Blogging Misconceptions some Bloggers have

blogging misconceptions

Everyday is a good day to learn new hacks and learning more about blogging is something I wish to keep doing. I hope you'd want to learn also...
I once had some of these blogging misconceptions and I may not be wrong to say I'm not alone on this one...

1. You Have to Post Every Day
This actually isn't true. You don't grab a user’s attention just by merely throwing contents at them, you should know that quality is way better than quantit. So, just a few posts a week that are unique, solid, interesting and informative is enough to grab the readers you wish to grab and much better than so much posts that are short, uninteresting, pointless, scrappy and useless.

2. Good Content Gets Found
I always thought this way until I realized it was a farce... Most times bloggers get wrongly informed tha when you make your posts extremely good and satisfying, visitors will come, But truth is, creating a great blog post doesn't mean it’s going to get thousands of clicks, shares and tweets... you obviously have to work for it and make it stand out from the crowd. And brilliant posts don't just get to the top of a search, it takes more time.

3. You can just start a free blog and start making money.
Someone asked me to create a download site for him because he felt once his visitors download the videos uploaded, he makes some cash... Well! Obviously some crazy idea he had about owning a site... If you’re thinking about delving into blogging so you could start raking in the money, you might want to reconsider your decision because it doesn't work that way.

4. Blogging is Easy
Well, most of us had this misconception and trust me, we end up getting damned, by experience. Most times just searching for the right title takes more time than writing the post. I spend more than an hour in crafting just one post and In addition to writing the posts, each posts have to formatted, proof-read, and edited and you still need to search for images or photographs to be edited by you. So how easy has blogging been for.

5. Everything have been blogged thus nothing to blog about.
There is nothing that have been blogged about that can not be re-blogged, what matters is your uniqueness. There are tons of blog posts pointing to the same direction but in different tones.

So what blogging misconception do or did you have?

An Unbiased Infolinks Review

Today, I will be going over the adnetwork, infolinks.com in my own way. let's find out if it is a good adsense alternative or one that can be used with adsense. Discovering Infolinks I found out about infolinks while searching for AdSense alternatives when I was unable to get AdSense approved for my account, Then I applied with my previous blog but darn, the blog probably did not meet their demands and I was never approved. Few months laters I got AdSense approved for my blog but that didn't live long enough, to my detriment and after been blown off by the infamous Adsense Disablement ish (made me ditch my previous blog)... Months after setting up my new blog, I had to look for an AdSense alternative, and every research I made, didn't exclude Infolinks, and this made me think highly of them and so I had to give an application another shot, this time within a day, I got approved to display ads on my blog... Bam! Such a nice achievement... Getting To Understa...
