Fasten your seat-belts, kiddies, coz uncle Jason is going to take you on a ride to Truth Town: Population – You and Me! Here’s the truth about blogging!<\/strong><\/p>\n Blogging is seen by many as keeping an online journal that everyone can read. In a nutshell, that’s basically what it is. However, it goes a bit deeper than that.<\/p>\n If you know me, you know I’m into blogging although, it wasn’t always because I liked it. Truth is, up until recently, I always hated blogging!<\/p>\n “What’s the point?” I thought.<\/p>\n I joined a blogging platform that many of you may be familiar with called Empower Network<\/a>\u00a0back in June of 2012. It was the first time I started to look at blogging seriously.<\/p>\n But, why?<\/strong><\/p>\n Here’s what BLOGGING is<\/span>: Blogging is a method of content creation with the purpose of reaching an audience with a need or with shared interests that you can deliver or entertain.<\/p>\n So if someone is looking up how to clean a hairball from the family couch for example, what is that person going to do? They’re getting on Google and looking up, “HOW TO CLEAN A HAIRBALL FROM A COUCH”.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Now, there’s literally millions of websites that may show up in that person’s search results, and more than half of them are articles from BLOGS.<\/p>\n A blog is typically informal, usually from a regular guy or gal who knows what they’re talking about and because of that, they become more trust worthy. For instance, I know I can trust one blogger’s opinion on how to clean a hairball from a couch than from a company website like “HAIRBALL-BE-GONE” (note: not a real company)<\/em> who says their product is the ONLY way to completely remove a hairball.<\/p>\n See what I mean? Bloggers have way more credibility on the internet, which is why so many people get into blogging, because the audience they can attract is vast!<\/p>\n To cut the fat and just answer the question: YES.<\/p>\n You most certainly can make money blogging! The misconception a lot of people make is they think money just rolls in and can immediately replace their income. They know that many people make a living by blogging, so they think it’s easy. Those who think that obviously don’t understand how the system works, so let me clear it up for you:<\/p>\n Here’s my TOP 5 Tips For Understanding How Blogging Works:<\/b><\/p>\n You can \u00a0write about anything you’d like, but remember that you’re writing FOR someone, not just for yourself. Whatever it is you blog about, it has to solve a problem for someone, so that needs to stand out in the TITLE of your article most of all. Also, don’t underestimate how effective tags or keywords are. Tags are what search engines use to classify your content.<\/p>\n Blogging doesn’t come with overnight success but the end results are pretty sweet if you do it right! You may think blogging is boring or not interesting but look at it this way:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n If you can make a full time income from home, waking up whenever you like and going out anywhere you like… and the only thing you gotta do is write one article per day… wouldn’t that be a really GOOD trade off?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Sounds good to me!<\/p>\n If you want to give this thing a try, I have two options for you:<\/p>\n Like my article? Please\u00a0like\u00a0and\u00a0share\u00a0my blog!<\/strong><\/p>\nWhat IS Blogging & Why Do So Many People Do It?<\/h2>\n
