Building Referrals - Driving traffic to your home page. A question?

Help me

Today I am asking you for your thoughts and opinions. Over the weekend I listened to speakers talk about building traffic and awareness of your website through blogging. I was already aware the blogging can help you  with your google ranking. They also talked of a concept that I found intriguing and unusual.  I am still rolling it over in my mind and this is what I want your thoughts on. 

Concept

Have a lot of blogs. Each blog should focus on different topics built around related keywords. Post some of the same post on many blogs and tie them all together with keywords and cross linking. All the blogs should have links back to your primary web-page and the about sections should all be consistent.

Here is an example;

In the above paragraph I mentioned, building traffic, blogging, and increasing search ranking. These are keywords. If I have three different blogs that focus mainly on topics built around each keyword, I can post almost the same post on all three blogs at different times. Each blog is cross linked with each other and linked to my main web-page. The purpose is to drive you higher organically with your search rankings.

Here are my questions

Have you experimented with a strategic blog plan like this?

Does it work?

Is it ethical?

Are there any other downsides?

Do you have a success story?

I am interested to hear what you think about this.

Haven't tried it. But it sounds like a good concept.

It makes sense but I can hardly keep up with this one. I'll have to check back and see what others think of this.

Google calls it SPAM if you post the same thing to different web sites. And they will downgrade you if you do it. This sounds like it might be the same thing. I look forward to other opinions/clarifications.

I have tried that and it works even without the crosslinking.

The issue of Google considering multiple posts SPAM was brought up during the discussion. According to the speaker ,it is not considered SPAM if you own all of the content.
