Comments on: Bad blogging expectations! http://www.rebelliousarabgirl.net/2008/01/16/bad-blogging-expectations/ Open your arms to change, but don't let go of your values Wed, 01 Feb 2012 22:30:49 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Moolahking http://www.rebelliousarabgirl.net/2008/01/16/bad-blogging-expectations/comment-page-1/#comment-28816 Moolahking Fri, 18 Jan 2008 20:49:59 +0000 http://www.rebelliousarabgirl.net/?p=1308#comment-28816 Making Money sucks..!! What i want to mentioned here is, nowadays most of the new bloggers used blogging as a path to make money online. And it's truly far away from the original purposed of blogging. I truly believe that blogging supposed to be about sharing thoughts with others. It's about making connections. It's about making friends in blogosphere. Want to sell something, do it in a real world. Do some business. That's more worth it.. Hey, it's cool to wear a shirt saying "Rebellious Arab Girl..!!" Good way to promote your site.. Seriously, i preferred reading personal blogs rather than making money blogs. The contents are all same and lame.. Sorry for the harsh word. I'm just being honest. Nice knowing you, girl.. :) Making Money sucks..!!

The tactics used are so silly sometimes - buy my ebook so I can teach you how to make money by re-selling the same book! I blog because it's fun and because it's a good way to keep in touch with my sisters. I put my first tiny little ads up today, but I like the simplicity of our blog. When I make my first dollar, I'll do a little dance. But at this point, it's going to be a long time until that happens. It’s so easy to get caught up in the ‘make money online’ whirlwind.

A four figure income is easy money, it's only $1,000 at it's minimum, which is only $33 per day on average, any blogger can make that kind of money. But what Mona was talking about in her post isn't small amounts like this, she's talking about the seven figure incomes of the very few big name bloggers.

I mentioned that there are exceptions and there are some well off bloggers who make a living out of this. But they are a handful. Mr.Anonymous - first off, you are accusing me as a liar. I don't lie or post anything on my blog that is a lie. So you have no right to say "B.S its thousands of dollars a day." If it was, I would be posting 10 - 20 articles a day just to maintain that income and be classified as a full time blogger earning 4 figure income a day from it. rara - that's cool. I will check out your blog and add it to my blog roll.. :) Carl – I know.. I mentioned that there are exceptions and there are some well off bloggers who make a living out of this.

You're right though about the number of bloggers who setup 'make money' blogs, my own blog has until recently had this as it's byeline, but I did this because it attracts traffic, you'd be amazed the number of people who go looking for money making sites and the sad reality is that if they use a search engine or social bookmarking service the sites they find will be the sites that are designed to get their attention. Unfortunately it leads to a lot of copycat bloggers. As for sites like yours, I came across your site completely by accident and it was only your name 'Rebellious Arab Girl' that got my attention, in fact if I'd seen your entries without the moniker I probably would have kept going because a third person's love life usually doesn't interest me very much, on the other hand the trials and tribulations of an Arab girl living in the west certainly does, but only because I actually believe the world is slowly becoming a better and more civilised place so your story affirms my belief (yeah I know, you're probably wondering how, but the fact that you are doing what you are is all the evidence I need). Also, I really like your site design.
