There are tons of blogs out there, many of them, teaching how to make money blogging. Abandoned housewives, or have to work from home moms, trying to make it blogging, many without a single chance and some pretty good. I bumped into a self proclaimed affiliate marketing guru woman, making at the most $100 month on commissions, but nevertheless was charging an unbelievable $95 an hour for coaching. But there are some pretty good blogs out there, many of them, original, and, undiscovered.
Some of the Blogs I Follow
Cartoon Smart http://cartoonsmartblog.wordpress.com - Justin Dyke is a master by any measure, where several times I contacted him, making a point to pay for a tutorial I got for free. His blog is also very good. Recommended!
Jet Citizen.http://www.jetsetcitizen.com/: This is very original. He writes about living overseas and making a living. Very interesting.
ShoeMoney. http://www.shoemoney.com/ Jeremy Schoemaker is intelligent, bold, some times brilliant and many times crosses the line to make his money. Once a Sears salesman, he started on a webhosting company to eventually become one of the top schemers on how to make money online. 140.000+ subscribers (RSS+Twitter). I definitely DO NOT recommend his techniques for everyone, but if you want to know a lot of stuff that you will not see on the news (or perhaps will), this is the address.
Chef Patrick http://www.chefpatrick.com. He is OK. It is very easy to see he does have a real, strong passion for domain trade, and he is very updated on what is happening on the industry. Recently voted as the most influential domainer, with a very good reason.
All of these guys are married over 30, by the way. I do follow some other 20 blogs, for different reasons.
The point I want to make is that the vast majority of the blogs wants audience.
Whatever The Mind Can Conceive it Can Achieve
This quote is attributed to Clement Stone. The fact is that if you strongly, frequently think about a specific person, you end up attracting him or her. I have plenty of sources and proofs for that. Now this battalion of bloggers, you can not only think about them but they also read and moderate most of their posts, and the first comment of their last post, specifically. You can communicate.
So you can select the person, by following the blog, make a point of be the first to post frequently and think of him, you will gradually create a relationship, and if you take money out of the picture, there will always be something for both sides, specially if you have your own merchandise to peddle.
Bottom Line: It will always pay to choose your friends and be really interested in people.
