Is Blogging A Lucrative Skill?

Blogging is a lucrative skill that can fetch you a lot of dollars, given that you are dedicated and consistent. I felt like making this post after my brother Isaiah Amos made a post about quitting his job to focus on blogging.

Now let me tell you a little story about my blogging career.

I finished secondary school at the age of 15. After my graduation, I worked in a POS in Ogun State. I was working under someone at that time as a blogger. At that time, I worked with Helen Oluwaseyi Ojo as a content writer. While working, I borrowed money from one of my colleagues to create a website. I struggled and studied so hard about SEO on Youtube.

After some time, I left Ogun State for Lagos State due to the exposure in Lagos.

When I arrived in Lagos, I worked in a Cyber Cafe where I raised money to hire an expert to run both Onpage and Offpage SEO since I wasn’t getting the complete concept on Youtube. I spent about N30,000 then without earning a dime in the first two months. Well, I did not quit; instead, I put in more work.

Along the line, I started earning 100$ per month, and I quit the job as a Cyber Cafe attendant. I have no option but to stop and focus on my blogging career. I was scared at first, but when I eventually quit, I never regretted it.

These are the points I want you to note:

1. PUT GOD FIRST
2. FIND A JOB TO RAISE MONEY TO FUND YOUR BLOG
3. INVEST AND WORK LIKE YOU NEVER INVESTED
4. PUT IN MORE WORK AND PRAY
5. TRUST THE PROCESS AND AVOID SOCIAL MEDIA PRESSURE.
