As for the real tricks and steps involved in making that kind of money, I doubt if they disclose any. All that they make people do is to sign up and be their readers forever.

But wait, there will be an ebook released shortly that will contain this exact information. And as usual, it will cost me a weeks pay to read a few traffic building tips already available on various blogs on the internet.

And this, my friends, sums up a blog readers experience with an MMO blogger (of course, generally speaking)

I sometimes at office work on blog and don’t work the official work. But if i properly calculate per hour earnings. Job work fetches a lot compared to what blog fetches. Yet i am more interested in Blog

I think most of them are like me only. Is that so?

#16 Goes on commenting on “n” no.of blogs – “Great Post. Visit my blog at http………….”

#17 Quite often plagiarises the content & presents it almost exactly but with headings like “10 ways ……..” , “5 smart tips….”.

@Donace, haha… what I meant is that, for the kind of effort involved, one needs to earn at least that much to compensate for the hardwork.

@Kim, the reason for that comment is that, I know a couple of people who are skilled at writing. They could do freelancing or do a technical writer job but they decide to run MMO blogs, spend a lot of time online to make nothing much..

@Harish, I am glad you realize the importance of studies. At your age, that is the most important thing! Retire @ 21 is not for everyone… probably one outta 10000 would have made it and he made it out of that 9999 who bought into his idea.

@Lax, at my age and experience level, the supplimentary income from my blog makes sense only if it’s something really good (As I mentioned, say a minimum $10 an hour for a 3-4 hours a day). Hopefully, the long term aspects are brighter.

@BinaryDay, well, $100 for 10 days of inactivity is not at all bad… I am not that lucky all the time… I make only $150 to $250 per month from this blog but probably it’s not that bad compared to its traffic figures. And that’s why I said, putting on a lot of online time is not worth for the kind of returns (I am forcibly reducing my online commitments these days)

And in my particular case, my regular job fetches me more than the kind of hourly rate I mentioned. God alone knows for how long!

I shall check out your article once again…

@Kurt, Writing what you like is the most important thing. And you are right. To earn, you don’t need to have an MMO blog though MMO blogs will fetch you money via additional channels.

@frenchy, thanks for yuor support I guess, I was trying to reflect myself and read others’ minds.

@Pras, absolutely! You are right, you need a roadmap and give it a long term outlook. Even people like problogger or john chow started monetizing after building the foundation.

@Raju, right. A lot of them feel that writing a few posts a week is like a major career by itself. Studies! aahh, god save the younger generation who are always online!

@Dennis, you are right buddy. Blog contests are there everywhere…but I have seen that most MMO blogs kick off with a contest

Thanks everyone for your views. As usual, the idea was not to pick on anybody but being satirical on the current state of affairs…

“”People who blog about a topic because they love it succeed while people who do it for the sake of money alone end up getting frustrated.”"

Thats it. People who have been reading my blog since I started must have notice how I keep changing the articles… well when I blog I blog upon my taste…even if am writing smthing for google trend,..it must be something that I feel pleasure to write about it…

MMO… i dnt trust that word much now lol.. Infact I think we can earn with a blog but working to be an mmo wont earn us so much..instead blogging with a real taste about topics that you like is what can actually bring some incomes.

I am not a MMO blogger. But what you say holds true for all bloggers. People who blog about a topic because they love it succeed while people who do it for the sake of money alone end up getting frustrated.

I am afraid, you may be missing the long term value of a blog. I have been unable to blog for last 10-12 days due to an issue with my internet connection at home. However when I checked my stats from an internet cafe yesterday, I was surprised to see that binaryday has made more than 100$ in the last 10 days. 100$ for doing nothing is not that bad.

$8 an hour??????? which country are you talking about. In India we get paid 30k per month for working 60 hours a week. And I am talking about engineers from bluechip colleges

Btw I have updated my post about backlink building. Will you please go through it and let me know your suggestions to improve it? Especially some images to convey the ideas will help me greatly.

Blogging is long term, we can’t expect lots of money at this moment. But this should go along with the day job until you make at least double digit per day.

you may earn twice to your day job, but this takes time and people how bare this can earn in future

People are so funny that way. They don’t want to do something that they consider to be “beneath” them even if they will earn a lot more money doing it.
