In my last post Backyard Local Web Sites Produce Consistent Income, I talked about taking a small concept or theme and creating a site based in your local area. I also mentioned that you don’t have to use Wordpress or be a rocket scientist to created a “Mini-Site” that produces online income.
This post is part of the How to Build Income Online Series!
Awhile back I stumbled on 19 Pages, a completely FREE script to product mini web sites in record time. It cost NOTHING, and you don’t have to sign up for somebody’s “list” just to get it either. It’s a one-click simple honest download you’ll be proud to tell your friends about. You can have a mini-web site setup with quality content in under 30 minutes (if you can write!). Sometimes Wordpress and other scripts (BANS) is just WAY TOO overblown for a simple idea you can quickly create a mini web site for.
Literally, just follow these steps:
- Download the zip file (free)
- Upload to your server
- Load up the site in a browser (as admin/admin)
- Change your password
- Edit your homepage
- Choose your theme (any of the 5 free included ones
- Add additional content pages
- Monetize sidebar / header / footer
- You’re Done!
I want you to understand how EASY this software is to use. After your first upload in this is what you see:
There is absolutely NO database required AT ALL. This script is lightweight, has pretty (permalink like) URL’s, and is FAST!
Here’s the very basic admin screen:
19 Pages contains only the essentials necessary for mini-site development. You can use one of 5 included templates, and add and edit pages and content. Pages added are included in navigation. The entire site can be easily monetized by modifying the template with banners, ads, or adsense in the header, footer, sidebar, or above or below the content.
Editing pages is simple and easy. Give them a title, edit the content, and you can even add custom meta descriptions and keywords for each page.
I’m sorry - this is the easiest NO BRAINER I’ve ever seen! My GRANDMA could make mini-sites with 19 pages! You have nothing to lose and everything to gain - try this software out for quick and easy web sites today.
I made a test web site in just 10 minutes (haven’t monetized it yet), check it out here: Toledo Hall Rental

Hey!
This is a very interesting post, and I’m going to take a look at the software. I’m just wondering what you see as the benefits of using this say over using wordpress to do the same thing?
Thanks,
Jackie

@Real Keyword Research - The benefits are the fact that it’s a “set it and forget it” method for creating small mini-sites. No more worrying about updating wordpress, themes, plugins, incompatibilities, no database - NONE of that! If you’re thinking a site needs things like plugins, RSS, categories, tags, and on and on - you probably should use Wordpress for that. But (as I’ve found out) one person can only maintain so many Wordpress sites before the upkeep and maintenance is overwhelming!

Thanks for the quick reply. You find you are able to get search engine rankings and traffic using these small sites? I imagine you are targeting keywords with little competition?

Yes and yes, although you don’t have to. You could do a targeted Adwords campaign, build links, or many other things for traffic - but keywords (especially local) with little or no competition are of course the path of least resistance (work wise)…

I’m feeling kind of retarded today ~ I really am a wordpress girl ~ but this sounds very interesting to me. I have uploaded this to my server on a subdomain, but I’m not sure how to get the site to load in the browser. I keep getting an error message or the index of what is in the index of what is actually in the folder instead of the site itself. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
jackie

@Real Keyword Research - you need to supply the actual error message. What’s the URL you’re testing at?

Hey John,
This sounds really cool. I have a few niches I’d like to go after but are probably not in the realm of being able to create an ‘authority’ site with them as such.
This sounds perfect for the job. I’ll be giving it a whirl.
Cheers
