Creating 100's of sites, a few products for each

[tml89]

After reading on old thread Im under the impression that the stragety of creating hundreds to thousands of websites targetting a few products for each site. Hoping for a few dollars per day per site, is a viable and good stragety.

But...

For a given site, how would it look?
If you were targeting say golf clubs, would you build 1 site for a particular brand of irons? Or sell just irons, but different brands?

If you did this, wouldnt you have to create a bunch of content, do link campaigns, SEO etc for each site?

Anyone?

Build whatever suits your working style :)

I have 1 flagship plus 2 small sites. I plan on building a couple more flagships and a bunch more small sites. Part of my desire for the flagships is because I want to build something of actual value rather than just to make money(ha!) - the more sites you have, the more effort on separate linking campaigns and advertising it will involve.

I had one small site that I put it back into the flagship site because I didn't want to be bothered with starting from 'afresh'. This way my small site is really just a subsection of the flagship and benefits from the PR, links, etc. It's netting me about $100-$150 this month, just by having it up. Eventually I'll want to move it into its own, but for now, no time!

[edited] my minisites are based on datafeeds, so they actually have hundreds of pages of database driven content.

have you seen google "hurt" these?
I saw some posts outside about dupe content penalties from data feeds?
