When you realize that your blog is not where you would like it to be, either with monetizing it, or with getting as much traffic as you would like, then what the heck will you do? Will you continue to post everyday and not think about it? Well, that is what a lot of you are doing that are making pennies off your blogs. You have big hopes that something special will happen. Well guess what? Wishing and hoping for things doesn’t get you anywhere.

Don’t just think that one day money will fall into your lap if you keep blogging about blogs, or crap that others don’t care to click on ads for. You are wasting a load of time. If you are trying to monetize with adsense, you are wasting it. This blog does not do well with adsense. That is a given. Another thing that is factual is that the reality of blogging, and what you need to do to survive and make money is simple, but difficult for a stubborn man. With a few nice solid punches from some friends that see me doing the same thing over and over without results in the bank, I was able to get my blog on straight.

Since this blog has been going, I have gotten into a lot of other things. Other things that really do pay out. So if you are visiting this blog and hoping that you will make it big with a generalized blog yourself, or just write about random things and do well you, then you are wasting your time and efforts. But wait…. Did you really waste all that time? To a certain extent you sure did. Now make some use of what you have built already though. Have you built backlinks? Does you blog have some nice authority? If so then its time to use that blog to pump up something else that can really make money.

What I am saying is this. If you are linking out to people, you are helping them, whether its a little or a lot. Why not link out to yourself. Find another niche and stop wasting your time. Then use the authority you have built up with your current “I will teach you how I make NO money blog”, to actually get a niche blog going by linking to something relevant within. As someone told me, a link is a link is a link is a link. So stop wasting your time and branch out to something that can payoff and payout for you. I guess your monetized blog isn’t a total failure. Oh, and if you think a couple bucks a day is a success, then you really have no idea.
