Blogging as a Full Time Profession?

Youngsters are now choosing Blogging as  Full Time Career. Reasons for this are job satisfaction, boss of your own, good income, own working hours and much more.

Blogging can make you earn lot more than your day job but the fact is that blogging is not easy as it sounds. Many bloggers quit blogging in six months just because they feel that they can’t make money via blogging. Before diving in professional blogging field you should ask yourself that whether you should choose blogging as a full time profession or not. You should ask yourself that can you make money via blogging from which you can arrange bread and butter for yourself and your family.

Blogging is not everyone’s cup of tea, it requires lot of hard work, skills and most importantly the patience. Here are few points which will help you to take your decision that should you start blogging as a full time profession or not.

Your Passion:

If you want to choose blogging as a full time career then you should have passion for blogging. If you don’t passion for blogging then soon you will feel blogging as a boring work. You can’t go long if you are not passionate about blogging. Your passion about blogging will also boost productivity which in return will give you great results from your blog. So, In my opinion you should choose blogging as a full time profession if you are passionate about writing and your blog niche.

Parents and Family Support:

Without your family support, blogging will become a much more difficult task to perform. Blogging is still not considered as a good profession especially in Asian countries like India, Pakistan, Nepal etc. So, to convince your parents for choosing blogging as a full time profession will be tough task for you. To have bright future in blogging you should convince your parents to support you for professional blogging.

Goals and Plans about Your Blog:

If you want to start blogging for bread and butter then it is as similar as to start a business. Just like a business, blogging also needs a proper plan to be successful. You should have good plans to accomplish your goals. You should go for professional blogging if you have a proper plan and set of goals to achieve. Treat blogging as your business.

Income From Blog:

As I already stated that professional blogging is like a business, so you should keep a thing in mind that no one can earn huge money from the first day of business. You can earn good amount of bucks from blogging but not from the day one. It can take one month, two months or so but If you are not able to earn single penny from blogging even after 1 year then you should not waste your time anymore in blogging. If you don’t want to stop blogging then choose it as a part time activity and unless you start making enough money from it, don’t go for professional blogging.

Marketing and SEO Skills:

Blogging requires marketing skill by which you can convince people to read your blog. It also needs SEO skills by which you can drive organic traffic to your blog easily. If you can drive traffic to your blog via SEO and marketing tactics then you can easily make some good bucks via blogging.
