Practice in private. Shine on a public stage.
I have easily written millions of words during my blogging career between my writing practice and free or premium blogging offerings.

Readers see you as being valuable if you offer value persistently.

Promote rocking bloggers on your blog by featuring them. Or maybe you can interview a successful blogger from your niche.
Share other blogger’s content on social media.
Write authentic, meaty comments on authority blogs from your niche to add value to posts and to build prospering friendships with top bloggers.
Help them in any way that you can.
Over time, connections, or bonds, develop, building your blogging friend network impressively.
Donna Merrill is a shining example of a successful blogger who knows how to connect.
She has helped legions of bloggers for years, promoting her friends without looking for anything in return.
Now, when she publishes a blog post or promotes her blogging products and services, her army of blogging buddies shares her content far and wide, expanding her reach.
Her blogging friends – and their followers – hire her or buy her rocking products.
Success freely flows to the connected blogger.
But the connected blogger has to do the connecting in the first place, helping folks without looking for anything in return.
Generosity is prospering like that.

Remember I said to follow your passion, blogging-wise?
Ditto for your blog monetizing streams.
Monetizing your passions makes the work, the reward. All else – sales, clients, customers – feels like extra, or the icing on the cake.
If you love to write, self-publish Kindle eBooks and become a freelance writer.
Learning the craft of monetizing these streams feels fun, rewarding, and enjoyable, so you will detach from outcomes and patiently develop your skills until the money flows in.
Alonzo Pichardo is an excellent example of someone who monetizes their passions.
He genuinely enjoys helping people for free so he has become highly successful at monetizing services he feels passionate about.

Hello,
A Happy New Year :)
Good shout over here :)
Surely successful blogging is not just a rocket science which can be applied, to get a over night success.
There plenty of things which need to be keep in mind to crave out a perfect blog. Its good to know about the passion
in which we are interested in, so that we can keep the blog flooded with. Some people start blogging with some random
niche and end up in giving up their blogging journey.
Taking a help guide from the pro bloggers is very essential, we need to follow them and learn tactics from them.
They can help us in our dark times and help us to get along with our blogging carrier.
Practice is the key, daily writing 1000 words in the rough and learning new words is very important.
Thanks for the share.
Shantanu.
