There’s two facets of making money online that are extremely important. There’s attracting traffic, and there’s monetizing that traffic. All else is ultimately done in service of these two.

I’m not saying the blog can’t be just for fun, or that a just-for-fun blog can’t make money. But in order to make money, you absolutely need traffic (of some kind) and a way to monetize it! It’s kind of like how in sales, you need customers and something to sell to them. Just one or the other isn’t going to help you much!

Thanks for dropping by!
I’m sorry to hear about your experiences with adsense. You must to contact adsense’s staff and ask them what to do. I’m sure they have a solution for your problem.
And by the way, Granny, you have a nice site and your nephew is very cute

You are too right.

I’m feeling a little bitter because of my negative experiences with adsense… just when I start to think there is a possibility of earning something… feels like a breakthrough… bang, they don’t really ban me.. they just start screwing around with my previous username (not a gmail address) so that I am confused out of my mind and unable to get back into my account. Total crazy-making stuff. And what recourse do I have? None. I’m pretty sure I am not the only person who has been bamboozled by google adsense. grrr.

Thanks! You have right. Many people see John Chow’s blog, for example, and said Wow! I make today a blog and tomorrow I will be rich!

Thanks for your comment. Yes, making money from blogs takes time and I don’t know why some people think that this is very easy.

Very interesting article! Most people only hear about Blogging Celebrities and Superstars, but they are the very tip of the iceberg. Few new bloggers have the time and the patience needed to grow their blog to the point where it actually makes money - these people, you DON’T hear about.

I don’t think I want to argue with you what you say.

I think it is exactly right.
