Formula for Success in Blogging for Money

Making money from blogs is a real challenge. Many of us want or have blogs and would want to do it full-time. Stories of quitting their day job and enjoying life as a blogger fascinates us. Initially, it is a challenge finding an audience; and more challenging than that is finding revenue amid the sea of millions of blogs.

Successful blogging depends on following passion, finding audience, and gaining revenue.

Following passion. What are you passionate about? What are your hobbies? What are your interests? Having a blog about what you are passionate about making blogging fun and easy. Doing your passion does not feel like work, something heavy on your shoulders.

David Carson said, “The most important thing is to do something you love, whatever that is. It goes back to the definition of a good job, which is, if you could afford to, would you do the same work for free? If you would, you've got a great job -- if not, what the heck are you doing? -- you're going to be dead a long time. We're in a field that allows you to look forward to that work, not watch the clock, be creative, and even get paid for it. I've often thought I make a living from my hobby.”
