There are many of reasons that makes me start blogging.

When I decided in 2016. I was going to flip my life on its head and do exactly the opposite of everything I’ve ever done:-

• •To help people with their problems.
• •To go to conferences and meet many people.
• •To talk to people (you don’t do that much as a programmer).

my entire outlook on life changed. I get to help people with their finances. I’m making a difference.

2. To make new friends

I have made so many new friends I wouldn’t have met otherwise, you are one of them😊. It’s amazing! Relationships might start out as comments on a post, replying to a Tweet, or an email.

My virtual friends end up becoming people I hang out with who live close by, or people I see at conferences. I have a whole bunch of new people I’ve met that I consider friends.

Often you might feel alone –

Am I the only person out there that likes free stuffs like free browsing cheat?

Blogging is a great way to meet like-minded people that share your hobbies, beliefs, values, and goals.

5. What do you think about blogging in Nigeria?
Unfortunately, this isn't always effective when it comes to blogging.

Most would-be professional Nigerian bloggers fail because they are using the same business model as the highly successful bloggers when their reality is entirely different.

For the average Nigerian blogger, though, the reality is different; the average Nigerian blogger finds it difficult to publish 3 articles to their blog on a weekly basis, and the average blogger can hardly get a thousand views to their blog on a monthly basis.

In fact, many have been sold the dream of making money blogging while they sleep; I've interacted with several Nigerians who have been told that they just have to set up a blog, post on it and they'll be making money each and every time some visits their blog. That's not just untrue, it is simply impossible. 

Thank-you

Don't blog just because you want to earn money from it, blog for your passion and make it your habit.

Don't blog just because you want to earn money from it, blog for your passion and make it your habit.

In blogging field your personality,country, name, height, weight and any other bull**** things don't matter only your WRITING SKILLS do matter like how you write something and how you explain something to your visitors.

Here I remember a quote "In this world writing is the only most destructive weapon than any other weapons".

When you are blogging, concentrate on only one topic/niche do not write or post whatever comes in your mind but if you are running a multi-author blog then it is not an issue but always remember that your blog name must be related with your blog content.

Finally enjoy whatever you do that's it.

Hope this was not too long and thank you for your time.
