What Type Of Blogger Are You?

Type Of Bloggers

Type Of Bloggers

Earlier, old people used to make blogs to earn some  money from them, but nowadays, youngsters are really passionate about blogging and they love to write articles about their interest.

If it comes to blogging, there are thousand type of bloggers, each and every blogger is different as compared to other one in some or the other way, but I have classified them into 5 types.

Noob Bloggers: Noob Bloggers are the ones who know what blogging is but are new to the game of blogging, they usually want to earn something online or they make blogs for gaining fame among their school/college friends. Most of the time, they don’t know what to write, and tries to rewrite articles written on other blogs of the same niche.

Lazy Bloggers: Lazy Bloggers are the ones who have knowledge about blogging, but are either very busy with other things or are too lazy to update their blogs. For eg. there’s a lazy blogger named “a”, he knows a topic which is searched a lot these days or a hot topic which is in the news, he has the ability to write about that but he will think like “I’ll publish this tomorrow” and when tomorrow comes then he will again think like that. At last, the topic will not be hot anymore and would have been published on hundreds of blogs. Usually these bloggers makes a blog or two, add a few articles and later they just quit and sells out their blogs.

Copy Cat Bloggers: Sometimes the Noob Bloggers and the Lazy Bloggers are tired of being noobs and lazy and they start hating to see their blogs with old content, so they start copying. Rest of the times, there are bloggers who don’t know what to write or how to write so they just prefer copying content from other blogs. So, in scientific terms, Copy Cat Bloggers are a combination of noob and lazy bloggers who follow the process of copying content.

Passionate Bloggers: Passionate Bloggers are the ones who have passion about blogging and/or writing. They just love to write or they just love to share knowledge with others to get some kind of name over the internet. They usually have high goals and they work hard to achieve their targets in time. They might post less in quantity but they try to post high quality articles. Passionate Bloggers love to write whatever comes to their mind. These bloggers later turns into Professional Bloggers. These bloggers usually like to learn more, they try out almost every new thing/technique/strategy which they find over the internet. They also like to compete with others.

Professional Bloggers: What should I say about them? They are like the Whales in the Ocean or maybe like the African Elephants in the forest (not physically, lol). Professional bloggers are the ones who keep writing, writing and writing. They do have a lot of knowledge, but  the thing which makes them special is a marketing mind. They know a lot about business related stuff, so that helps them in growing. Like others, even they struggle a lot in the beginning and even they face a lot of problems everyday, but unlike others, they really don’t care about the problems, the only thing that they care about is the solution.

At last, I would like to apologize if I wrote anything wrong anywhere in this post.

Here’s a small tip for bloggers:

Just don’t lose hope, keep working hard and keep fighting, you will surely be added in one or the other top blogger’s list. big grin

If you ask me the question, What type of blogger are you? I would say, “Lazy Blogger” was my past, “Passionate Blogger” is my present, (I am not sure if you guys think the same or not) and “Professional Blogger” is going to be my future (not sure though).

What kind of blogger are you? What do you think?

Starting Your Own Online Business

I have already written a lot of posts on blogging, which includes various topics, like: starting your first blog, making money from blogs etc. But this time, I am going to help you in starting your own online business.

First off you want to figure out what interests you and what your hobbies are that you actually know a great deal about or would like to know a great deal about.

Once you narrow down a list of what you want to start your business on, research the niches or hobbies you have listed. Whichever one you know the best and has the highest amount of traffic or visitors is probably the best choice.

One of the easiest ways to start your own business online is to start your own eBay store. You can use things in your house you already have that you want to sell to make extra money.

eBay has a learning center available to help sellers, which would you be as the owner of the store. The fees are very small and worth your time if you have a variety of things to sell.

You can also build your own website, hold on a second this isn’t as terrifying as it sounds. Many website hosting companies such as Godaddy offer the tools to do so.

They even offer website designers and programmers at your disposal should be confused or get stuck, it’s a great complimentary service.

Having your own website is not that scary even if you are not tech savvy as I mentioned before.

You can also have your own blog which would technically be your own business and that I already covered for you earlier.

If you have lost your job recently however a blog is nice but perhaps an eBay store would be a quicker choice to make money right away.

You can also sell used or new items on Amazon and they sell very quickly because Amazon receives a massive amount of visitors each and every day.

There is also a very neat website called SiteBuildIt, keep in mind there is a startup cost with it but it gives you the entire step by step process and lays it out easily for you.

It even shows you how to get traffic to your website and monetize it correctly it’s a great service if you have extra money and you’re looking to get going even quicker.

Also the advantage to owning an online business is simple there is no overhead costs or employees or office space to rent, which is much less risky for you.

To get your website going with traffic you can connect a blog to it and write articles on the blog and also submit articles to article submitter websites and use forum signatures with your website link in it.

Take advantage of every free traffic resource there is and do a quality job, because the better job you do making your website or product quality the more visitors will come and buy it.

When you start your own business online you are your own boss. This is the best feeling in the world and once you get used to it I’m sure you will work even harder each day to make sure it stays that way!

You want to pay your bills and get out of the mess you’re in I’m sure. Well, being an online business owner can help you to do all of these things and live a life of financial and spiritual freedom.

You need to make sure that you have a solid website with a good product in place in the particular topic or niche you picked. The free traffic generation methods I outlined are great but I also left out an important one.

A joint venture, which is basically an agreement between you and someone else to promote each other’s websites, is a very rewarding thing. You can both make money from a joint venture.

A joint venture can simple be exchanging website links, or exchanging website banners. However, one of the most powerful forms of joint venture partnership can be promoting each other’s websites with your subscriber list.

You can find joint ventures on forums such as the warrior forum. This is probably the most popular place to get joint ventures on the internet from my experience.

So, to recap you need either a website, blog, or eBay store. You are selling things you have a lot of, or in a niche that you are passionate about or interested in. In order, to get traffic there are many free techniques that you can use as well.
