On the other hand, if children's toys and tech stuff is a real passion, I can see the blogger making a decent sum because they associate with people who share those passions.<br /><br />You always leave great responses to my posts.

I think of the tech blogs, but even children's toys or landscape design or so many other possibilities. I'm fairly convinced we're moving toward self-employment becoming much more common with "ad space" being only one of many income streams. "Monetizing yourself" is fast becoming the most viable option. Blogs, Video communities, mobile technology...it's what I expect my boys to do to create their lifestyle in the future along with contributing to other individuals and/or aggregate projects. Going "Freelance" will be a new normal. ;)BlueTroothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14977508981699102582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3563456583012555283.post-61809914253189494562011-07-24T16:50:07.896-07:002011-07-24T16:50:07.896-07:00Before I forget.

However, if I had to pay for the space, I would have folded a long time ago.<br /><br />Now, about fishing.... Just because you can't go fishing does not mean you don't have knowledge and experience to share. Niches that cater to outdoor activities tend to have very loyal follower. You could do a series that inform the novice and guides them towards experience. Your niche is a good one and you might be able to generate both interest and income.<br /><br />Let me know if you decide to do it and it works well for you.<br /><br />PEACEAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10748499370910869188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3563456583012555283.post-13601120144950765102011-07-24T16:33:02.078-07:002011-07-24T16:33:02.078-07:00The whole idea of writing a blog, for me was to tr...The whole idea of writing a blog, for me was to try to make a few bucks. I'm not sure if that will happen, because : I have yet to get more than one or two readers.<br />however most of all i just love to write, whether I'm any good at it or not. I'm passionate about politics, so I can't think of any thing else I would care to write about,other than fishing, wich is my first love.<br />Since I havn't been able to go fishing in 13 yrs. I'm screwed on that point. Not to mention that I'm 750 miles from my ususal fishing spots..............TTroutmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03284791933815089952noreply@blogger.com
