Three things every blogger must have
With ranks being so volatile lately, I’ve seen a lot of blogs throw in the towel because they couldn’t make the kind of money that they once did. Working on the internet is not for everyone. It is very uncertain. Unfortunately, I really don’t have a choice, I have to work from home due to my health. Here are a few things I try to always have:
1. Perseverance. As the Simpsons would say, sticktoitvness. Sure, there are some over night successes. However, there are also over night failures. If you want to make money blogging, you just have to keep blogging when the money isn’t coming in, or when the future isn’t sure.
2. Wow, my second reason totally just escaped me. It was a really good one too, it must be the fibro fog.
3. The ability to adapt. The internet is constantly changing, it takes a lot of work to read up on the latest. I easily spend three times the time reading about blogging than I do actually blogging.
4. Time & money. Yes, I have a list of four things when the title only has three. However, I just thought of this & blogging is all about being able to adapt after all. Blogging takes a lot of time. It doesn’t take a lot of money to get started. However, if you want to blog for a living, you need to have backup funds for those months when things are rocky.
