I always believe “ Working for your passion does get you results , but working with passion will get you even bigger”. Blogging was really not a passion of mine in any sense at all. A friend of mine Mr.Pradeep Kumar(Hellbound Bloggers) was a big success in the blogging arena and that made me to start a blog as well. Thus, it is very certain that blogging was not my passion but when I really worked with passion on blogging i started to get the results which any blogger will dream of.
I have seen many of my fellow bloggers taking a step back on finding no success here, that is not the way to go about things being a blogger.Blogging needs a lot of patience and only who have that can succeed over here.Let move on, Blogging has teached me lots but I have learnt only a cup of water from the ocean. In this article I would like to share what I learnt from blogging
Not everyone likes what you like
Every person is different in the world, starting from faces to their characters. I will say that god has done it for a reason , don’t you ? Else just imagine a situation where you had all of them just loving cricket ! were would have the lovely game of football or baseball come from ? If every one liked to be engineers then we wouldn’t have had doctors. Same is with the likes and dislikes , you might have written a post worth a read but it is not that it must be read. The key is that you should not be dissapointed on it rather take in the right sense and move on. If you are too particular on writing what people like, get the view of your visitors and write something which is of their interest.
Blogging is like a bottle of beer
How many of you here drink ? don’t take this in a wrong sense, if you do you will surely understand what I mean over here. Many of us hate drinking but only till you havent drunk, once you get a feelof it you become addictive. For me blogging has been like that, initially I used to hesitate but I have become so addicitve that without blogging days don’t go by. I feel it as drug that need to be taken every day.
You can build relations worldwide
I would say this one of the best that can happen with blogging. A network is one thing and building relations in that is another. Blogging helps you do both build a network and also to strenthen them with good relations. As blogging is a uniform code world wide which makes blogging a very big network with the whole world inside it.
Knowledge
As we all know that knowledge is wealth , blogging is a ore for knowledge. By saying it as an “ore” i mean it still needs to be extracted to be really useful. A city in forest and a blogger without knowledge are very difficult to find. As bloggers, all have knowledge of the world and its happenings. I prefer to read all the blogs, not only does it improve my language( I guess we were thought in schools to read as much as we can to improve our knowledge) but also I get to learn something new in my life. Aint this a great thing ? I will say it is.
Make Money
It was only around 6 months after starting a blog that I came to know we can generate a good loads of money from a blog. I found out good ways to earn and that too by reading on other blogs but implementation was certainly mine. As I went on I also came to know the ill effects of generating too much income from a blog.
That is the reason while I write I always say others not to blog just for money.
There are certain good ways to
earn money from blog you can certainly do those but always keep in mind that you don’t over do it.

Networking is a must thing when you are a blogger. Without it you won't find visitors and you can't survive in this blogging world. This is a great post Sandeep!

Thanks aswani. As i said blogging is vast and learning it all is vey difficult, but through the course we can cover most of it.

Good post Sandeep ! Enjoyed reading it. You are very true.. Networking is so important that without that it is very hard to become successful as a blogger. Being involved in others' blogs - reading and commenting(giving suggestions and tips) - is a great way to become popular as a blogger which ultimately brings in some followers and traffic to our own blog(s). Have subscribed to your feed, looking forward to more good posts from you.

Its the perfect place to believe in yourself :) coz , when you blog about something people started liking your post and keep rolling comments ,likes it means people are interest in your thinking and ideas, so is a step for a startup too. So if people love your blogging stuff and ideas and they ll love your startups too. This is i analyzed and one more thing. Blogging give you world wide friends, if you do jobs :P we don't get these reputation at all .

Awesome post Aswani! Today networking is becoming very crucial for us blogger. Building relationship with others people help grow people trust over us. I always take a bit of my time to reply to comment, help other to solve their problems, increase follower number and so on. Of course, I know my blog may not like to everyone, but I take this in a positive way, and a way to do always better.
