and it is obviously about mobile contracts … I choose to start this at the same time as the other 2 because I feel like they group well together … Future sites will branch out in to different niches.

The Bank – Week 1

Starting Bankroll: $500

6 New Domains: – $39.62
Articles Purchased for 2 sites: – $30
Estibot Subscription – $19.99

Ending Balance: $410.39

Keyword Research

I have spent a good part of the weekend researching keywords and filling up a spreadsheet with over 500 available .Coms and over 1000 available .Nets … I signed up for an EstiBot account to get estimates on domain values and used the Keyword Academy tools to figure out Adsense Potential and how difficult it would be to rank for the keywords … Obviously I am not going to register anywhere near that many domains so starting tomorrow I will be posting an available domain on my twitter account daily.

First 2 Sites

Got my first two sites of the new Project5k up and running with a little help from the keyword academy and some content I bought on digital point they are now fleshed out and ready to go … Both sites are about phones …

TheLatestMobile.Com – Focused on the latest mobile phones

TheNewMobiles.Com – Focused on new mobiles

I will work on link building these sites over the next few weeks and we will see how long it takes to rank in google.

GoDaddy Promo

Still gathering content to fill in the niche sites … In the mean time I stumbled on a 99 cent GoDaddy promo and picked up another domain for $1.17 after icann fees … Use code SCHOOL99 for the discount.

Micro Niche Sites

Thanks to The Keyword Academy I was able to pinpoint some keywords that have good potential earnings. I have spent the last couple of days setting up small sites to focus on the keywords.

I have purchased 5 domains and have enlisted a few article writers to fill them up with content. I am looking to have at least 3 up and running by the end of the week and 5 up by next week. I would like to grow to 10-15 small sites running by the end of the September.

I will post more details once I have some of the sites up later this week.

The Keyword Academy

I have tried other make money online courses before that have disappointed me (cough) shoemoney system (cough) so I was a little skeptical about signing up for another one at the beginning of this attempt at Project5k but The Keyword Academy is offering a free trial for the first month so I figured I would give it a shot. After watching most of the core videos (the videos are slightly outdated but they have great updated supplemental information for each video as well a new online tool that makes the process much easier) I have registered 5 new domains that I will be using to create niche keyword sites. I hope to have the sites up and running next week so that I can start link building.

Turning $500 into $5,000

Summer is winding down and it is time to focus on getting to work … The goal of Project5k is to turn $500 into $5,000 in 250 days so I will have to average $20 a day to complete the goal … I will document the journey on this site and try to keep it as up to date as possible.
