To start with a very basic question;
Why start blogging?
Answer is;
The majority of the bloggers are doing blogging to make an extra source of income—and so are you! Even those masters and experts—and even me.
We all are trying to build a passive source of income through blogging. However, we always try to keep our intention of blogging as sharing new insights, thoughts, and ideas.
What blogging is and how it can transform your lifestyle and financial situation is a long discussion. Possibly, it has successfully transformed many bloggers into millionaires and helped tons of businesses (and still helping them) to generate organic leads and customers.
Is Blogging a Source good of Passive Income?
Blogging is seen as a source of passive income. That’s okay! But so many beginners start blogging and fail without earning even a single dollar.
The obvious question is;
Is blogging really effective as a passive source of income? And, why do you believe even if I say YES?
Firstly, YES, blogging is an effective source of passive income.
And, why should you believe me?
Because I successfully did it! I made overall more than $1500 during my first 6-8 months of blogging journey.
Here are the screenshots of earning dashboard:
Recently I applied for Google AdSense and easily got approval. However, I display minimum Ads on my blog to keep visitors’ or readers’ experiences good.
This Google AdSense earning is expected to boost as traffic increases.
Additionally, as you write blogs, publish them, market them get readers, get comments, and receive appreciation from colleagues and friends—all of it gives a beautiful feeling.
However, the best feeling would be—when you receive your first earning.
I remember the day I first received my first revenue from blogging (About 65$). I couldn’t sit in one place. It was popping. And, so you will be too.
NOW!
How can you crack blogging successfully?
How can you make money from blogging successfully?
The answer is: through Consistent efforts.
And, I would tell you straightforwardly; if you don’t work consistently—you will start losing hope and interest in your blogging.
Blogging Success Mantra
Having a good thinking ability is awesome—but action rules the kingdom.
When I started my BLOG, I was kind of “Planning More Than Acting”. And as a result, I had to wait longer for my revenue.
And here is the secret—plan just a week ahead
If you think more on what’s not needed, then you just spend less time on what’s needed.
So, don’t just think.
Get up and start the working. Start taking actions—fail, retry, fail again, try again, fail better, stand again until you WIN the blogging game.

History of Blogging!
The credit for starting goes to—Justin Hall.
A student, 1994 (well, I was born one year after this on 18 Dec.) who started creating diary-like notes on the web. It was initially not called as “Blog”, until 1997 when John Barger coined the word “Weblog“.
Weblog = web + log. Which means log on to your web. (a normal feature-based name)
Slowly, and by 1999, weblog was shorted to “blog”.
Easy to pronounce. Isn’t it?
Even though there were only 23 blogs on the internet in 1999, just two decades later, we have about 600 million blogs on the internet.
That’s a BIG number.
And, with the rising importance of blogs, and with so many high earning possibilities—blogs are rapidly growing at a very high rate.

Finally, What is a Blog?
Coming straight to the definition of the blog,
A blog is a diary-like content that is self-published online. The content need not always be in written text format. It can be images, infographics, videos, lists, etc. However, the text is the most popular one.
Blogs are usually meant to be written by one author, or few invited authors.
But…
Businesses saw its enormous potential in making sales, advertisement, customer engagement ,etc., and so there is a complete new species of content writers born—missioned with writing blogs for businesses and promoting it for marketing benefits.
Such blogs have multiple writers working on one blogs. (a web logs with multiple authors)
So, that all about blogs you need to know as beginners!
