So You Want To Be A Blogger – Lesson 26

For those of you that are interested in becoming Bloggers, welcome back! For those of you that want to be Internet marketeers ………. good luck. I’m not really an “AdSense Pirate” type of guy. Meaning I like to Blog, instead of promoting any new affiliate offer that comes my way.

Once you reach this level and you make a commitment to become a Blogger. The path is a treacherous one indeed. At this point in time you can forget all the “16-year-old earns $217,043.00 in six days” e-mails and “Blogging To The Bank” Blogging courses. You’re a little beyond that now. Anything that you are interested in as a Blogger will more than likely have to come from a Blogger. What I like to label as the advanced techniques.

The first advanced technique that you will have to confront is the outsourced content technique. I’m of the thought that if you use outsourced content, use it on the weekends. Because if you start using “Guest Posts” all the time, so that you can free up your time to develop your products, your readers will go elsewhere. Then you have no market. You have to stay in touch with your readers. You have to post at least once a day. That takes a lot of work and all of the Bloggers that I know of have tried to escape the jail of “Blogging Editor/Writer”, most with limited success.

I’ve seen Blogging Villages that are pretty successful and I regularly follow one. These are Blogs that are set-up to host a different Blogger everyday of the week on a set schedule. These Bloggers usually have Blogs of their own and join the Village to write once a week.

The irony of course is that Blogging allows a great deal of freedom, if ………. you don’t intend on earning a living with it. If you do than you have to follow some common sense techniques.
