It’s Mostly About The Benjamins

It’s Mostly About The Benjamins

One thing I have noticed about blogging so far is that it is easier to drive traffic to your blog than to your website. I have been blogging for several days and have already captured an audience (however small…and I thank you) whilst for the past month I have been developing my website the gains have been much harder to come by and the traffic is much less predictable, consistent and targeted. Yes the gains and hits are there, but they have come through much effort and some expense (albeit the expense has been relatively minor).Now blogging on the other hand seems to have a greater reward to effort quotient. In a relatively short time you can link up with people, other blogs, etc. This in turn creates much needed traffic, linkage and relevancy to your blog which in turn makes it monetarily relevant. Now I understand blogging is many things to many people…a place to write, connect with other people, share your thoughts and yes it is a place for commerce as well. I don’t think a blog has to be exclusively commercial or non-commercial to be relevant. Where I think this blog is heading…and might be interesting as that it is mostly about the quest for commercial viability but it is written in a very personal way. It has a little bit of soul. I’ve gone around and I have seen many blogs that I have enjoyed very much but they either seem to be very commercial or very personal. Maybe this will fill a niche.
