Bloggers don’t earn money

Yeah. You read that right. Bloggers don’t earn money, their blogs do.

Okaie, a bit overboard. But before your punch lands on my nose, let me try to dodge and say the 'Why' clause too.

Blogs are the primary things bloggers make and build and not MONEY. I hear a lot of – ‘Earning through blogging’ and feel like laughing out loud on their faces.

Tweet for money, blog for money, eat for money...

For God’s sake, Is there something left for us to do not with the intent of earning.

Just because you(i point them) feel it is easy to earn from blogging, doesn’t make it a gold mine and the rest - idiots to ignore it.

Earning through blogging is lot more difficult and it calls for constant innovation and eternal creativeness.

Great authors sell great books and become rich. Great artists do great designs and earn in millions. Same is true for blogging. Hardwork always gets paid and nothing comes easy.

If you can’t take in what I just said, possibly you should take some time off to refocus and start blogging.

Blogging is sharing of thoughts, knowledge and providing excellent service through words. If you could give in your best, you open up opportunities. Down the line, you could capitalize this opportunity and become rich.

Right from the first post you publish, if you have money and money alone as your sole motive. You could see a dollar here and a dollar there but what you forget is, blogging started as and still is a medium of sharing.

Blogging is freedom. Blogging is fun.

Build your blog around strong (business) values, churn out great ideas, write passionately on whatever you feel like. Do it as professionally as you can. Ensure always your posts are of very high quality. Market it elegantly.

Only these are the things that warrants your mind space. Leave the rest to people who want to earn pennies.

Just don’t build your blog on dreams of earning money alone because that in itself would take the true beauty and the wow factor of your blog and also would impede your growth.

A right perspective at the beginning would help you in a long run and you could feel happy on what you done and even be rich.

What I ask of you is if you focus on blogging more, right from the beginning than money. Later on when your readers start trusting you, you could stand up to their believes and be proud of yourself.

Just imagine Google filling it’s homepage with flash ads, knowing, millions use its service now. That belief and trust is what any blogger yearns for and need to live up to. That would make you earn enough to live happily.

You are not blogging to use someone. You are blogging to help someone.

Did you know, when someone(something) provokes you, your mind opens up and you could write a decent post. I realized just now, that we could. That something which made me furious are the Google ads in my blog which most often show ‘ make money through blogging' kind of ads. $#%$.

Are you trapped in the ‘make money from blogging’ stuff. What keeps you focussed on what you believe? Share your thoughts/rants/opinions.
