    Hi ,

    Currently I am running 4,5 blogs at blogger . these includes Forwarded emails, funny pics, jobs, fashion and classified.

    I am focusing now to open small business website and change my personal blogging to professional and induct people to write for me, of course I will be paying for this.

    For this purpose, I wanted to have an independent CMS website through which people may join that web , select the blog on which they want to contribute and submit related articles/post. then these posts queued for approval and after approval posted directly on relevant blog and amount in credited in member's account.

    Moreover, as I will be having much content so I wanted to have printed version of my blogs as well in form of magazine, having different sections of all blogs. People from all over the world may be able to subscribe for the magazine, Initially, we will be distributing it free of cost, after that we might think of charging subscription fee,
    I need your suggestion whether will be possible to get sponsors who can bear the costs initially and what do you think about its feasibility ?

    and in your opinion how much capital will I need initially?

    Further suggestions will be highly appreciated. and anyone want to join me is also welcome :)

    Regards

    You want to turn a blog into a newsletter?

    To make it easier, why don't you just create and
    build an email list and send out a weekly newsletter?

    Just make sure that your newsletter is full of content.

    Paste your affiliate link in the resources section and people
    will click on them and if the offer is good and related, then
    people will purchase.

    Just make sure that your offers are related
    to what your newsletter is about
    and you'll make
    sales without asking for them.


    Best Regards,

    With a printed version your going to need a fulfillment house.

    I prefer Vervante.com They print it and ship it for you and you
    get charged at the end of the month.

    As far as your idea goes, it can work. Just know, that you get what
    you pay for. If your paying non-English writers $.02 per word, then
    your articles aren't going to be of the best quality.

    This can and usually is expensive.

    That's why I recommended an email newsletter.

    Good luck,
    Brain Copy

    Why are you using a blogger platform in preference to Wordpress? Blogger sites are not secure and can be closed down. If you are going to pour a lot of effort into it, I would suggest that you use Wordpress.
