1. The name blogging carries so much excitement in it, a person blogs for some reason to raise the publicity or to advertise. Once when you open up your blogs network, you go on and on until the day comes when even after providing so much of useful information you are not getting any response, then you start expecting from your audience, isn’t that a mere selfishness on your part to ask some favor in return for what all things you were
   

   providing to your audience all these days. There comes a time in your life that you don’t want to give any more but want to take back something as a return favor, it may be advertisements, selling products from your site through affiliate marketing, or leave some good comments to attract more audience. In a blog everything happens with patience, you have to be very careful on each and every stage of blogging.

2. You start a little bit of sluggishness as a blogger, a time comes in your blogging career that you just want to leave everything and hide in bushes, this is the time when your readers need you the most and you are out there wandering to hide your face from the public.
3. Blogging success doesn’t come in one day; you have to be patient enough to enjoy the fruits in later part of your life as a successful blogger. Many people are so much impatient that even before one month passes, they start expecting big bucks from blogging but it doesn’t happen that way.
4. Blogging in a modern world is totally different then what it used to be 5 years back, its more of money making today with so much advertisers and marketing opportunities. The content that you write must be attractive and interesting, if there is any sort of a lame feeling in it, the blog is not going to be successful.
5. The identification is the most important things to be a
   

   successful blogger, I remember the days when I started off, and how I wanted to be like my idol. Its good to have inspiration from the leaders you follow but in the real world you need to have your own voice. Be original.

6. You may like varied topics to blog about, but the interest of your audience is what all matters at the end, get the topics which your audience are interested in reading, no one cares what your feelings are and what you want to talk about. Don’t show what is unimportant and insignificant; count on your reader’s choice first.
7. After a period of time in blogging world, you become sort of rude or a crude person, I totally understand the stages you went through.
