We cannot blame it if people tend to always associate blogging with making money. This is true and practically this is what most people are aiming for when they are blogging.

There are however more to blogging than just the numbers. Successful blogging is not just about having the most traffic or getting more ad campaigns. If that is the only goal you have when you entered blogging, then, your success will only be temporary.

What is essential in blogging is that you are able to relay your thoughts in a way that it may affect the lives of those who read it. Establishing connection with your reader and viewer is what will make you last in blogging. That connection is shown through their comments and feedbacks on a certain blog or on your entire blog site.

Sales or traffic is actually just secondary to having a successful blog. It will come to you as more and more people are connected to you. It is easy to get people read your blog for the first time but letting them read more is not just a walk in the park. If your blog does not contain substantial information which may be of help to some, or does not state any facts which readers can learn from, then you are just wasting your time. Readers trust is earned. Your blog may be read by many but it will not serve its purpose. It will just be read but not necessarily be understood.
