Before you start another soon-to-be-deserted blog, you may wanna take a few minutes and think about what running a blog requires from you. Are you creative? Are you disciplined? Can you string together two paragraphs of coherent, selling text, with good spelling and grammar? Do you have a clue of how to target a few keyphrases and end up getting some half-assed SE traffic in the long run? No? Then fuck it. Blogs DO require work. And yes, they can bring great results, but just like with everything else, you need to persevere. If you start a blog, only to abandon it three weeks later, then you've simply washed three weeks of your time down the drain. In that case, stick with what you do best, whatever that is. Blogging simply isn't for everybody.
Lucky there are many type of blogs, a type of blog for every person. Not every blog type is good for SE, but they get traffic from other sources. :pimp

Yes, you did. What part of "it isn't for everybody" was unclear to you? The thread was meant to forewarn people that blogging takes time and effort, isn't as easy as most make it out to be, you have to know what you're doing and must be prepared to put in the required effort. And yes, that applies to everything, so if you want to generalize, of course you can. Nothing out there is for everybody, except perhaps breathing or something thereabout.

If you want to have succesful blog and earn 1000$ mothly with it,then you need to create content and promote it 12 hours every day.

thricer 09-09-2006 04:43 AM
I totally agree with you

Well be thankful you've got another 100 subjects to talk about:
Gallery submitting isn't for everybody
TGPs aren't for everybody
SEO isn't for everybody
Paysites aren't for everybody
LinkLists aren't for everybody
Spamming isn't for everybody
P2P isn't for everybody
Viral marketing isn't for everybody
PPC isn't for everybody


should I go on ? I just don't see the point in stating the obvious.

Very true. I had a blog once (BangBlog), and even though i see myself as a competent and coherent writer, i made no sales whatsoever with it, and couldn't be arsed continuing it when i had put weeks and weeks worth of effort into it for no reward.

I personally think you can make money with bad blogs and good blogs.

It's the blogs in the middle that dont pay in proportion to the effort.

If you have a really good interesting blog, that you spend alot of time and effort on, getting it just right. You can make very good wedge off it.

If you have lots of crappy blogs, but know how to get traffic to it. Dont spend much time on it apart from that, but use it just as another marketing tool, you can make money off them.

The inbetween blogs, where you spend time and effort writing stuff, but it isnt great and doesnt really hit the target audience. Thats when you can loose, because you may be putting in just as much time and effort as the first blog, but with the sales of one of the crappy blogs

That is actually something that can be applied to pretty much any kind of business. There are always three segments to any market, the low-price & low-quality but high volume, the high-price & high end but low volume, and the middle-of-the-roaders, which are exactly inbetween the other two, all aspects considered. It's often the middle segment that is the hardest one to position and brand. You can't really compete by price, since there are lower-priced alternatives, and you can't really compete by quality, as there are higher-quality alternatives. It's much easier to work with either of the others, but then again the middle segment also tends to be fairly big, so you may well be leaving money on the table.

TGPs started the same way. A few people started them and made it big and then thousands of copy cats came along and just flooded the Net with blogs that do nothing but shuttle traffic back and forth like a bunch of circle jerks. Now we've got blogs and some people understand the purpose and will be successful, but the rest will just throw up a bunch of automated piles of shit and screw it up for everyone that actually is trying to run a decent blog.

It won't be long and everyone in the porn biz will be complaining about porn blog traffi the same way they bitch about TGP traffic now.

Now that's funny right there, I don't care who you are.

Half of the people that post on GFY would kill to make $1000 a month from their porn sites.

I see them just as another way to present content.

In reality only a small percentage of the surfers is interested in your writing. Since it's adult they want to see the pics/movies. Pulitzer prize writing won't get you huge traffic. It's the selection of content that counts and if you're disciplined enough to offer regular updates.

So who cares if your site is a REAL blog or a blog style promo site ? At the end of the day it's all about traffic and it's quality.

Perhaps a definition of a "real blog" would help.

Show me your blog. Maybe I can help. What keywords do you focus on? How often do you post?
