This article really struck a cord with me. I think it is true, you can’t make money if you aren’t passionate about what you write about. It really comes through in the writing. If you are passionate about writing, you will be able to keep it up and keep writing and therefore have a more successful blog.

Excellent points here, Brandon. About criticism, it’s good to get some. You’ll get to know what to improve and it can generate some buzz about your blog.

Good thoughts there – I agree that the content has to be worth linking in to.

Yep, that’s how it goes – success is merely the byproduct of doing well whatever we are passionate about.

I also tend to like to start clients out with a more on page approach, as in the long run, this is going to pay off much more. The off page stuff is certainly important too, but without having a strong backbone it isn’t usually permanent.

However, I find that it is something a lot of people simply don’t have time for and don’t want to pay someone to do. I try to make it easy, suggesting simply one post every few weeks, or even planning to spend one hour a week to start with creating a blog post, but all too often they don’t follow through…

I made the mistake of trying to start a blog with the primary goal of making money. I put in a lot of time towards it, but did not see very good results. I realized that my heart wasn’t in it and I needed to focus on writing about things that I enjoyed, as opposed to writing about things that I thought would make me money. Once I came that that realization, I changed the focus of my blog and put together articles that shared my life experiences with the world and sure enough the money started to roll in!

Brandon,

Those are some great tips. I will definitely take your advice. I have several blog projects I am considering. Once I have the budget for it I will try some of them.
