Here I am debunking some common myths about blogging:
Passive Income: A lot of people will tell you that blogging is a passive income, however, it is not. At least for a couple of years, blogging is not a passive income. If you want to become a successful blogger, you will have to work 3-4 hours every day for a couple of years. You will have to spend time writing blog post, researching keywords, doing SEO, promoting content etc.
Publishing regularly: A lot of people thing that you need to publish daily or at least weekly. Well, this is just a myth. In the beginning you will have to publish substantial amount of content, however, once you have content and once your content are ranked on search engine you don’t have to publish regularly.
You Can Make a Lot of Money Through Ads: Advertising is a way to generate revenue on your blog, but running ads alone will not generate a lot of money. You will have to sell products and services.
