Why should you blog ?

All right, so many of us must have been hearing everybody setting up their blogs these days, it has become kind of a trend. Well, in fact, yes it is fitting into the scene. Blogs are a great way to express your opinions, now think that if there is a popular blog then of course there'll be many people reading it, think what standard they can set to products by just reviewing them. Blogs are also a great way to get people engaged, you know people with alike minds have a common thinking. But now, these days people just set up blogs to get money from it, that's right they want to monetize as soon as possible, without realising that they are set off track of providing quality content. Most people create blogs to get monetized, but that doesn't mean that you do the same too. In my opinion, you should create a blog to give yourself a platform and provide quality content to the people and then you'll be engaging fans automatically. A spark can ignite into a flame similar is with good quality blogs. Sites like TechCrunch, Cnet etc have strived to provide quality content instead of focusing on monetizing. Blogs can also be a great source of marketing, say you have many people engaged in a site and poof, you release a new product, instead of starting from nowhere you'll at least have a bunch of people buying the product and reviewing it. There are many ways in which you can benefit the people as well as get benefitted yourself by Blogging, seems Tit for Tat, right ? Let me start off by getting to the topic that all of you must be eagerly waiting for, making money with quality content. So, these days most of the blogs monetize by usually having ads by Google adSense on their site and mind it the Google adSense earnings are quite good if you have the fan base. You can also start affiliate marketing using your blog, sites like click bank pay you a commission for each product sold via your blog. So it is clear that you can get money by creating a blog, which is the most obvious reason people get really hyped up for creating one. Another thing is that you get the spotlight, as you provide quality content, people will begin to view and discuss about your blog. Come on, we all must have one time or the other be saying that what's the Cnet rating of the product, how does it scale up on verge etc. So you're certain to become the centre of attraction by creating a good blog. You also might get good opportunities from companies to do their job on a blog or you can also become an article writer, just show the people your blog when they want to see your sample work. Well, basically that's what all a blog will make you capable of doing. It seems great, but don't expect to get big soon, it takes time and I literally mean it. Creating a blog can also seem to be a very trendy thing, look at all the famous people, most of them have their blogs, hardly some people without blogs, so you seem to be catching up on the trends here by creating a blog. All this sounds cool but don't think all this is a very easy to accomplish task because in fact it isn't. But, don't worry, this book will help you out in creating a successful blog of your own, you need to have a passion for that, of course. Like they say, there's nothing possible without will power. You also need to be patient because all this does not happen at once, it takes time.
