The first day a good friend of mine introduced me to Blogging and how to make a fortune from it, the very first question I asked him was "Who is Blogging suitable for". It is obvious that out of 100% of Bloggers only 1% are making real income from their Blogs, which equally means that everybody cannot be a successful Blogger. So the question is do you want to be part of the successful Bloggers or do you want to be part of the Bloggers that only Blog for the sake of Blogging?.
Back to my short story. My good friend answered my question and gave me more insight on Blogging to success. Afterward I made few researches about the definition of a Blog, who a Blogger is, the top 100 niches and many more. I created this special post to help you understand "Who Blogging is suitable for".
I would like to start with the definition of a Blog. Because there are more than 10 million Bloggers Blogging for different reasons, it is difficult to find a perfect definition for a Blog. But I came up with the best 4 definitions that I believe defines what a Blog is all about and also reflects the values of Blogging.
Top 4 Definitions of a Blog
