Blog With Passion

Blog With Passion

Aug 28, 2009  By Manish


Some bloggers think they can choose a topic and start writing about it and that will gain them an audience.  We know from experience that this strategy is unlikely to succeed, because those types of blogs lack passion.  Our advice to both established bloggers and wannabes alike is to let the topic choose you, not the other way around. 
You would think that we know ourselves best about what we are passionate about, but that’s not always the case.  A useful technique to discover what you are really passionate about is to ask your family and friends what they think you should blog about.  While this may produce several different answers, it will definitely provide insight that will be useful for you to choose the right topic to blog about.
Look at someone like Donald Trump, you may think he is passionate about money?  Although money is probably a top priority for Mr. Trump, I doubt it’s his core passion.  Instead, I think he’s passionate about being part of successful ventures that involve high profile people.  By surrounding himself with celebrities and other influential people, Trump himself has become a celebrity.  He clearly likes to be in the public eye and has cultivated his image as a world-class businessman (whether he is making money or not).  Trump builds overpriced condos that he sells to wealthy folks who admire him and has earned a reputation of success.  If Donald Trump were a blogger, he would be blogging about making genuine relationships with wealthy people and how to cultivate them for a sale.
Another fine example of a passionate individual is John Chow, who is a truly successful blogger.  For those of you out there who think John used secretive evil techniques to get where he is, you would only be partly right.  Mr. Chow, from Vancouver, Canada is personally my favourite blogger.  Even after a bitch slapping from Google, John continues to dominate the blog world with his record breaking traffic and profits.  John, like me is committed to blogging in a very big way.  His commitment to provide his readers quality and relevant information on how to make money online has earned him a solid place on the Internet.  While I enjoy the vast amounts of information available on John’s blog, I do recognize that he provides only part of the equation to making money online.  John’s blog is a must read for the intermediate to advanced blogger.  The techniques he talks about will only be useful if you have already found your blogger self.
Conquering the technical side of having your own blog can also be a challenge.  Fortunately there are many options available today that allow even the most technically challenged individuals to have their own blog.  Websites such as blogger.com, wordpress.org and several others provide a free blogging platform and hosting to anyone who wants to have their own blog.  If you desire a more distinctive approach to blogging, then you will need some essentials that include a domain name, hosting account, graphics library, etc.  At BloggerBible, we explore everything you need from beginning to end, browse our categories and read the articles that best suit where you are at.  If we’ve missed a step, let us know.  If our information needs correcting, you can let us know about that too, it’s all very much appreciated when our readers provide us feedback.
