Every once in a while, I receive emails from people who stumble upon my blog and got hooked. They tell me how they got to my blog and why they liked it and eventually add me to their daily reads or RSS feeds.
For those who do not blog yet, (most of the time) I am able to convince them to go blogging as well. For those who already have an existing blog, I introduced them to the wonderfull world of Google AdSense and tell them how they can earn from their passion that is blogging.
On some occassions though, I get emails from non-bloggers asking me tips on how to earn from blogging. Apparently, they are more interested about the earning part instead of the blogging part. That is something else altogether.
… everytime someone comes to me about blogging not for the love of blogging but for profit, 99% of the time, that venture does not succeed. First, because you need regular readers who will support you (via comments) and add interaction within your blog. Second, no one will link back to you when they see that your blog is all about profits. Linking is an essential ingredient in SEO. Third, you need a sizable amount of legit traffic to your blog via the search engines and this takes more effort again.
AdSense is great. I know a lot of bloggers who are earning more in AdSense than their day job but all that was because they had blogging as a passion first rather than an online cash-cow.
ask ko lang if will i ever earn if i used multiply? thanks
