Why on earth do you blog?
What’s up with blogging anyway? The first time I heard about it was like two years back. I read and heard about blogs at the time but only got involved when my sis introduced me to this blog service from blogger.com. When I first started I did not even know what to write. Am I supposed to tell what I did today? Should I tell personal stuffs like how’s my relationship with my wife or perhaps how much money is left in my bank? It turned out that you could blog about anything. There’s no set of rules really. Of course you better be cautious about giving away personal info.
I find blogging as a sort of therapy. Almost like I’m talking to another person. My audience are my readers and myself. It’s a channel for me to relax the mind and body. Like a spa! Well almost.
And I found out another reason to blog too. You can monetize your blog. Some do it to the extent of pro-blogger. Others like me do it for fun and make some pocket money. It’s nice to be able to pay for your hosting and stuff. I would not say I specifically blog for money. But I like to make money while I blog!
If you have started blogging and are looking for ways to do it, why not try paid posting services. I found out one of the good ones like Smorty.com. They provide services for any advertisers who are looking to increase their web presence by getting help from bloggers to provide links back to their site. Bloggers make money when they create unique posts for them. That’s a win-win situation of course.

The best answer to silence people who say blogging is a waste of time is “i get to work in the comfort of my own home, be my own boss and earn a potentially unlimited amount of money”
mmmm.. 6 bucks in the pocket.. hehe!
Yeah, welcome to the club…
Yep, done this earlier but I agreed with what you wrote in the beginning…blog for a cause…and one cause is to get paid to blog…
It’s therapeutic and when you can money out of it , why ever not
Well folks, it sure is good to do something you like and make money at the same time? I’d say that’s a perfect combination.
