Today’s post will be different from the normal blogger post of how to run your blog. I felt that it’s important to give you some of the precautions in blogging.

This is because I see people repeatedly get trapped into unrealistic expectations and fall victim of the fake bloggers.

Be Aware of Fake Blogger Post Online!

As a new blogger, below are some things you need to be aware of. Which will save you a lot in your blogging journey.

a) Blogger post promising you success

I am sure you might have come across blogs that tell you by starting a blog, you can earn thousands of money every month. The fact is you can make even more money in blogging but hear me out on this.

There are many ways of monetizing a blog and it all depends on your creativity in incorporating the various monetization methods in your blog. Here are 5 ways how bloggers make money.

Come to think of it, the person promising you a fortune in blogging is not giving you any value on their blog most of the times. By value I mean teaching you how to start the blog or the truth on what it takes to be able to make money.

Instead, they tell you to subscribe to an expensive course. Their goal is to get you to purchase the course and that’s how they make money.

So when you have purchased the course, what makes you think they will do a follow up on actually teaching you blogging and seeing that you succeed at the promise they made to you?

If I am selling juice at a shop, the moment you purchase it I do not care whether you drink it, pour it to the ground or wash clothes with it. I am giving such examples hoping you grasp the point in what I mean.

If you really are interested in learning how to blog, there is so much free information on the internet which you can learn from.

I’d advise you stay away from such people who promise you a fortune from blogging. Some go to the extent of telling you the exact figures you will be making.

I am not against courses or anything but always make sure to do your due diligence before purchasing a course. The goal here is to learn and not lose money to another blogger with no value in return.

I believe this is the reason people go online purchasing the useless courses. So when they do not achieve the easy success promised they get frustrated and quit blogging.

b) Blogger post promising fast results

Apart from people promising you large amounts of monthly revenue, there are others who will tell you that you will be able to make money quickly in a few months. Perhaps within six months is a popular one.

Well being honest with you, it is only possible for an experienced blogger to start a blog and make it profitable in such a short period of time. This is because they are not starting from a beginner’s point of view where everything is totally new and confusing.

I understand some could be blinded by their success. Making them forget the hardships they went through to make it a success. So it becomes easy to advice everyone that it is possible. Major facts about blogging you should know.

Here is an example for you, if you have been training and got good at running. If you won a championship, would you advice everyone to go run and promise them that they will win their first marathon? Of course not.

It is much better to educate them on the training routines and discipline. Let them decide if they are able to put in the work which will set them at a good position to win.

If you are serious about blogging, it is far much better to focus on the basics like knowing what is a blog, what is the purpose of a blog and things of that sort. It is from there you will come to see how the blog is able to make you money.

But if you decide to follow the how to make money blogging aspect of it alone, am afraid to tell you that you will most likely fall victim of scams and eventually fail terribly. In reality, it is much more than that what it seems to be.
