BLOGGING AIN'T EASY
BY Vlog Johnson
BLOGGING AIN'T EASY. BLOGGING FOR PROFIT IS DAMN NEAR IMPOSSIBLE. YEAH, IT'S BEEN SAID BY BLOGGERS WITH BETTER STATS THAN MINE, SO IT'S TRUE.
A BLOGGER HOPES THAT OUT OF THE BILLIONS OF POTENTIAL VIEWERS ON THE INTERNET, THAT .0000001 PERCENT WILL LIKE THEIR RANTS. EASY, RIGHT? JUST GET A THOUSAND OR SO PEOPLE AN HOUR TO HIT YOUR BLOG AND YOU'RE RIDING HIGH. EASY, RIGHT? NOT EASY AT ALL.
COORDINATING THIS SITE WITH MY VIDEOS AT YOU TUBE AND CREATING ORIGINAL VLOG HOG PRODUCTIONS TAKES HOURS A DAY. HOURS. HOURS. HOURS.
SO, IF YOU ARE THINKING ABOUT BLOGGING FOR PROFIT, THINK ABOUT THAT. ALSO, FACTOR IN YOUR JOB, YOUR HEALTH, YOUR BABY'S MAMA DRAMA, EATING, SLEEPING, YOUR KIDS, BANGING, YOUR DRUG HABIT, AND ALL OTHER CHALLENGES IN LIFE. THEN, IF YOU CAN ADD HOURS OF BLOGGING INTO THAT SCHEDULE, I SAY GO FOR IT, FOLKS.
YOU MAY HAVE READ ABOUT THE KID WHO INVENTED A BLOG ABOUT CELLPHONES AND IS NOW MAKING $5000 A MONTH OR THE KID IN ENGLAND WHO INVENTED THE MILLION DOLLAR WEB PAGE AND ACTUALLY MADE A MILLION DOLLARS AND THINK, "THAT ASS WIPE COULD BE ME." OR SOMETHING.
THOSE FOLKS ARE EXCEPTIONS TO THE RULE. THE MAJORITY OF BLOGS DON'T MAKE ONE CENT. WHY? MOST PEOPLE DON'T HAVE THE TIME IT TAKES TO GET A MONEY MAKING BLOG OFF THE GROUND FLOOR. THEY HAVE PRIORITIES. THAT'S COOL BECAUSE MOST PEOPLE HAVE GOOD PRIORITIES LIKE WORKING OVERTIME, TEACHING THEIR KIDS HOW TO READ, AND WATCHING AMERICAN IDOL.
THEN, AFTER PUTTING IN ALL THE HOURS OR WRITING, RESEARCHING, POSTING, AND ALL OUT STEALING OF OTHER PEOPLE'S MATERIAL, YOU STILL GET 2 VISITORS ON YOUR HIT COUNTER OR AS IT SHOULD BE CALLED THE FLOP COUNTER.
WHAT NOW? DO YOU GIVE UP YOUR DREAM OF BLOGGING THE PERFECT BLOG FOR PROFIT? WELL, MOST PEOPLE DO. ALL I SAY IS, GIVE YOUR BEST EFFORT AND DON'T HATE ON THE OTHERS WHO STICK WITH IT AND HAVE SOME SUCCESS. YEAH, EVEN THOSE WHO BLOG AND POST NAKED PICTURES OF THEMSELVES TO BOOST THEIR RANKINGS OR THOSE WHO POST ENTIRE SEASONS OF TELEVISION SHOWS AT YOUTUBE THAT HAVE THOUSANDS OF SUBSCRIBERS.
TO BLOG FOR PROFIT TAKES PATIENCE, STRENGTH, TALENT, BUSINESS SENSE, COMMON SENSE, AND HOURS OF WORK. HOURS. HOURS. HOURS.
IF YOU THINK YOU'VE GOT ALL THAT, WELCOME TO THE CLUB AND CAN I BORROW SOME OF IT.
