Thanks for being so thorough in your post. You really provided a ton of valuable information. I was thinking about starting several mini sites but I just don’t know if I would stay focused enough to maintain each of them. I like having everything on one blog and just writing a post under a particular category based on how I feel. Time will tell if I end up making any money using this strategy in the long run. For now, I’m just content to be expressing myself creatively and hopefully producing content that people find meaningful and useful in the process. Thanks again, your article was very helpful.

Thanks for the comments, all.

As far as how long you should wait for a site to prove itself, I’d go more by traffic than any set time. One site may get to 100 or 500 visitors a day before the others, and you see it has a lot of potential to grow. If it’s making more money per thousand page impressions than the others, then it’s probably a clear winner. Sometimes, you get a situation where one brings in more traffic, but earnings per thousand page views are significantly lower. That’s when you can decide if there’s one you enjoy more, or if you want to keep both.
