I read a post by Mike over at Retire Young and Wealthy and talks about starting one website per week. His rationale, and I have seen this many other places as well, is that the low start up costs makes it relatively easy to turn a quick profit. I can see his point - when domain names are only $10 a pop and you can piggyback on existing hosting space through a sub-domain the start-up costs and ongoing costs are very low. Even if you get maybe one click per day at $0.13 it will only take you about 4 months to recoup your money and then the rest is gravy!

How many websites is too much? Is it better to focus on doing one or two websites really well or is the better strategy to put up a tonne of mini sites that get a few clicks a day and let the law of averages take over. I don’t know what is best but if I have time, I may try a mini-site just to see what happens. What things should I consider if I do this - any help would be great.
