   I’m running more than 5 blogs

2. Mr. I on October 26th, 2009 9:23 am

   Right now, I have only one blog. I have always believed that being focused is the best way to run a blog and I concentrate fully on it.

   Another reason for only one blog is that I do not get too much free time.

   In my opinion, starting with just one blog and later expanding is a great strategy as new blogs benefit a lot from established blog. A great example was Darren’s Twitip. He already had 2 well established blogs when he started it and it got a lot of benefit from this.

   I have 4 blog but only 2 active, so i vote for 2.

4. Available Domains Blog on October 26th, 2009 10:29 am

   4 blogs full time and willing to test few more part time.

   As here we are four friends, We can successfully run more than 5 blogs. Newly launched one is http://www.RedisRed.com . It helps people to make money online via blogging from scratch. We run a daily contest for winning free domain & hosting also.

   So how many blogs is not matter. What you are dealing with those blogs really matter. Offer some great content, it might be updates, news or how to blogs. If you help others in some way, your blogs start grow & make money for you.

   Generally niche bloggers start more blogs in all type of high paying niches. Its also a good idea.

   I only have one blog right now, but I have several other domains. Not sure what the future will bring. Right now I have an outside job five days/week, so I don’t have the time to devote on more than one.

7. Ching Ya on October 26th, 2009 10:39 am

   For now, only 1. I had to quit another because of some scheduling issues. However, I’m planning to be slightly productive next year, a chance to try something new on a site. Will see. ^^

   I voted for 3 because that is all I could think of. I am pretty sure I only have 3 left. I sold a few recently.

9. Ali Hale on October 26th, 2009 11:00 am

   Only one active, but I’ve got two dormant ones (actually, four if you count a personal one and one which I started and never got off the ground…)

10. BloggerDaily on October 26th, 2009 11:11 am

    I run different blogs fro different niches and reasons =)

11. Barb D. on October 26th, 2009 11:13 am

    I have 2 blogs–one on a free platform, the other one is paid-hosted. Funny, but the free one is the one that gets traffic…guess it has to do with the content topic being more popular on that one, plus I have 2 great incoming links. Links really do help a lot!

12. Young on October 26th, 2009 11:15 am

    I have been blogging at two blogs, one written in English, the other written in Chinese. I dream one day that both of them will be as popular as Dailyblogtips.

13. --Deb on October 26th, 2009 11:29 am

    Four. One writing blog. One blog of knitting book reviews. One blog of weekly book discussions. One knitting/personal blog.

14. Dave Doolin | Website In A Weekend on October 26th, 2009 11:45 am

    More than 5, but most are moribund and I’m decommissioning most of them with taffic redirecting back to main sites. Not worth my time to keep up with.

15. Chris on October 26th, 2009 12:12 pm

    Just 2 for now, but I have and idea to start a couple niche blogs at some point.

16. casey on October 26th, 2009 12:27 pm

    I used to own three but one was doing better than all of them (http://www.celebritybeautybuzz.com) so i decided to dedicate all of my time to that one, and it’s paid off.

17. Brian Dusablon on October 26th, 2009 12:37 pm

    More than 5. Few are very active. Ideas for 3-5 more. Where does all the time go?

18. Jacques//An1ken on October 26th, 2009 12:41 pm

    Well I recently started up my Blog Creativeoverflow.net – A Design Blog for Anything creative.

    Its been going really well and I am determined to make it work full time.

    I only have 1 blog at the moment but, I am sure it will multiple as time goes along.

    Jacques

19. justbloglah on October 26th, 2009 12:41 pm

    I am running only 1 blog.

20. Blake @ Props Blog Reviews on October 26th, 2009 1:02 pm

    I’m only running 1 blog right now, but my wife and I have been discussing starting one for her about high fashion.

    @Daniel – I would love to see the followup posts about the poll results and what you think the result mean or how the results do or don’t effect us.

21. Hesham on October 26th, 2009 1:14 pm

    I have voted for more than 5 blogs, my recent blog is FamousBloggers.net and a corporation blog and Social Network for Making Money Online Tips built on the contributions of its authors.

22. Harsh Agrawal on October 26th, 2009 1:44 pm

    I have 4 blogs and all 4 of them are active and 3 more are lined up..

23. ajaxus on October 26th, 2009 1:59 pm

    How about 20?

24. Gabe | freebloghelp.com on October 26th, 2009 2:34 pm

    I wrote an article on a similar topic a few weeks back. I suggest most new bloggers start with one before starting other blogs. Even a single blog can consume a blogger full time while learning all the basics. Juggling multiple blogs is a recipe for disaster in the early stages.

25. John Samuel on October 26th, 2009 3:14 pm

    I own 5 blogs on a single domain, but I am concentrating on only one of my blogs

26. tsitalia on October 26th, 2009 4:08 pm

    Just one up to know but I’m working on other 3

27. Steve on October 26th, 2009 5:19 pm

    I maintain 3 blogs. It’s a lot of work to maintain any more.

28. Max on October 26th, 2009 5:42 pm

    I run 2 blogs, 1 full-time, the other with periodic updates.

    I have others that are in various stages of development, but only 2 that are worth declaring as blogs at the moment.

    I have a full-time job as well, so 1 is like a second part-time job, and the other is a hobby that I work on whenever possible.

    I actually need more time to dedicate to my blogs, but what can you do.

29. Chipper Dave on October 26th, 2009 6:27 pm

    I currently manage 2 active blogs but also have 4 others that are inactive and I no longer update. It’s all I can do to update the 2 of them. I keep the other 4 around for historical sake and in the chance I might go back to them someday.

30. John B. Moss on October 26th, 2009 8:22 pm

    I’ve just started my blog, so haven’t had enough experience to go for more – yet. I’m still at the stage where a ‘Blogging Buddy’ would be VERY helpful.

    I am using b2evolution, and I’m finding out there are other blog platforms, some of them quite popular. However, I have what I have and am making every attempt to use it well.

    Thank you for providing such a helpful place to learn. We can always learn, and your help is appreciated!

31. BWI on October 26th, 2009 9:25 pm

    Wow. I was a little surprised to see that so far most people own more than five. I only own four myself, but have put up far more than five for clients. In fact the last three website I have build included blogs.

32. Malini on October 26th, 2009 10:15 pm

    I have one active one and 2 dormant ones that could become active as soon as next month. Lets see how it goes

33. Eric C on October 27th, 2009 12:47 am

    1 to be 2 eventually.

34. V.C on October 27th, 2009 1:00 am

    I’m running 5 blogs but I just write 1, the others are autoblog.

35. hokya on October 27th, 2009 3:53 am

    hi, i am currently running 3, all of them are manual blog, but only one of them gave me a revenue because of its English language….

    man, i thought English-languaged blog is the best

36. Ben on October 27th, 2009 8:18 am

    Currently posting on 4 blogs but plan to go down to 1 that will include the content of the other 3.

37. Anand Srinivasan on October 27th, 2009 4:49 pm

    4+ are all static now as I no longer update..I write regularly only on two of them..

38. nethall.gr on October 27th, 2009 6:17 pm

    I’ve got 3 blogs, the one is fully automated and the other two are hand written. The automated gets more traffic than the others

39. Lee Ka Hoong on October 28th, 2009 4:09 am

    I own more than 5 blogs, but recently I just update my main blog. Seems that most of the people have more than 5 blogs.

40. ixod on October 28th, 2009 5:06 am

    I own 20 blogs with different niche, most are active but not updated. It is difficult to update and manage a lot of blogs but honestly I really like blogging

41. Paula from Affiliate Blog Online on October 29th, 2009 9:18 am

    It’s interesting that (as of today) the poll shows that most people have more than 5 blogs. I have over 20 blogs and as the previous commentor mentioned, it is difficult to maintain that many blogs.

    I think it is a bit of a habit amongst internet marketers to think that the next thing they try will be the one that makes the real money…hence creating one blog after another. We did the exact same thing but realized some time into it that it doesn’t work. Concentrate on one or two blogs at the most and you will have more success. This was the turning point for us and when we finally started making big money on the internet.

42. MorningErection on October 29th, 2009 11:01 am

    I just started my first one and most likely my only one. I struggle with posting every other day and coming up with new ideas for my posts. I guess one day I would like a blog that made some $$.

43. Lia Qistina on November 2nd, 2009 3:35 am

    For me, i own just ONE blog, and that is my only blog ..

    I think owning one active blog is fine, because we can put a lot of focus, energy and passion into it.

44. Jonathan Frei -- OrdinaryTime on November 2nd, 2009 8:29 pm

    3, but only one gets any attention.

45. Lyribora on November 3rd, 2009 2:01 am

    I have 5 blogs but only 2 remain active. So hard to manage them very well..

Got something to say?
