emigre: Thanks for asking. I don’t own and maintain 15 blogs. I own and maintain 15 websites. A few of the websites - I haven’t touched them since 2 years. Where as a few others (blogs and newsletters) require constant work.

What I usually do is set things up and then hire someone to maintain the momentum.

I rather prefer blogs to usual websites. My blogs earn me more money than my websites too. But blogs also require more time investment.

If I were starting all over again, I would focus on just 1-2 websites instead of the 15 I now have. Build blogs on them and later develop a community around them…

You’re obviously a fast worker honed through the experience of keeping track of more than 15 blogs.

I imagine a fair number of these blogs do not need your constant direct input, sites which are organic in nature where visitors or invited guests provide much of the content such as forums or gaming and video related sites?

Rainer: Thanks

I have a decent reading speed of 400-600 words per minute (depending on what I read). For improving reading speeds, I recommend “Power Reading” by Rick Ostrov.

Here are a few statistics from my Google Reader on my A-Pile of blogs: In the last 30 days, I have read 322 items. Thats about 11 posts a day. Definately readable in 15 minutes a day (as most blog posts are certainly less than 1 page (300 words) in length).

You are on my personal “every day list” and I am sure to need more then 15 minutes to read just your posts.
So it seems to me you’re a very fast reader

I also would be interested in your “13 blogs” list!
