Entertaining idea, as with many such plans, but I’d consider that in order for this to be worthwhile you’d have to have sufficient levels of attention and an equivalently itchy trigger finger in order to be able to pick up on similar stories with similar potential – as well as needing a significant level of automation for the infrastructure and framework to support doing this on a large scale.
By the same you’ve got the foundation in place (a centralised wordpress install, variable themes, hosting setup, etc etc), then any profit is going to be fractional, surely?
