Hi,
Most of us have a blog, then, a part of us update it frequently, then, a part of them are really read by people and then, the smallest slice is of Professional bloggers, who not only update their blogs frequently, not only they are read by loads of people, they earn about 100$ from it everyday!
So, are you a professional blogger, or do you wanna become one?

Hi, no I am not a professional blogger but I do have a blog and update it when I need to. My blog is on new movies I have seen and give my opinion. I do not know if anyone follows it but I know of one that gets updates every time I post. I do not make any money on my blog but I still enjoy writing my opinion on my blog.

It's incredibly difficult to become a professional blogger unless you're (a) massively passionate about something (i.e. pretty much obsessed) or (b) very lucky or (c) already famous. I blog in two places at the moment and get a total of about 10 hits a week, I think... I used to blog several years ago and had regular visitors, but it was never very popular.
It'd be nice to earn something from blogging, but from experience I know it can be quick ridiculously difficult to come up with new and interesting posts all the time. Many of the most popular blogs are shared: they have a lot of different writers who all post.

Do not be fooled when you see those $100-$1000 per day in those blog websites, it is not normal! Perhaps these guys can make that much, but you know when they started blogging and how long they have accumulated their readers.
I tried to blog a couple of years ago, but it is not sustainable to be a professional blogger, because you do not have that much time or passion. One way to keep you writing in your blog is to monetarize it, to dream you could make that many money one day. But reality is real, we just start late, there are so many blogs out there and people usually just go to their favorite one,i.e., those famous ones. And then you don't have traffic at all and get depressed.
Anyway, the above is just my experience, hopefully you can avoid my mistakes and get rich on blogging. Happy mylotting!
