It adds up

Targeting long tail keywords by writing articles can add up over time and get your blog decent views.

You know – people read everything, if they can stumble on it, but the hardest part is getting your blog posts in front of them.

There’s so much noise competing for attention.

Every blog post screams ‘read me’.

People read everything, but they don’t have enough attention to spare to read through everything.

Besides people don’t have to read your blog, the fact that you made it doesn’t translate into automatic views. View is when somebody visits your blog, but it doesn’t mean the person visiting the blog is actually reading it.

Not ‘how to’

When starting a blog, you really don’t have to write ‘how to’ tips or have a niche.

Your life is your niche.

There’s so much pressure to monetize one’s blog, that if you don’t do it – you’re considered a failed blogger.

Due to scarcity of attention, most bloggers won’t get a cut from their ‘work’ even if they tried hard.

That’s how the blogging world works, blogging results are uneven among blogs, top blogs get all the views while other folks get peanuts.

It’s the reality, not something we can do about.

Today companies not only want you to create content for free, but also pay to get seen, which is basically bullshit.
