Like everyone else who is into making money online, some people went in hoping to make a lot of money but they gave up when they don't see any money in their bank account.
This is the same mistake that a lot of people are making.
You should not have this kind of mentality at all.
If your mentality is just about making money, I can guarantee you that you will not be very successful.
No doubt that you will be able to make some money but it won't be a lot.
Take for example Problogger who is now making a 6 figure income, I believe he didn't have the "I want to make money" mentality.
He started blogging as an interest and he did it with lots of passion.
He is able to produce good quality content that people would love to read.
I myself love to read his blog because it has a lot of useful information.
I even take down some of his notes for reference.
From a reader's perspective, you can see whether a person is just there for the money or he really wants to add value to his reader.
So in order not to make the same mistake that the rest of the people are making, you got to find out what are your hobbies or things that you know a lot.
One of the benefit of this is that you will be able to last longer and you will enjoy it more.
Secondly, the things you produce will be much better which can have a viral effect.
From a blogger's point of view, he will definitely get a lot of traffic.
