    because everyone thinks that blogging is easy and that if you will have a blog you will get traffic....what is being forgotten is that the successful bloggers have take several years to become an overnight success

    a) They, like the rest of us, hate selling their lives off for income
    b) Like the rest of us, they have something to say, and blogging lets them say it
    c) As soon as they get online, they get sucked onto IM mailing lists that continually sell them on the idea that they can make a fortune online using x product, so they get caught up in the hype and give it a go
    d) Having been stung by c), they don't want to feel like idiots so they refuse to admit it can't be done and keep going back for the next product.​
    Loop until end.
    e) If c) = affiliate marketing related, they work to suck more people onto said marketers lists, increasing the number of people stuck in the loop.​

    Or the deeper answer: we're all taught to believe that our value is demonstrated by how much money we have, and constantly bombarded by messages that we're not good enough, leading to an endless chase of money in the hope of someday feeling worthwhile and good about ourselves.
    (When we don't strike it rich, we feel even worse, so that one's also 'loop until end')

    A blog with 20,000 page views from about half that number of visitors (ie they viewed 2 pages each) can earn $790 (all from contextual advertising).

    One reason for it is that blogging does not need much skills, you just write about your interests and get eligible to be paid. But very few are able to actually earn some thing

    people want to earn. But they do not know how to do it. They see some big names. They are making big lists and blasting away emails and getting some affiliate sales. So these people want to do the same without having anything. So they land up nowhere.

    Maybe some people think blogging is their best way to get money. You dont even need to have proper meeting with the advertiser.Blogging is simple. But, the works behind it, really need passion to achieve the dream.

    There are million of bloggers, but how much can earn?
    Perhaps less than 1%.
    Other guys look for it, try but can't make.

    The people who fail to make money get into it purely to earn money after reading a post on John Chow's site or Pro Blogger's site.
