How to make a profitable blog by being yourself
Be yourself and profit.
How to be yourself online? This is one question that I mull over in my head over and over again. How do these professional bloggers do it? Where do they get their inspiration, energy and most of all the time to post almost daily about their “How I got rich Blogging” articles or posts.
Professional Internet Marketing bloggers make it seem really easy. They can whip out a good post faster than a bullet coming out of a gun barrel. I scratch my head in amazement. I read their posts all the time and many are just ordinary folks working from home and profiting big time just by doing what they love to do.
I know what might be going through that puzzling brain of yours…”How can I do that”? I too have some big issues twirling around inside my head as to what makes a good blogger and a bad one.
Is it education? Naw…many sound like they had a hard time completing High School. Maybe just downright smartness. Another big no. They aren’t smarter than most other online marketer’s.
Could it be luck? Oh yea they definitely have luck. But they brought it on themselves by being themselves. Being yourself online is the real key to online success whether it is a website, blog or any opportunity you are pursuing.
I now know it will take time for my own blog to bring in the same kind of success other professionals bloggers have. I follow bloggers such as Darren Rowse, Rich Schefren and other new and upcoming bloggers.
The one constant theme besides the great content is their ability to blog without copying others. I only hope someday I can do the same.
Copying and posting re-hashed versions of the same article, posts or even PLR using article spinners only waters down the whole online marketing world.

Being yourself + perseverance + persistence + learning + hard work = success in blogging.
Hey Walter I can see your math is much better than mine. Lets see 4 plus signs equal success. If my high school match teacher see this post he will jump higher than Lebron James.

You do have good writing skills…and your common sense is better than most online folks. Life experiences take time but you seem to have way more than most.

Yes good writing skills is pretty much necessary but many people will not want to improve on what needs to be improved and therefore will fail at making money
Anyone can make money with niche blogs, regardless of experience or skill. … Not every blog ends up being a profitable endeavor and with good reason. …but you must have to spread a positive message throughout your market and establish with yourself. Thats a good idea.
Being confident in who you are and just being yourself makes for the best interesting blogs to read I have found. It’s not always about making money with your blog, it should be a natural by-product of it. I find the ones I support by buying their product is not because of the product first, but because of the interest level their blog creates in wanting to come back to it time and again.

I see 2 separate paths here when talking about making money with your blog. One way you try to engage people with your wit and writing style so that they want to come back often and read more, kind of like they feel you are a friend they trust. While they are there they check out a product or service just because you recommend it. The other also set up on a blog platform, but just the facts about a product are presented. Let the product sell itself, you actually hope they click on your affiliate link instead of hanging around on your site. I have seen both ways work. I guess it depends on the writers personality, or maybe the lack of it.

Want to guess which way I lean?
I don’t know if you have to have great writing skills, but you always have to give some kind of value to your readers, you want them to come back and share your posts.
I don’t know, man. I’m not really an interesting enough person to just be myself online. Nobody pays to read about a boring life! Great tips for an interesting person though.
People tend to get writers block because they think too much about what to write. So treat your blog like you’d talk to a friend, you never get ‘speakers block’ when chatting to an aquaotance. Let it flow and you’ll be amazed at how easy it becomes when you stop worrying…
