I have a few autoblogs...because I like them. I have one that I set up one day and have done no promotion with. It auto posts articles and youtube videos and I am steadily increasing in organic traffic each month. It's been up for about 4 months and now up to 200 uniques a day. Not bad for no promotion whatsoever. So I thought I'd let you'll know what I use for plugins and you can add your better ones and even better theme. I get clicks daily and I'm not even using a adsense optimized theme (I want my blogs to look natural enough and not clouded to the extreme with adsense) so I'm sure you guys can do better. I'm averaging 50c-$1 a day per blog after about 2 months of letting them sit so I'm sure you can get better if you start promoting right away.
I use the unique article wizard plugin for posting articles, but for more obscure niches, you are going to want a different autoposter as this I have noticed is only best for popular/broad niches. I use the wpyoutube plugin [the free version as each blog is a mix, and not strictly a video blog] to post youtube videos automatically. I use the Platinum SEO plugin and load my keywords that I pruned from Keyword Elite into it along with a keyword rich title and description. I use the YPN-Adsense plugin to automatically add adsense to my posts in random spots so the people do not become ad blind to my ads =P.
On some of my blogs I use more plugins while on others these are the only ones I use. I don't show ads on my homepages for any of these blogs and I still get clicks within the posts. Perhaps I would get more if I put them on my homepage, but again, I like to keep the blogs halfway decent like so people stay on them longer.
I do no promotion whatsoever with these blogs. I don't even put their links in my sigs or do bookmarkings...nothing. I have it now where I can set up one of these blogs in an hour or less and forget about them. Autoblogs are great for adsense earnings because they do all the work for you once you put the initial effort in. $30/month per blog is not bad either for no promotion.
I had someone ask for more detailed explanation so I am going to include my response to them here in case anyone else needs it:
Sure.
While I am setting up my blogs, I have keyword elite gather the keywords for me, but you can use the google keyword tool or any other free tool to generate keywords if you prefer.
Since you already have a hosting, if you have Fantastico, you can automatically install wordpress with it. I use domains that have the keyword[s] I am targeting in it and try to keep it at two to three words [if I'm using the word 'the' or 'a' or something small like that].
Then install wordpress on it.
Install the minimum plugins. The link to the ones I mentioned is here:
http://rapidshare.com/files/161266554/AutoBlogz.zip
Platinum SEO plugin
http://anonymizeit.com/?http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/platinum-seo-pack/
I have not updated the folder with the new versions, but in the new wp, you can do that automatically]. If your niche is really obscure, you may try the caffeinated content plugin, or another autoposting plugin. Any plugin that will post content related to your niche.
Activate them.
Go to the Manage--> Categories link.
Add keyword rich categories. At least the broad ones and then more narrow.
Then go to the UAW plugin under the Settings link.
Enter the required information [self explanatory that page should be]. When it tells you which categories to select, select all the ones that you added. Do NOT select uncategorized as you will then be getting posts that are not at all related to your niche. Click on update and test and it will tell you if it was able to make a post. [You can delete that test post if it is success too].
Then go to the Adsense plugin and add your info there [again self explanatory] and save. I use 2 units per post, but you can select 3 if you like. I also only use the smaller ad units, but again you can choose as you prefer].
Then go to Manage --> WP Videotube and add the keywords you want the videos to be related to. The free version allows you to add 3 keywords and at what intervals you want them to post. I usually space it out between keywords. I put one at every 8 hrs, one at every 10, and one at every 12 hours and I humanize it.
Find a free theme related to your niche and upload it to your sever and activate it. Click on widgets in your admin panel and make sure that you have your tag cloud, recent posts, and categories in the very least showing in your side bar.
Gather your keyword list that you generated and load it into the Platinum SEO plugin. Add the title and description as well. Save.
Completed. Move on to the next blog. And/Or promote that one for more traffic.

CPA & Squidoo money making guide
the CPA & Squidoo money making guide
Now this is a short method.... short because i dont want people stealing my niche (dont worry you wont steal my money) or just copying it exactly you need to add a twist to make big money on this.
1st - CPA you need free offers of anything.... you choose your niche or category etc but needs to be free (i think).
2nd - You need a squidoo account to make some lenses and preferably some squid experience.
Now if you have these two thing you can move on...
Phase one choose your niche (for example free samples of soap)
Now your lense will be in the shopping category (works best) and needs to have a good catchy (longer) title and short url (url isn't that important)
Next you need to add some content (make sure you use an image and text format etc)
Now time for tag research to get some traffic..... go and search for lens similar to yours.... and literally copy all of their tags (if they are all relevant).... Eventually this will mean that your lens will appear on other peoples lenses in the 'explore related pages section' meaning you get good traffic for free....
Your lens must be maxed and i suggest you don't have the explore related pages add on to your lens as you may loose conversions but its up to you.
Enjoy (Oh and i setup my lens the other night in 30 mins and left it came back today and found i had 20 clicks (only had 5 tags) and 4 conversions meaning i made $5.60 (small money but i hadnt even optimised let alone finished the lens yet)

Easiest 50-100 pound I know!
This involves a little work, but it's a great method.
Ok Here's what you do.
Go to the for sale section of CraigList or any other advertising place
Advertise a few exotic cars for sale, nothing too crazy maybe a mercedes, lexus etc. List them for 20% under market value.
put a number to Voice mail and say you've reached such and such autos please visit the link in our ad for more info on the car Etc.. or say it in the voicemail and make sure you repeat it slowly for them to write it down. You can get free voicemail from http://laservoicemail.com or alternatively signing up for both Sipgate for the free land line with voicemail and Piovy to make free landline calls both for free at poivY and http://www.sipgate.co.uk/user/index.php. You'll only need phoner lite if you have vista 'cos the Sipgate softfone software doesn't work yet with vista but you can get all the settings you need for phoner lite from your Sipgate account info you'll recieve! here's the link for Phoner lite http://www.phoner.de/PhonerLiteSetup.exe
Link the Ad or type in your landing page on the ad. Craiglist is apparently cracking down on links
Make a landing page with that car with a full description of the vehicle make it look legit. You can get and make free websites from loads of places, just google or got Webs.com - Free website, free hosting, free webpage - Make a web site with photo albums, blogs, videos, forums and more! and set up an account and make a free one there!
In huge blue lettering say 'Find out if you qualify for 100% financing on this car. '
There are many car offers/affilates etc that you can link this to. They usually pay 8-12$
This works great and I'll tell you why.
Once the people that call find out they can actually get a car loan they usually convert and buy another car down the line. Which causes you no hassles anywhere
You're actually not screwing advertisers.
This will also work with insurance advertisers.
Remember to hide your traffic source. They will bitch about the traffic being from CraigList unless you link directly from your website! or externally like a published adertising paper!
What's nice about this when the advertiser calls the people saying I was looking at a car and I wanted to know about financing.
They're not going to hear like some guy told me he would give me a free porn dvd if I filled out this offer. (you know what I'm getting at)
Good Luck Guys
