This is precisely how I started in the business. Drive-by content sites tend to not make a whole lot of money. In high value markets you are going to have a tough time competing with the guys spending $10,000 a month on paid text backlinks. With the type of site I just described, $300 a month is reasonable expectation. This is your starting point. You need to get familiar with rapidly building and deploying sites. You need to learn to allocate your time to the elements responsible for bringing in the money.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/3F845F6D-8816-4F87-B861-FC4FA47864CE/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
