I have one main blog. Now I am not a big fish by any means, but my blog now gets 500 uniques per day, whether I post or not.
That took time to build up to......I imagine most do not have the patience to get to this level. |
HI DEAR,
I'm really enamoured by skinnyninja's post. You see I'm also new to blogging. Several attempts years back were not sustained. Now, I've discovered the benefits of blogging including the material benefits and I'm not looking back. The guys that talked me into this are really motivational speakers. They don't tell you everything. You get to discover most things yourself. So when Ninja mentions 2-3 years, I guess she means persistence. Now I'm concentrating on building great content. My model is Steve Pavlina. Yes blogging is more than good writing. It requires great marketing skills. Man, its a lot of work. I'm committed to learning.
Any way the way like Steve says is to have a goal and work your goal. Even now I feel like quit. But you know, I will never quit. Instead I wake up working my site-www.withoutsilverspoon.org. Patience and a willingness to learn is very important.
