Why Do You Blog?

One of the most common questions which I always encounter is why do you blog? Did you ever asked yourself about what is the reason why do you prefer blogging? Do let me know why do you blog?

Read on this blog post for some of the possible reasons which might inspire you to blog. It also includes some of the reasons which I feel enforcing me to blog and some of the reasons are being taken by discussing with some blogger friends of mine.

Why Do You Blog?

Normally it is being said that people do blog to make some money. I normally don’t consider it as the best approach. It is not at all true that people do blog to earn something only. Many bloggers are out here that do blogging for some other purposes.

Here are some of the possible reasons why do people blog, please do share your opinion about them in the form of comments below:

Express Opinion

One of the common reasons why people do blogging is to express their opinion. If you have some opinion about any latest event, news, etc. and you cannot express your opinion anywhere, then blogs are the best mean to do so. You can share the same so that others can take be aware of it.

It is a very normal approach. You came through many incidents daily. There are so many things happening around us and we want to share our opinion on the same. Unfortunately we all don’t have a medium through which we can express the same and hence a blog can come handy. It can also become a place where others can also share their opinion about what we expressed and it can become interactive.

To Help Others

Just giving you an example, one blogger friends of mine was too worried as he was not getting the professional help for shifting his BlogSpot blog to the custom domain. At that moment of time, he put out his frustration in a blog and when I read it, I simply suggested him one old blog post of mine.

Fortunately the blog which I shared to V. Srinivas Rao (you can read his blog post at here: http://knoweb-india.blogspot.in/2014/11/the-story-behind-my-blogs-custom-domain.html)was on how to move a Blogspot blog to your own domain name and this was exactly the same which he was looking for and soon he has been able to resolve the issue.

Other than expressing your opinion, helping others is the main motive behind why do many people blog.

To Increase Self Confidence

If you lack self confidence, then 11 ways to gain confidence can come handy for you. But then, there is one more thing which can help you to gain confidence and it is to blog.

If you don’t have much confidence, you should start a blog soon, so that when you start blogging you will realize that your confidence is increasing day by day. Only thing which you will have to stick is to blog without worrying about what others will say about your blog.

To be very frank, the more you will blog, the more detailed posts you will post, the more confidence you will have. This will make you a better person as well.

To Promote Something

As I already said that the most common reasons for blogging is earning money, which many people think about it. Hence it is also true that many people blog to promote something so that they can get the commission or earning through it.

Undoubtedly it is also true that to promote some products or businesses; blog is one of the best medium to do so.

To Establish Yourself as an Expert

Well, ask me, 4 out of 10 of my regular visitors are those who consider me as an expert in SEO and blogging. Although to their surprise I am not an expert in any of these things. Yes it is true that I know a bit about these two fields, but I am only a small fish of these big oceans.

Although it is also true that my blogs has created this misconception about me. Those who read my blogs think that I know so many things about SEO and blogging too.

So it is also true that blogging can help you to establish yourself as an expert of any particular field. And hence many people do blog.

To Become a Writer

Those who are repeating visitors of my blog are already aware about the books which I published during this year. My first book which was a non-fictional book on guest blogging, and the second book which was an Anthology converted me into an author and the thing which made it possible is the blogging only.

My blogs gave me the confidence to become an author as well.

Once you start blogging soon you will realize that your writing abilities are enhancing and soon you can plan about publishing your own book as well.

To Build Relationships

Blogging is one of the finest medium through which you can build relationships with new people. It is a platform which gives you the opportunity to connect with people from different segments of our society.

Relationships building are the main charm which is stopping me in the blogging industry. One thing I must say about bloggers is that normally you won’t find a blogger who is selfish or has some bad behavior towards other.

To Earn Something

The more you will blog, the better scope of earning will be there in front of you. Many companies are now planning to hire bloggers for the promotion of their products and brands.

One thing is quite clear; if you are blogging regularly and your blog’s traffic is increasing then soon you will have so many earning opportunities in front of you. No doubt that blogging can also have financial benefits.
