Is it as easy now as it was then ....

I am a loyal follower of many blogs, especially those who have turned their blogs and their passion into a career. I also like reading their advice on blogging which they have learned over the numerous years of blogging. But something which I often wonder is if one of the blogging guru’s, so to speak, would be able to make it now if they were a complete newbie, because it seems much harder now?
You see most of these guys already had a presence on the net before blogging became popular and so were ahead of the game, especially when it came to capitalizing on a popular niche. Because of this, they have huge followings and as such if they launch a new site or product they already have a market to capitalize on. But now with nearly every niche over crowded and thousands of blogs started every week could they still get to the top of the game if they were an unknown.
What do you think, could they do it or is it now nearly impossible for a newbie blogger to make it big?

Well i think it is not impossible, but it sure more harder. Most Newbie Blogger usually only write for a month before they feel bored, some even copy paste article from other blog. And a few that are survive is the one who ( i think ) have the chance to make it big. But still, their job is harder than the senior blogger that already have many follower. Well, that is what i think anyway.

hi! Nowadays there are many people who have their own blogs and try to make themvery popular, upload videos on youtube with their blogs and the addresses, but as you say, the blog gurus may not be able to become so famous if they must do the same things nowadays, because there is information everywhere and maybe every 4th person, who has an internet connection has its own blog. The trends are now the own websites, because many people are try to have their own website with some free domain, but also don't want some mysitename.*.com domains ):
