There
are many people who want to be bloggers not because they have passion for it
but because they heard that blogging pays high. They finally start, post some
things and when they don’t any pay from it, they start pulling out. The fire
they started with is not there anymore. they don’t know that for you to earn
from blogging, you have to abide by some rules. But many are failing to do so.
Here are some reasons why blogger fail.
1. Lack
of passion
Many bloggers today don’t
really have passion for blogging. They were told that bloggers earn six
figures. Their belief is to register a blog, post 10-20 post and start earning
money. It doesn’t work that way. Google or any other advertising agency don’t
give free money. You have to work for it. The blogger you see who are earning a
lot didn’t just follow trend. They started blogging because they had a passion
for it. Take Okon Joseph for example. Okon, does not only have a good blog, but
he also has good content and he is consistent. But if you check his blog, you won’t
see any advert there. This should tell you that it takes more than a good Blog
layout, good posts, consistency and perseverance to earn from blogging.
2. Too
much plagiarism
Plagiarism is simply known as
“Copy & Paste”. Google don’t index post/blogs that are based on plagiarised
contents. If you think that you are trying to make your post much on your blog
using plagiarism, then you are wasting your time. But there is another way to
do copy & paste posting. When you copy, you paraphrase and give credit before
posting. But it is so sad to see that many young and upcoming blogger are
copying with paraphrasing or giving credit.
Wrong
network
When I say network, I mean
network of friends. Do When I say network, I mean network of friends. Do your
friends contribute to you or they don’t have relevance in your blog life. These
are the kind of questions you should be asking. If you are tech blogger, you
should make friends with other tech bloggers like Mathias Ahmodu of Zealmat and Precious Agbotan of prexblog. If your niche is
entertainment, then your kind of friends should be Dj james of Afrigroove, Prince Rubini of Mallam
Media and so
on. SEO content blogger should me friend with Okon Joseph of okonjoseph. Your network can also bring
you traffic from doing guest & sponsored posts.
4. Refusal
to learn
I noticed that many young
bloggers fail to learn from their previous mistake. I notice that when you are
trying to correct them, they will be acting up like they already know
everything about blogging. In the end, they always fall victims to scams They fail
to ask the right question. They are always asking questions like:
How much can I make? How do I
start earning? Young blogger should not ask the above-mentioned kind of question.
Here are the kind of questions Okon Joseph they should ask.
Are my contents good enough?
Am i getting it right?
Where am I getting it wrong?
Why don’t have the number of
page views that other are getting?
So
it is up to you to decide which of this
