Yay! Like many aspiring SEO’ers, I am going to begin my first official SEO Experiment.

What will I be doing? Focusing in on my niche expertise (video games), I am going to see the difference of search engine rankings (particularly google) for small keywords between an established, respected website (Vgescape.com), and many new domain’s, which have the keywords in their domain. Each of these small sites will range from one page to a maximum of seven pages.

Most of the new sites will be set up by August 1st. Most of my major marketing for all of the sites will be done by September 1st.

The experiment should prove very interesting, but it is a big risk. A domain costs approximately 7.00$. All my income comes from Vgescape so I am already on a limited budget.

How many domains will I be buying? Well, there are five consoles I cover, Xbox 360, PS3, PSP, DS, and Wii. Say, by September 1, I purchase an average of 15 domains per console? That is 15 x 5 x 7 = 525$.

Then you have to factor in all the annoying hosting problems I will have to go through with the 75 new sites.

Nonetheless, by October 1, if even 10% of them can rank decently, and take in 1500 uniques a month, with the other 90% averaging 150 uniques a month, this still ends up with a total of about 22,000 uniques a month in total. That would equal out to about 0 a month.

Well, we’ll see. I’ll post up a static page for this experimental project soon.
