   Hi Kharim,

   Great post!

   I agree. Many people fall to this trap. They see and aim for the money first.

   But the thing is, if you provide value and if you only think about ‘How can I provide more VALUE’ instead of ‘How can I make more money’, the money will follow itself!

   Cheers

   • Kharim Tomlinson says:

     Exactly my point Nabeel. Money is the shadow of blogging success. If you are successful at blogging then you will be successful at making money

   Hi Kharim,

   Excellent points!

   Money in and of itself is a great thing; chasing it is a bad idea though because when you do something for the money you forget the real reason why you’re doing what you’re doing: to help others by providing a valuable service.

   The thing about blogging or any activity is the less you do it for the money, the more money you make. This is because you’re blogging for the love of blogging and this passion attract great things like awesome people, opportunities and of course money.

   Thanks for sharing your insight

   Interesting post today. I am on Twitter and Facebook and though there are some good things on them there are also a lot of people that are just out there for themselves. For example, I am in real estate and it is amazing how many people I am following that use the sites above for another avenue to post “their” stuff. I know that we all need to survive in this world and work is one of those ways, but what about helping and assisting someone else out before thinking about yourself? Interesting post. Thank you again and look forward to more.

   I like the points of this “Blog Commenting / Networking”, “you can strike a conversation. And become friends with that blog owner.”

   I’m new at blogging, I still have a lot to learn, I need a lot of friends who can help me.

   thanks for great sharing
   • Kharim says:

    Got it right on the money Kharim (no pun intended )

    I think we all get a little wrapped up in our blogs sometime that we forget there’s so much in the world we can be learning from. Being on your blog all day will quickly burn you out and, in some ways, make you stale because you’re not out there experiencing new things.

    My advice is for everyone to set aside some time (or even a whole day!) we’re you’re in offline mode. Take this time to spend with family/friends, read (like you said), go out to places and push beyond your boundaries.

    You’ll always come back with fresh ideas for great posts
    • Kharim says:

      thanks Murlu
11. KS Chen says:

    Interesting title! Yes, you are right Kharim! We should not always think of money. The content and traffic should come first before the money. We should focus on putting more effort on our blog before thinking about making money from it. Thanks for your sharing!

    When I started blogging, my ultimate aim was just to deliver quality contents to my readers, but when later i have changed my mind when I was in need of online income. So later I changed my website design that help to make money from Ads. But it didn’t affect the structure of website since I made so many modification.

    Fantastic post. It is better to concentrate on quality first and then other things will follow. At least that is one vital lesson I have learnt since I started blogging.

    You talk as if we are addicted to blogging.

    Nice information, thanks for sharing this post. I think lots of people blog because it is cool way of making additional money and not because of the love for blogging…
