Why do you Blog?

Why do you Blog?

Following on from my previous article where I talked about blogging for money and why I said it was a bad idea I thought I would try and find out why you decided to start blogging. In the previous article I also talked about why I started blogging and I would like to touch up on that subject again here.

Why do I blog?

I started blogging to learn about Internet marketing as I believe that there is no better way to learn about a subject than to involve it in to your everyday life. In this case I started a blog on Internet marketing (this one) and started to learn about Internet marketing for two reasons. One so I could write posts and educate others on what Internet marketing is and how you can do it and the second being so I could promote my blog and build my blog in to a large well established blog.

However I reached a certain point in my blogging career where I had learnt a large percentage of the information available on Internet marketing and found myself not learning as much but instead teaching others. Looking back it was kind of obvious that this would happen at one stage considering the amount of information I would digest each day.

So now the reasons why I blog have changed.

Although I don’t blog to learn about Internet marketing any more I do blog to teach others about Internet marketing and I would say that was my main focus when blogging currently. However other reasons for blogging have also become clear. I do try and make an income from blogging however as I have mentioned before this can be much more difficult than one first considers. I also have strict boundaries on what I promote on this blog and how I promote on this blog because I don’t want you, my readers to think that I am just writing articles to make money rather than to actually teach you how to promote your websites more effectively. Another reason I blog is to network, to be able to communicate with other bloggers and Internet marketers so that I can learn from them and hopefully they can learn from me.

Enough about me though, I am very keen to know more about the reasons why my readers decided to blog. Please comment below and tell me and everyone else why you started to blog and whether your reasons for blogging have changed over the duration from when you first started blogging.
