    Hey guys,
    there are so many bloggers out there and only the small minority are successful.

    I have come up with 5 Reason Why You Will Fail At Blogging

    I would love to hear you thoughts, and if you think it is any good, I wouldn't mind a digg or a stumble ;)

    thanks
    Tom

    There's some truth in what you say. I too have been guilty of some of those.

    thanks guys...

    I may have been a little harsh, but there are so many money focused bloggers that don't care about their content or their subscribers.

    I am a big believer in providing quality, unique content and the visitors and money will follow - it just may take a little longer!

    A great post and reminder Tom

    Lack of focus rates a mention too......usually caused by information overload, failing to manage our own time, and failing to study and APPLY the basics step by step

    lol, I found them actually funny. It does require a lot of hard work and persistence in earning from your blog.

    hey guys! thanks for the amazing response. I understand it was a bit harsh, but it was written in a tongue in cheek way just to see what the response would be, and I was overwhelmed. This post has become my 3rd most view page of all time in less than one day. With over 160 views!

    It really opened my eyes to what type of posts attract people!

    And @ Leo - I totally agree with you, there is not knowing enough, and there is trying to learn to much to quick!

    I agree with your comments nice post. Most people fail because of lack of time and not being a true expert at their niche. Having unique content is the best way to succeed.
