This may sound like a simple question. But how fast can you build a web site with 1 page, 10 pages, 100 pages or 100,000 pages?

See the last one is where I get set back. But in all reality all websites now a days are database driven websites. So all you really have to do is have a database full of content that you can build a website around.

Let’s say you get a database with 30k records. Now you need to plan out what the flow will be and how the users will navigate through your site. Basic site stuff I know, but with a lot of data in the database it will require you to not just dump out the db data on screen but to present it to the users in an organized way so that they can make sense of it.

This is what I have been working on. Last month when I got some money from my other sites,  I bought 9 domains. Then I bought a packaged deal of some databases. This package had about 5 or 6 databases in it. Not bad, since it only cost me $12. I also bought another db package. And there are a lot of people out there selling databases. Be sure to search around or you will pay way too much for the data.

The second db package included a lot of 1,000 miscellaneous databases for $100. Not a bad deal, since most of the db’s had around 60k records each. Oh yeah, I also bought two more -kind of a two for one deal. Total record size of that was 14 million, but it was all the same type of data. So the 14 million would go on one site as opposed to the 1,000 I mentioned.

Ok, so now I have a ton of data and only 9 domains. Well, its only 9 new domains right now. But after I build those I will expand and I have the data to do so.

So back to my original point -I can build a 100,000 page database pretty fast considering the same amount of work will go into building a 100 page site as it would a 100,000 page site. But now I have more site pages that can be indexed into the search engines. And I can put links to other sites on those pages or I can sell links on them.

How many sites do you have? Are you selling links on those sites? Are you using your indexed pages to put links on them to point them to your other more important sites?
