Why Blogging Is My Favorite Form of Internet Marketing<\/h2>\n

I\u2019ve been involved in many various forms of internet marketing throughout my career \u2013 from creating websites for big companies to generating social media marketing for businesses through online outlets such as Facebook and Twitter.\u00a0 While I was achieving quite a bit of success servicing companies through my internet marketing business, I realized one important flaw<\/strong> in my business model.\u00a0 I was growing all these other companies for the long term and creating a big customer following for the companies I worked with instead of my own<\/em>.\u00a0 I would have big hits of cash into my 1-man business a few times a month but after those checks came in my revenue stream would dry up unless I hustled for new clients.<\/p>\n

If you have a 9-5 job then you\u2019re essentially doing the same thing.\u00a0 Day after day you\u2019re growing the business you\u2019re working for while you get the same amount of money month after month for your efforts \u2013 all while the guy on top gets rich<\/strong>. I realized I needed to change my business model in order to create a reoccurring stream of revenue for my family and give myself the freedom to enjoy that new found wealth with them.<\/p>\n

After spending some time talking to a few friends that were also in the internet marketing field I eventually met with a friend over a beer that had a successful blog in the finance industry.\u00a0 The funny thing was that this particular friend would be the last person<\/em> I\u2019d imagine having a personal finance blog.\u00a0 As it turned out his daily \u201chobby\u201d was watching the stock market (usually at his desk in his cubicle when he should have been working for \u201cthe man\u201d) and he had started a blog on the topic one year earlier from the day we had met at the bar. \u00a0He went on to tell me how he had plans of quitting his day job the following month to go full time into his blogging career.\u00a0 It was over that beer that the light bulb went off in my head and I knew that I needed to get my own blogging career jump started.<\/p>\n

Note: \u2013 social media promotion is also very important for your blog if you really want to get success in your blogging career. social media can sent you lots of visitors to your blog.<\/p>\n

Why You Might Fail at Blogging<\/h2>\n
