These days, blogging services like Google Blogger and WordPress are touting their simplicity and ease of use. They say you can create a blog in 3 steps and 5 minutes. If it’s that fast and simple, anyone can be a blogger, right? Well, no. Words like these are very misleading. It probably does not occur to many people that maintaining a blog is much more complicated and time consuming than the creation process. I know it didn’t occur to me.

Being a blogger is a big commitment, and you need to know what you’re getting yourself into before you jump on the bandwagon. That is why in this article I am going to give you 3 reasons why should not be a blogger

1. You are undecided

Determination is success. When you really want something, you’ll probably put in a lot of effort and take all the time you need to get it—if you’re a determined person, that is. Blogging is more than just coming up with new ideas and turning those ideas into writing. It’s all about promoting your content, making connections, and being a part of the community. A blog usually doesn’t become popular on its own, so promoting your blog to increase your traffic, subscribers, and comments will be an ongoing project and take up a large portion of your blogging time. You also have to take risks and be able to offer something that no one on the planet except you can offer. It takes a lot of work, brainstorming, and time, and if you’re not determined to get to the top, you’ll never get there.

2. You can’t post regularly

You may be a busy person, but if you can’t fit your blog into your schedule, you shouldn’t have a blog at all. Blogs should be updated several times a week, and you should set aside time to brainstorm new post ideas, write, and promote blogs. Not posting often enough will negatively affect your traffic.

3. You cannot offer valuable content

Every blog needs valuable and unique content to keep the reader interested and hopefully keep them coming back for more. This means that there is no copied content. It also means you need to be able to write the kind of posts your reader won’t find anywhere else. This is tough in an area with high competition, but unless you make your content stand out, your blog will just get buried among millions of others.

Conclution

Many people who already call themselves bloggers don’t realize the amount of effort it takes to be successful. Of course, every blogger has their own idea of ​​success, but most set goals for high traffic and getting more comments on their content. If you’re determined that your blog can succeed, if you’re willing to put in the time to create compelling content, and perhaps most importantly, if you enjoy it like you would any other hobby, you’re a great blogger bound to succeed.
