When some people hear the word "blogging", the first things that come to their minds are "celebrity gossip" and "adsense". And that alone explains why most Nigerian newbie blogger never go far.

Succeeding as a blogger, especially these days, is all about creativity. Gone are the days when blogging for passion would cut it. These days, get ready to blog about what people are actively searching the web for, not necessarily your passion. And you must be ready to look beyond Adsense.

For example, one of my Amazon niche sites earns about $600 monthly. The same site generates just 150-200, visits per day. If I were to rely on Adsense with such meager traffic, I won't earn $100 in one year! Ironically, I recently sold another site of mine that was earning around $120 per month through Adsense. Could you believe this site generates about 2000 daily unique visits? That's 1/5 of what I earn with an affiliate site that attracts less than 10% of the traffic. So, it's not all about Adsense. Adsense is a traffic volume game, and making headway with it takes a lot of time. Of course, it's much easier to reach 100 daily visits than it is to reach 1000 daily visits. And remember, 100 daily visits is enough to fetch you decent profit from Amazon affiliate marketing or any other reputable foreign affiliate program.

I agree with the OP that it's better to have a good job when starting a blog. And that's because blogging doesn't bring overnight returns. Sometimes, it could take up to one year or longer to start fetching decent monthly income. And of you're expecting quick returns from blogging, you'll get frustrated.

Finally, the argument that people should avoid blogging because it's saturated is the dumbest I've heard in recent times. Don't you know that most blogs out there end up being abandoned? Don't you know that more than 70 percent of blogs on the web are actually not fetching their owners anything? So, there's not as much competition as you think. I still started 2 fresh blogs six months ago, and both have started gaining traction, each already generating hundreds of visits daily. And they're even both targeted at Nigerians. So, no matter what, there will always be room for new players who have the sense creativity to stand out and can play their cards right.

please, that your amazon niche site, if you are not using Adsense on it, what ad network are you using ? or is it only through affiliate you earn on it?

what do you know about music?

Oga, both Fela and Majek are legends and they have message for their generation which is still relevant to us till today. Musicians carry crowd with them, and it is good that they are used more for societal sanity. No be make someone dey sing skiborobo skibo, awon omo tika bodi, one corner, and earning millions even with nonsense.

MaziOmenuko:
What exactly were they smiling about? It seems they queue under the AC at the island because theres nothing to smile about inside a distressful queue outside a filling station.

This was the same VP inspecting apapa gridlock via a jet and weeks later, we kept suffering the same gridlock. This politics of lip service and eye service need to stop.

Exactly the comment I have been waiting to read. Nigerians too mumu. Instead of them to vent their anger and displeasure on the VP, and talk on their frustration, we will be smiling like teenagers wey dem dey toast. As if politicians are gods. That place should be a hot floor for serious questions and answers and making him know they will fail come 2019, we go dey smile like mumu as if they are not the one responsible and at the helm of affairs to guide the nation. Arrant nonsense.
