Hi

I currently own a large amount of domain names, am asking for help trying to find a system that will allow me to quickly upload them, each with there own self-updating content, and a few ads on a landing page, similar to a parked page. 
Before you come back to me with comments of spamming, or lazy money-grabber or the like, please read the following that explains the reasons why I am attempting to find this solution.

I bought my first few domain names over 10 years ago with some great ideas, but lacked the capability of making the sites myself, and so decided to employ a designer / developer team to create my vision.  However, the team I chose walked away with half the money and did not provide the solution that was agreed. After this disappointment, I employed another designer who said he also did development, but after several months telling me he was getting close, then admitted that what I wanted was beyond his capability. So I started to learn to code after deciding to do it myself, maybe not the most sensible thing for a quick turnover, but at least I would be in charge!

On to the present day, I still own the original domain name, plus a load more, now over 1000, each with a specific idea behind them, although some of the ideas have now been done (and are advertised on TV to rub my nose in it!) 
Meanwhile, I had my domain "parked" at Godaddy, and whilst I was getting click-throughs, I was barely earning anything, even from 1000+ domains, so I am looking for a method where I can have my own ads and earn my own revenue, NOT SO THAT I CAN MAKE A TON OF MONEY, but rather to earn some or all of the cost of annual domain renewals. As you can imagine, I am considerably out of pocket having owned them for so long. 

Ideally I need a system where I can upload multiple domains in a few clicks, have content feeds (which I can set for different subject areas, with their own keywords) and all majority of click revenue goes to me. Ideally there would be some kind of CMS so that I could add content as and when I want to, and if possible to have additional users be able to add content as well to increase the amount of content over the sites. If this is not possible then suggestions for anything close would really help me right now.
This then allows me time to continue learning my code, and decide which ideas to pursue whilst drastically reducing my outlay, then giving me time to implement some of the domains into actual site, and see if they work

Are the any implications which I may have missed, for example SEO?

Apologies for the length of the post, but it was really important that you guys did not think that I am just trying to get information on how to set up spam sites. 

Thanks for reading and I will look forward to some suggestions

Why did you decide to ask this question on this forum? It's for those who design and define systems, not for those who are "trying to find" them.

Hi Grant.

Sorry for not replying earlier. I did not see your reply come in. other forums send an email notification when there is a reply but I didn't get one here.
I had to put his on hold as I had some paid work that took up a lot of my time, but possibly looking again at it now. I been working with Laravel a lot recently and came across PyroCMS which certainly supports multi-domain management on a paid product but has a community version for free as well.

I'm still not 100% sure what pages to add, I guess I may put different ones on each site, but if I have the ability to manage them easily from a central CMS that would make it quicker.
I'm no further forward on a multi-upload solution (unless PyroCms does it, still looking into it)

did you get any further with upgrading yours to html5?

Interesting!

I've been wanting a minimalistic CMS that can be easily deployed and is cheap or free for some time now.

I've built a web page/site generator in the past that takes a previously defined HTML website template and let's one configure it with a GUI front end then generates the complete site. Then just FTP it to the hosting site and it's live. I been thinking about upgrading it for HTML5 and the latest web technologies and making it a product and/or perhaps use it as a teaching means (You get this then look in the code to see exactly how it's done sort of thing).

What specific content pages would you want to be able to add to a live site?

- Grant
