From my research in the recent years, I found out that both categories have been trending in Nigeria.

But i think the online shopping industry pays better than blogging.

This is my own view and I would be pleased to hear yours too... In addition u can tell us which category of website pays more if you feel it isn't among the two mentioned above..

How can you compare an ecommerce site to a blog.
Like comparing a Mercedes and a Kia.

Its easy to start a blog and difficult to start an ecommerce site.

Running an e-commerce site is far more stressful:handling deliveries, uploading pics and details of new products, offering customer support, spending millions on marketing, etc.

Running a blog majorly requires constant production of content.

hmmm dats rite but it becomes easy if you subscribe to an delivery service and have your team tho.

marketing? yea its quite expensive but i heard the return profits are high..

you can't compare it since they are two different stuffs.ecommerce is solely for business.a blog could be some ones dairy where he or share shares what they love or do it to make cash.could be for passion, fun or for sharing info to make money.no one would create an ecommerce site for fun.its solely for business
