What once started as simple accounts of personal diary, is today almost a part of mainstream media. It’s the weblog, or blog if you prefer. Initially, blogging was just another web-generated pleasure to resort to in free time in order to connect with readers who share (or, don’t share) your ideas and concepts. Now, it is a serious game in the sense that it can fetch you good amount of money.
According to some, if you’re a regular blogger, and serve a niche (yet popular) reader-segment, you may soon have good reason to leave your 8 to 5 job to plunge full-time into blogging. How do you earn? By allocating space in your blog-site for ad-display (like this site has), you create opportunity to enable your blog-readers to click on the ads, thereby generating income for you. There may be other ways too, like syndicating your blog, but primarily click-generated income is more in vogue.
Questions that raise heads immediately are like how much one can expect to earn, how many visitors can be reasonably expected to see your blog, who would fetch most number of visitors (whether SEs like Google, Yahoo, Live, etc. or Blog SEs like Technorati, Feedster, etc.), and so on.
If you’re waist-deep into blogging, hoping to dip deeper, you’d surely look for answers to some of these questions. If so, have a look at this survey by SurveyMonkey.
