“She Sold a Website for $200,000. Nobody Knew She Built It.”

THE SILENT WEBMASTER — Episode 06
“He Runs 3 Niche Sites on 4 Hours a Week. Here’s the Exact System.”
Hosted by Paul M. Barber

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Four hours a week.
Three websites.
Eleven thousand dollars a month.

He doesn’t write every article. He doesn’t research every keyword. He doesn’t manually post to a single platform.

He built a system. And the system runs itself.

In Episode 6 of The Silent Webmaster, we go inside the content machine that makes consistent passive income actually… consistent. Because the #1 reason niche sites fail isn’t the niche. It’s not Google. It’s that the owner stopped publishing.

This episode fixes that.

🧠 WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:

→ The Rotation Model — how to run 3 sites on a rolling weekly cycle without burning out
→ How to batch keyword research in 20 minutes flat using AI
→ The content brief template you build once and use forever
→ How to schedule 30 days of content in one sitting using WordPress
→ Why predictable growth compounds faster than explosive growth
→ The exact hourly rate this operator earns — and why it changes everything

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

📋 THE 5-STEP BLUEPRINT:

1. Build one site first — get it to Mediavine before you scale to two or three
2. Create your content brief template once — tone, structure, word count, internal linking rules. Done. Forever.
3. Batch keyword research — one 20-minute session per active site per week. Never open a keyword tool mid-week again.
4. Schedule 30 days of content in one sitting — WordPress scheduling is free. Use it.
5. Add site two only when site one hits Mediavine. Add site three only when site two hits Mediavine. Growth compounds. Chaos doesn’t.
