WHY BLOGGERS FAIL
WHY BLOGGERS FAIL
According to one source, there are more than 164 million blogs…
Most of these blogs get less than 1,000 visitors per month, and the harsh reality is, the majority of those blogs are, for lack of a better word, failures.
What’s unfortunate is, in that group of people, I’m betting there’s someone just like you….
…Someone who believed pumping out good content will generate the leads and sales they need to run a profitable business.
…Someone who believed a journalist or Google would notice their hard work—and reward them with an endless supply of traffic that converts.
…Someone who put the work in, and things just didn’t pan out.
The question is “WHY!?!”
And most important, how can you BEAT THE ODDS?
Why do bloggers (and the blogs they create) fail?
And more important, how do “some” people beat the odds…
…and build blogs that help them build HUGE businesses?
The answer lies in:
The Psychology Behind Why Blogs Fail
I’ll be straight up with you because I know you expect nothing less.
Most people who start blogs dream about their blog soaring to Everest-level subscriber numbers.
(Who doesn’t want to make a splash?)
And they’re willing to do the work, too. They’re not looking for handouts, they want to earn their success.
(Sound familiar?)
So, what happens?
It turns out that most people who start blogs quit within the first 3 months.
Why?
It’s simple. When people start blogs, they do the wrong things.
And the problem is, when they spend time on all those things they find something strange happens:
They’ll waste their first 3 months, and they’ll have NOTHING to show for it other than a bunch of social media logins, passwords, and the belief that “I’ll be ready to go, when I just finish this one thing…”
But they’ll have NO RESULTS.
And that lack of results will demotivate the MOST AMBITIOUS individual.
(I’ve been there…)
It’s human psychology.
(The more time you spend working on something without a reward, the harder it is to continue doing it).
And that’s why, I believe, most bloggers fail.
They start their blog with good intentions, but fall off the beaten path because they waste time on pointless drivel that doesn’t deliver what they really want: more traffic… more leads… more sales.
It’s sad, but it doesn’t have to be that way.
Sure we all want to make money off what we are doing but I do think that we get into the wants of life a little to fast. Its always important to build a relationship before you go and try to make the sell. Learning what best suites the person is key, possibly they my not need anything it is that you are good at. They might have a Idea that might be able to combine with your idea but in fact you might be to busy trying to sell them, that you will talk your self out of a very sweet deal. Sure We want the Money but sometimes it not the best thing to try to get first :)
