Creating content is not an easy task and the best bloggers out there will tell you that consistency is the key. Not many bloggers can maintain this venture for an extended period of time because they are lacking one or most of the characteristics above.

The best bloggers are those that can get through the first three years and still manage to provide their followers with useful information and content.

What is blogging used for?

There are many uses that we can list here but the primary focus of a blog is to share information.

There are three common types of blogs on the web:

• Informative
• Service-related
• Entertainment

Informative Blog

Most blog content will be of an informative nature and these are the blogs that are very niche specific in order to attract the right visitors. Typical visitors to this blog will have a specific problem and are looking for answers.

Bloggers of this blog type also have a good opportunity to market their products or services to a specific niche and are therefore very monetizable.

Service-Related Blog

A service-related blog is specifically set up for the purpose of monetization right from the start. A service blog can range from product sales pages, e-commerce stores, software as a service (SAAS), and other online services.

There are a lot of businesses today that opt for online services as the first choice because of the expertise available online and the no investment required for infrastructure.

Entertainment Blog

Who doesn't like entertainment? We all know how much productive time is wasted online trying to entertain ourselves. What used to be luxury years gone past is now permanently at our fingertips.

This niche although specialized in some way can also be very profitable if monetized correctly.

Can blogging be fun?

Have you ever started something new and exciting that put you into a very positive mindset? Yes, we all know that positive feeling when you can't wait to do something and all other things surrounding you fades away as insignificant.

With the right attitude and the right motive, you can let blogging be the activity that lets you stand out from the crowd. Blogging gives you the opportunity to try things you would've never thought of doing before.

There is nothing more rewarding than knowing that you have not only found something positive for yourself but are also making a positive impact on somebody else's life.

If blogging is for you then you will experience constant joy and be a more productive person than ever before.

How is Blogging different from a normal day job? 

Blogging is different and being a blogger can be a very satisfying self-employment strategy if you are doing it in the right frame of mind. Doing it for the right reasons is the key to enjoying what you are doing.

Don't worry about toxic people with negative thoughts as the web makes it very easy to shut out this part of your audience. It would not have been that easy in a normal day job to do that.

If the negativity is closer to you don't be put off but rather let it motivate you to succeed. Negative people don't like being proven wrong.

Most people start blogging in the hope of building it into a profitable business venture that will free them from a normal 9 to 5 job. That is the perfect goal to strive for and you will find no better motivator than that.

Once you are getting into blogging you will realize the differences between blogging for an income and a normal day job have their own differences.

As a Blogger

• You are working much longer hours
• Hustling for every penny
• Set your own goals
• Flexible working hours
• Freedom to choose who you work with
• Can work from anywhere
• Only take instructions from yourself
• Continuous daily learning takes place

As a normal day job

• Fixed hours, forced overtime
• No matter work input your pay will arrive
• You must strive for other people's goals
• Forced to work with people you might not like
• Same position, stuck in the same place every day
• Must follow instructions no matter how unreasonable
• Repetitive work with very little opportunity or need for self-development

The biggest advantage of blogging is that whatever you do is for yourself and your audience.

What can I do with a blog?

You can show all your pictures off to other people who like to look at them and even want to buy them from you. Fun photos can become your niche and very soon people will know where to find them.

Or maybe you are a carpenter and enjoy woodworking. There are many do-it-yourself enthusiasts on the web that will always be looking for ideas on how to create beautiful things from wood. It can be a very profitable field to be in and there are many options available for making an income.

Are you a stay-at-home mum that can offer other mothers advice on how to cook or run a business at the same time? There are many communities generated on the web where similar-minded people get together and share ideas.
