Everyone will advice you to start a blog, put AdSense or any other monetization program and start making money. This sounds so easy. Though, in this post, Im going to be little Harsh on you and going to talk about few things that I have learned the hard way or things that I have learned after following pro in my field.Blogging LessonWhen I was in college, making money online was a myth for me, and when people talk about they earn online, I see it as another online scam or find it hard to believe it. In Feb 2009, when I received my first $10 on my PayPal account for a quick Webmaster fix, I realized online money is not a scam, and people like me and you can earn from online work.Here in this post, Im not going to talk about how you can make online, but rather this is a post for all bloggers, who either started blogging or already running a blog for some time and waiting for next kick start to go to next level.Quality over QuantityWhen I started blogging, one of my primary goals was to publish 4-5 posts a day. Quality doesnt matter that time and whatever interesting stuff I came across, I curated the same on my blog without any new insight. Yes, I was curating news, and this was one big mistake that I made in initial days of Blogging. Believe it, there is no shortcut to success, and if you are in the race of being a successful blogger, its time to find out mistakes that you have done regarding quality. If you are one of those who are publishing tons of post every day, its time to change the style and jump into the category of quality blogging. While writing a post, try to find whats new you are gi ving to your readers. A simple way to do is find the best post on the Internet about the topic you are writing about, and your goal should be write something better than that. And, this cant be done without research, testing and proof-reading. By the end, if you can turn a single reader into subscriber you have achieved a goal.Subscriber over Search Engine trafficFor Adsense Blogger, search engine traffic is great, but the real win is when you are converting those one time reader into a subscriber. This could only be done, when you are giving something new and offering a quality experience to your readers. This doesnt only limited to quality post but also consider another aspect like site loading time, no. of advertisements and so on. If you consider this blog or any other blog as a quality blog, try to find what is your blog missing regarding quality. What made you subscribe to that blog and in most of the cases its quality of the articles. Stop reading about unlimited WordPress tr icks, but work on basic of a blog and that is placing ideal subscription box and offer popular subscription options. Dont forget to leverage the power of Facebook, which is Google itself in term of traffic.Maintain Email listAgain, it depends upon your Blog niche but having an Email list is always a plus point. From the Branding and from sales perspective. Now, most of you are thinking why do we need Email list when we have Feedburner and other free options, but have anyone told you about the limitations of Feedburner. Email marketing services like Aweber, Mailchimp offers feature like Instant delivery, double opt in, spam control and that too at minimal cost. More over, think about the time when Google might become your biggest enemy, how are you planning to drive traffic then? Social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter, Google+ and Email list will be your biggest asset. One of the biggest mistake which I did here is, despite of reading about Aweber and Mailchimp advantages, I delayed integrating it into my blog.Why your blog need a Mailing listStart Aweber Email marketing for $1READWhy The Google Penguin Update Is Good For SEO?Stick with Positive people Only. Period!When we talk about serious Blogging, its a creative work. I consider Blogging as a Job of journalism and artistic work. For an artist, its important to have positive energy around you and it only comes when you have people with lots of positive energy around you. Follow the entrepreneur, creators, and market leaders. By the end of the day, you will have something new to gain. Get rid of people, who talk negative, see the glass half empty all the time. This will give you more positive approach and seeing people who believe in creating something new, will help you to boost your productivity.How to attract positive energyReading should be a part of your lifeWhen I was 14-year-old, one of the best tip which I got from a wise man is reading should be an integral part of your life and everyone life . It doesnt matter you are 10 or 100, reading is one habit that you should never ignore. Reading habit gives you a new way to see things, you learn a new thing every day, your vocab will improve, you can talk to people about new things and reading something in your niche, will slowly enhance your knowledge and will help you to be an expert with time. Still not convinces, read how reading makes you better.Avoid useless commentsEvery blogger love comments, even a small comment like nice post useful post, is an ego boost for us. But, lets see from SEO and value perspective, a comment like useful post doesnt add any value to your readers and your post. Moreover, one backlink will be going to a Website, which doesnt even deserve it. And since, SEO is all about linking, how can you give a link back to a blog which doesnt even earn it.Moreover, linking to an irrelevant domain is a bad idea. See the image below and most of these links are coming because of commenting. From SEO perspective, it would be better it Google is showing related links to the blog that I often link to. Related links, should show blog which are relevant to your niche, and such comments link might dilute the value of your domain. Accepting feedback from irrelevant domain is not bad, but make sure they earn it. You can check for your domain by typing related:domain.com in Google search.Dont be afraid to linking outThis is most common newbie mistake, as Blogger afraid that adding links to an external domain will let your reader jump out from your domain. Which is true, but at the same time you are letting your reader go without adding value. Either you should be a wiki, where you can link to your domain for all stuff or start linking out to useful and best post from the internet. Though, if you are worried about bounce rate, use Open in new tab for external links. Also, adding a useful link within your post will help you to create a better relation with other bloggers and also people will find you r post more valuable. Dont you believe so?5 Reasons why you should link out to others WebsiteAnd the last but not the least tip, when you read any tips on Blogging, dont just read it but implement it too.
