Ok so I am new to website design and want to know if I am on the right track. I currently have 8 websites all theme in one Caribbean Country, such as 1 food, 1 real estate, 1 search engine with Co-op, one about a locality, 1 about travel etc, you guys get the jist.

All has unique content but my major concern is how Google will view my sites. Can anyone give me some Good Bad Analysis on the following:

-All sites are hosted with GoDaddy
-Four sites have a similar site structure
-All sites are listed in my Google Sitemaps Account
-All sites have inbound links from a network that sells 250 links for 24.95
-All sites have a minimum of 50 pages
-Christmas Tree interlinking, i.e the Last Site Links to all sites, so the first site links to no other site.
-All sites designed by Front Page 2002
-All sites use Google Adsense
-All sites use CSS
-All sites are part ecommerce selling ebooks.
-All sites have public whois info

Ok if there are any negatives here and more importantlt a list of WHAT NOT TO DO'S when one decides to put out just about 50 - sixty sites

Ok is that no one has thoughts on this or what..? I have about three or more sites cooking and am scared to drop them on my sitemaps?

>>-All sites use Google Adsense

well assuming its the same account then google know they are all connected so there is no real point trying to disguise the connection in other ways.

i have groups of sites that interlink together, for useability reasons of my own design, they seem to do well in the others (SE's) but google doesn't rank them that well - although that is probably for other reasons, the users seem to like them though and with that in mind i don't really care [they don't really make money - they are vanity/ego sites really]

One thing that you don't mention is whether they have any independent, natural incoming links.

Bought links aren't necessarily bad, but without at least some natural links you might not stay in the index very long.
