I started this blog with a very simple intention of sharing my experience, knowledge and tips with all my beloved family members and dear friends who are interested in making money online by blogging but don’t know where and how to kick off. I was very aggressive and active in updating this blog initially, hoping that they would come visit, read and learn. However, it’s rather disappointing that most of them just visited once or twice ever since the blog was established in June 2007. I had to email/message and beg them to ask me any questions/difficulties they might have, but nobody asked me a single question, nobody seemed to appreciate that. I’m wondering why this is happening. Is this the procrastination that’s hindering them? Or was I being too aggressive in pushing them to blog? I don’t know. Hey, I’m not selling you anything, am I?

However, when I introduced this to another two friends of mine, JY and Jeepang, during our recent casual conversation, both of them created their blogs the very next day. If you look at their blogs, you can see that both of them put in a lot of effort in building the blogs. Take JY for an instance, on the day he created his blog, Phone Lover, he spent hours on msn with me asking questions, tricks and tips about blogging. He took the initiative to explore the Blogger platform, compare with other blogs, learn from other blogs and most importantly he asked questions. JY is a young teenager who is a very talented fast learner, he is willing to learn and experience. He managed to catch up what I taught and put it into practice. JY updates his blog regularly (as advised by me), and he’s targeting to write at least a post a day. He’s already having 20 posts in just 23 days, at the time of this writing. Man, he is going to be a very successful blogger in the near future, that’s one thing for sure.
