Today I feel like moving away for a moment from technicalities, earnings, premium or business plans, traffic, SEO/SEM, ecommerce towards a bit more relaxed and social side of the blog. It is still August and a ray of sunshine resonates well with the content of this post.

It is not always about attracting people to monetize the personal blog or website
Some of us might focus on technical side of it only, but others may feel like they want to purely share their reflections, thoughts, they way they see the world with the audience. Is any of the areas better?
Good blogger is the one that is authentic
If you want to share your knowledge with others, that is great. If you can earn on it (directly by selling courses, running webinars, seminars, organizing consultations) – that is awesome. If the content is valuable, it will find its readers and your blog will have its followers with a little bit of your effort to become visible. But you need to be tactful and considerate when dealing with people, if your main goal is to attract traffic to earn, people will be able to get that vibe from your blog. But if you want to HELP people, and by the way earn something extra by using tools, that help generate income, that will pay off better.

But what if you do not feel technical, skilled enough to share any specific, niche content but you still want to have your place to express yourself? Will there be any audience? YES!
These days people look for everything via www. Starting with the aspects of having their own ecommerce (e-shop), cooking, sawing, gardening, refurbishing, singing, playing guitar etc. etc. but also psychological advice, people being in similar life situations, going through mourning, personal crisis, broken-hearted and seeking stories of others that had gone through it already and shared some ways of dealing with it that worked for them. Some of us are not strong enough to ask for help, some do not have anyone to ask (sadly), but as humans we all need to feel as being a part of something bigger, having a place where we can sooth our pain, be recognizable, place where we can feel accepted, safe. So even if you think, you have nothing valuable to share with the world, you may want to share your experiences. Considerate – is one thing. Responsible for what your content brings to the world – is another thing. Make sure your intentions are good and you do it to share with the world, not to put other people down. Help them grow. Make them feel comfortable and accepted. Give them a space to comment and contact you, should they wish to.
INSPIRE THEM AND LET THEM INSPIRE YOU

My audience is currently more of a readers than talkers 🙂 This sometimes makes me question the purpose of having this blog. The number of interactions is at low level, but not none (yay!). So I hope my blog does bring some value added to my followers. And the fact that almost every day I welcome a new follower, or someone from existing ones clicks that ‘like’ button to show me they appreciate my effort and content makes me think, that these things make a difference, bring something, are worth it. Every day it reaches out new people, that decide to stay with me and accompany me in this journey. It is a wonderful feeling, being a part of a www society 🙂
We all need that acceptance, friendly presence, a space to be ourselves, sometimes funny, sometimes sad or wick, not able to do much with our current life circumstances, but for sure we can be united and just BE there.

I would appreciate if you would like to leave me a comment below with at least your location, just so I know a bit more about you, that have decided to join my little LOOP and which countries/cities this blog reaches across the globe 🙂

So my private message to all my friendly followers is – thank you and please know, I appreciate each of you here! 🙂

Have a great day ❤
