1. Blogging is difficult. It can consume hours of your day just to write one post. This requires a lot of research and a lot of time writing.

2. Better posts = more traffic. Having more traffic means more money made from your blog. Google Adsense works so that the more traffic you receive, the more potential you have for making money.

3. Being consistent is the key. By writing everyday I have been able to maintain a constant level of users. When I stopped writing on one my blogs, the users stopped, slowly my traffic went down to zero.

4. Making any money beyond paying for hosting costs is difficult. Remember Adsense won’t even send you a check until you reach $100. This has to also be reached according to their rules of conduct. Do not click on your own ads!

5. Besides for all the struggling that goes into blogging, its fun. I have learned a lot about internet marketing and how to drive traffic to my blog. Even if I don’t ever make good money from this blog, at least I have learned how hard it is to get users and the steps that go into it.
