CAN YOU MAKE MONEY BLOGGING?
Like with so many of the options you have in life or
different careers or even money making schemes, there are people who sit on top
and have made it. You hear success stories like a video goes viral on Youtube
and suddenly someone becomes a celebrity with million dollar contracts, a girl
gets noticed in a restaurant and becomes a big Hollywood star and so these
stories go, well the same can be said for blogging.
People are looking for the “make money from home” scheme ( and
boy there are many ) using the least amount of effort and time. It’s only
natural that blogging would become one such thing. Google “how to make money
blogging” and see how many results there are. There are literally millions of
pages on the topic. Somewhere inside you, you should realise that if there are
so many people with so many answers then there must be a catch. Why are there
so many people that know how to do this, yet you and I don’t really personally
know anyone in our immediate circles do we?
Ok, admittedly, I’m sure there are people out the making
cash from blogging and probably good money but for you and me, are these things
out of reach? Globally there must be
hundreds of millions of blogs, each with it’s own personality, writing styles
or lack thereof and so many platforms to use, so what chance do the rest of us
stand to make even 1 single cent?
You get told that you need to bounce off social networking
platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Pin It etc
etc. People will even tell you your posts need to be no longer than 300
words while others encourage you to write till you feel you’re done. Some will
tell you to add pictures to your blog posts to make your writing attractive and
again the lessons carry on and on. There are even people that will help you for
a small nominal fee ( that’s their get rich scheme I guess ) with advice to
make us all multi millionaires.
I believe like with so many other things in life that money
shouldn’t be your primary concern but rather your second or maybe none at all.
Whatever you choose to write on should be honest and from your experience and
most of all should be sincere and something you’re totally passionate about.
Write from your knowledge and from your heart and if you actually make money
from it, good for you.
Good luck and remember, if you’re not having fun doing it
then you probably shouldn’t be doing it at all.
