Where Blogging Can Take You

A couple of years ago I explained what it was I did for a living to someone at a social club I belonged to. "Why?" she asked, "Where will blogging take you?" At the time I couldn’t answer that. Blogging was blogging. It could take me to new levels of blogging. Perhaps I’d earn six figures, who knows?  Today I can answer in a more knowledgeable fashion. I just accepted a full time position as blogger and Community Manager for Blog Talk Radio. The job involves two of the things i love best, blogging and social networking.

Thinking Outside the Network Blog

Personally, I haven’t found it all that hard to find blogging work. There are a ton of blog jobs out there. Granted, some I’ve liked more than others, but it’s work.

Another idea, if you happen to be seeking blogging gigs, is to convince someone to hire you to create a specialty blog just for them. All kinds of business and non-profits have blogs, but for each business or non-profit that does have one, [Read more…]

How to Tell if a Blogging Gig is Right for You

As people who blog for a living, many of us have a hard to saying no to gigs, whether we’re right for them or not. We’ve discussed this before, but if you’re going to be talking about a particular subject day in and day out, you better be right for the topic. Accepting a gig that isn’t right for you only means both you and your readers won’t enjoy what you do. So how do you know if a blogging gig is right for you? 1.
