Use several different seo plugins, instead of just one, use several social media sharing plugins, instead of just one, and so on.
So:
- Network of 200 Wordpress blogs
- 20 different themes
- 3 different seo plugins (one per 67 or so sites)
- 3 different social media plugins (one per 67 or so sites)
This could be all mixed up, so there would be no single website, based on the same code.
So, in general, the question here would be: Does it make sense to make networks of Blogs different, not only with themes, but plugins too? Or does it probably does not make a difference at all?
Thanks.

My honest advice to you is put the thing on a single WP install. Simply use categories for all of your girls and post regularly in those sections. This seems to me to be the most reasonable way of doing things. You'll also save yourself 2k on domain names and not have to worry about a clusterfuck of other things (such as large backups, transferring domain names, etc.).
I'd create one single website and do it all from there.
If you were to do them on different installs, you're correct in saying that diversity is a good idea. I try to avoid creating two sites that are identical, so I change the font, image sizes, number of posts per page, plugins used, etc. etc. as well.

I've seen a network of 50 sites like this, and most of the traffic was coming from Google.com, and the rest was traffic trading partners / sites. What would be the method of getting a lot of search engine traffic to SmartCj website, trade traffic, and dont get penalized. What would be the best way to "optimize" a site like this, and make it profitable.
Google.com / search engine traffic -> traffic trading, based on these visitors -> $$$
Google.com / search engines would be a "driving force" here...

I don't know enough about SmartCJ to comment on this. If people are getting penalized using it, I'd probably say it's only a matter of time before Google takes a dislike to however it handles things. Stick to things that work is my advice, I guess.

There are two networks of pornstar blogs:
1) My Pornstar Blogs - Daily Updated Pornstars Since 2008! - 1206 blogs total.
2) Pornstar Blog World - 259 blogs total
All websites can be viewed, and compared, but they are all based on the same model (meaning, set 1 and 2, not all of them together). Websites 1 are older, and they receive regular updates. The first network of websites gets around 400k uv a day, and 40% of traffic comes from Google.com. The second network of sites, receives only around 7,5k uv a day, with 18% of traffic from Google.com (other search engines too, but these are not included).
One thing, that could be done, in order to improve performance of the smaller network (this is the question here), would be to schedule posts, and update all websites, at least once per month (I understand that twice a month would be better, once a week even better, every five day, even better, and so on).
All websites are connected to the same social media accounts. You said, that this is not good for the websites. Would you just delete it? The thing with this, should be, that accounts receive a lot of automatic followers from the websites (and very relevant, interested in the sites), and it would be a lot easier to promote these websites, on the included social media accounts. Would you say something like this is not good, and not worth it? I think, that accumulating a lot of relevant followes, on all social media accounts, that can be useful, can be a very good thing. Would you delete it all, anyway (follow us on social media section), and just dont worry about the social sites at all? Does it really affects the rankings of the websites in google.com, and other search engine sites?
What else can be done with the #2 network, in order to make it as successful, as the network #1. Regular updates, are probably the most important, but what else can be done here, in order to improve the search engine results?

The thing I was getting at with the sharing of multiple linked sites was that it's not a good idea if you have pretty low quality stuff. Some clients like to interlink projects that are not related and it looks bad. There's no harm in having lots of sites that are related to each other doing things, but I'm definitely against the concept of connecting the dots yourself. If you use one social media account to post about things, that's not the end of the world. So I wouldn't worry about it too much: I just wanted to hammer away the idea that having 30 unrelated blogs linked together in the blogroll is a good idea.
I can't really comment much further without knowing the structure of your networks. It's a pretty detailed question that like the previous one would require a lot of input. I think your best bet right now is to start one big megasite, something akin to Free Ones, and start building on that. A well built blog with lots of content can bring a lot of authority, and if you handle it correctly given your dedication to the industry, you shouldn't have much issues bringing in millions of hits a month.
Singular blogs are great, but if you have quality content and a lot of time, build one big site. Find a nice theme on Wordpress, customize it to look real good with multiple pornstars on it and go crazy. You'll be a kingpin in no time at all. |
