The other day, I asked whether you would blog for a living if you could. I got some great responses from you guys!

In this video, you’ll take a car trip to the post office with me. I’m heading down to check my PO Box to see if I have any checks waiting for me. While I drive, I share some of my thoughts on blogging for a living and why I personally love this line of work…

When I asked you guys about this, I got some great responses…

Going full-time with blogging is exactly what I am going to do. I committed to the effort months ago and continue to march toward that end.

My friend Tony Teegarden said:

Short answer? Would I go full time? Sure, as long as my blog developed me freedom and I wasn’t a prisoner of it. Leverage and true freedom is based on systems. I believe a blog can do that if set up properly.

I’d go for full-time with my blog, or maybe full-time *income* to be more precise. Why? The financial freedom is a compelling thought and something that inspires me to keep going. And I can’t deny that it feels good to put my experiences and expertise out there, with hopes that it will help others.

One comment I’d like to respond to is that of Darren Slaughter. He said:

Great question. And for most people it really is the “dream.” Problem is, once it goes from being a passion to source of income and a proper business, it also looses some of it’s luster.

Not to mention, making money, real money, as in replace your current income, blog on the beach type money doesn’t happen all that often.

I have talked to so called A-listers that confirm not making enough from their blogs to pay the bandwidth bill. So, while blogging for a living is a fantastic fantasy, reality says otherwise.

Blogging as a business is more than a “dream”. It is very much possible. And, it doesn’t lose any luster when you are making money. If anything, it motivates you even more to keep going with it. But, the statement “blog on the beach type money doesn’t happen all that often” seems to suggest that there is some other factor (like luck) which determines your success. NOT TRUE. It might not happen very often, but that is because most bloggers don’t know what steps to take to make it happen. Also, most bloggers are left to figure it out on their own and don’t really have help from those who have done it outside of free blog content (which often gives pieces to a puzzle but doesn’t really connect the dots).

Blogging for a living isn’t a fantasy. It can be done. The fact is that most “a-list” bloggers don’t know the first thing about marketing and that is why they can manage to build up a blog and yet make barely any money. What I’m here to show you is that there IS an approach to blogging which will lead to money. And I’d like to walk you through that approach.

And on that note…
