It’s better to focus on one big website, and become an authority.

I too downloaded the free Authority Black Book by Jack Humphrey. It was full of information that it can beat any crap $97 ebooks by a mile.

Yes, the way to make money nowadays is to have a few (1-5) authority sites that you can be proud of to call your own with rich and informative content that benefits the readers, not thousands of sites with nothing but garbage, auto-generated content.

The way some of the guberus are saying is that it’s better to spread the eggs into thousands of baskets. That is pre-2005 days when Traffic Equalizer is the king of auto-generated content software. Now is 2007. Authority rules (think Trustrank).

How in the world are you going to launch thousands of sites with thousands of keywords with no real content, links and authority? Those sales page selling hype (see AdsenseWealthEmpire.com) works in theory but try doing it in real world with the push of a button. Supplemental results in google is the answer.

You are certainly right mate, there is always a certain level of “grinding” as they call it in online games to be done.

Think of how all mmorpg’s are made (massively multiplayer online role playing games) you build your character, and you grind your way through quests, monsters and levels to build your “level” up.

Think of this as “grinding” and “levelling” up for your business.

I know for me personally there is always a certain amount of grinding to reach a new level of success weather it be emotionally, financially, health or spiritual.

Do I like going to the gym 5 days a week, for 1 hour every day and lifting heavy weights that make me freaking sore, and throw up if I push hard enough?

Not really (sometimes though ) but I crave the end result which is a healthy fit body and muscular physique that okay is probably pre-determined by society.

I guess what I am trying to say is you will always grind in life to some degree.

It’s when you reach the upper levels that you need to grind less, and manage more that becomes fun.

Hopefully that helps some and connects with others.

The time consuming stuff. The stuff where you actually build value is what will ultimately serve you the best. It’s just hard to know if you’ll make money at it. But like some say, don’t build sites with the intent of making money. Build a site you’re passionate about and the money will come.

So I thought, would a person achieve more $$$ if he, for example focus on adsense, by scrapping and churning out sites like a no-brainer thing and doing it repetitiously and as simply as possible instead of performing more time consuming, creative tasks that require concentration and constant focus, as in continuously learning about new unproven stuffs, creating original content, affiliate products or blogging etc?

And I am sure there are people doing just that, could you share your views on this Splork?
