Default Re: Arnold Kim - Professional Blogger

lol..life the problem with these bloggers is they talk about everything except the way they really make their money. N just like you have a few sites, they have plenty of them that work well, look at problogger, his ehow site gets crazy amount of hits from people who write absolutely crappy stuff on things like how to attach the hose to your faucet just with the hope that they will make some pennies out of it. After reading up extensively on these sites I've realized life, that they talk about blogging but thats not where the money for them comes from anymore.They use every trick in the book like linkbacks, SEO, directory submissions and contests to attract the crowd. Infact Google dropped Johnchow from their PR because he was tweaking things too much. N despite whtever they may tell you, content isn't the king anymore, most of them have guest writers writing on their sites and they charge them as well. Johnchow charges you $500 to review your blog or site, and problogger has an elance kind of stuff that gets him a decent amount of money. You'd be amazed at the number of sites they juggle with. Its pure business now blogging is now only a part of it not the whole thing anymore.
