I have been accosted many a times online and offline for a share in the booty. Many a times it starts with a request to chat on my gmail. Many start without a hello, they come directly to the point. Its usually, “Hey! Do you want a writer?” Initially, I was flattered. Some of my sites have really grown.

Online or offline, every one wants to write for me. They want easy money. Every time, the story “usually’ is same. Let me tell you.

Accoster:” Do you make money on your websites?”
Me: “little.”

Accoster: “How?”
Me: Some advertising, some paid articles.”

Accoster: ” How many people work for you?”
Me: “Enough. Sufficient to handle the job.”

Accoster: “I have a proposal for you.”
Me: “No thanks, I am married.”

Accoster: “Lol, I meant business.”
Me: “Relieved. shoot!”

Accoster: “You download writing work for me and give me a cut.”
Me: “You are asking for a job, Where is the business part?”

Accoster: ‘ I mean, you concentrate on getting the work and I will finish it. We can share the revenue.”
Me: “umm… sorry, I can handle all the work and keep all the money.”

Accoster: Oh! commeon, I can write better than whats on your sites.
Me: “Wonderful, why don’t you write for yourself?”

Accoster: “I did, but I was not successful. You see I am not good at marketing myself.”
Me: “How true!”

Accoster: “LoL, how do you make all that money?’
Me: “A lot of hard work.”

Accoster: ” I mean, who gives you money to write?”
Me: “Internet is full of opportunities, for example you can read this ‘ Making Money on Indian blogs.”

Accoster: ” I have tried those, I still don’t make money.”
Me:” I understand.”

Accoster: “Can you help me with making money on blogs.”
Me: “Yes! I have a charge for that.”

Accoster: “How much will you charge?’
Me: “Rs xxxxx/-. It includes the website and the consultancy. The content and hard work is yours”

Accoster: “That is too much.”
Me: “I understand.”

Accoster: “Can we have a partnership?”
Me:“I am listening.”

Accoster: “We can work together, we can start a joint blog.”
Me: ” No thanks, I am loaded.”

Accoster: ” If I pay you what you are asking, how fast I will make money.”
Me: “If you do everything as I say, probably 3 years.”

Accoster: ” How much time it took for you?”
Me: “3 years.”

Accoster: “That is too much, i don’t think I have the patience.”
Me: “I understand.”

Accoster: ” Ok, I will be back with you later, I have a meeting to attend.”
Me: “Have a fantastic day!”

Can connect to the situation? You have a blogspot account, you don’t make money on blogs and do not have enough traffic. Either the blog is very young or you have not put enough hard work on content and have not promoted it.

Blogging money is easy

Welcome to the biggest myth on the internet. A blog or website is no magic that you start one, write something and wait for people to come and read and money to flow. Like all businesses, you need to nurture and grow the blog, just like you do it to a offline business. Its downright frustrating and unrewarding.

No doubt, some bloggers have made very big, but, it is usually few dollars a day, which becomes decent at the end of the month or may be few months.

I am sure, a determined blogger is not yet discouraged. Next article will be on the possible ways you can make a good blog which has traffic and potential to make money.
