Over the past few years I met and talked to so many bloggers that nowadays I don’t even remember their names and If I do they don’t blog anymore.
Almost every one of them I met was super hyped about making money with blogging and be debt free, but when reality hits they can’t handle it.
Blogging to some is joke, to some is just a tool to write their own opinion, and to others is just like any other business. Most people read online about “How To Make Money Online” or “How To Make Money With Blog” and they read 10 articles and think they can do it too, well I am sorry it’s not working that way.
I am not saying that it’s not possible to make money and live from blogging, what I am saying is that having expertise in Social Media does not make you Blogging expert. And even if you know all about SEO, Writing, Blogging, Social Media and whatever not..you are still not going to make more than $1 per day. Trust me! I know.
Not trying to be a smart ass and say that only certain people can make living from blogging, that is so not true. Main thing in blogging is to have passion, devotion, be organized, be able to think out of the box and don’t think about crap load of money you will make.
From those I met they were blogging for lets say 1-5 months and still after 5 months they make 15c per day!
That’s horrible dude!
But do they ask them self: What the fuck am I doing wrong?
Nope! Or maybe they do but don’t have that passion to research or ask the right person.
Most people now days that I meet know that, I mastered the way to make blogging part of my living, I can pay off my car, my loans, my house and bunch of other things and when they ask me how did you do it?
For a second I think: “Can I really tell my whole strategy that I worked on for 5-6 years in 15 minutes?” Sure I can… but how important is that to them? 15 minutes?
Now you know that blogging isn’t just those 15 minutes of reading or listening to others that are somewhat successful.
On daily basis I comment at least on 20-30 blogs, I write 5-15 blog posts,write at least 20-50 tweets, I update my Facebook page(s), manage people I hired to blog for me, tell them what to write and more
…and even now after so many years, I go back to few blogs that I read on daily basis to learn what’s new out there , how to improve my blogging skills.
Now, I don’t want to discourage you , if you are blogger and tell you to do the same…or learn about blogging for 5-6-7 years and come back, all I am trying to say is that blogging isn’t a joke…it takes practice, time and most importantly passion.
I like to help, if you have questions please do comment below…tell me that I am Jack Ass…Blog Guru…Bitch..Ignorant…Intelligent… whatever you comment, one thing you should remember. It’s going to be your opinion…and I might learn from it…
