Secrets of Successful Blogging When most people first start producing a blog, they always check the statistics page daily to see how many readers they have. Although it can take some time to build up a pool of loyal, regular subscribers and occasional readers, if you consistently provide high-quality content, maintain a predictable publishing schedule, and are pro-active about marketing your blog, you can expect to rapidly increase your readership.
When that happens, what began as a hobby can quickly demand much of your time and energy. From developing fresh content to managing your blog to interacting with your readers, you can easily find yourself spending several hours per week on your blog. It’s not uncommon for bloggers to become frustrated and eventually reduce the amount of new content they produce or even stop writing altogether. Still, even if you don’t write another single blog posts, unless you actually go in and delete your blog, it will continue to have a life of its own online as people conducting online searches discover your postings and read them for years to come. If you have taken steps to monetize your blog that means that you can have a residual income indefinitely.
