Blogging for yourself is one thing but becoming a professional blogger is another level. For the beginner, it can be daunting to face a blank page without widgets in place. I wondered when I started if I would ever create a blog that looked good enough or if I would ever write enough quality content to suit professional clients. The first year, I spent much of my time researching blog techniques, advertising, social networks and other blogs to understand theme design and writing styles. Then I realized that content needs to be focused so I discovered niche blogging. It was a very arduous and long journey which has consumed two years of my life.

My goal is to provide some guidance for new bloggers who wish to earn a living as a professional. I'll tap into the experiences from my journey and share them with you here. You see, I also learned that networking means helping one another because a co-operative industry affords opportunity to every one far better than a competitive one.

If you have questions that I have not addressed on this blog, please leave a comment or send an email to themidnightwriter1@gmail.com. I'll do my best to cover every one of them. And you'll be helping me with your questions by providing me with diverse content ideas for this site.
