Blogging for love or money... Blogging for Dollars!

If you’re anything like me, your blog is probably your hobby.

Like most hobbies, it probably isn’t financially rewarding! As a matter of fact, most of the hobbies we get sucked into rob us of our quality tee-vee time and lunch money.

Well, whether you realize it or not, blogs are big... Real BIG.

They’re very much in the news these days too! The mainstream news! Just look at the impact they have made recently, in the last few days as I write, in relation to the Indian Ocean Tsunami Disaster, were Blogs have featured strongly, helping people find people, mobilising Appeals for money and generally providing very quick and responsive information about the the horrendous event.

Blogs are everywhere on the Internet.  Even Google and MSN are fighting over who gets to host your free blog. Hmmm... Think about that. Why would Google and MSN give away a service that some software and hosting companies are charging upwards of $200 per year for?

The answer is, they want your RSS feeds.

Your free blog creates highly targeted traffic to their search engines which in turn they can sell advertising (like Adsense) on.

Imagine being able to cash in on some of that traffic yourself. After all, you are the author, they are simply the publisher. Would you write a book and give it away for free? Would you write a song and not expect to receive royalties?

Take a look at this web site I recently discovered. It shows you how to turn your hobby into a profit center for your family:
