One Common Thing…
The funny thing about the emails I get from those people who have been blogging for years without results is that they have one common thing.The secret to blogging success lies in understanding that one common thing and attacking it with all you have.
I know you’re curious to know that one common thing, and not to worry, I will be revealing it to you below.
The common thing with the emails I get from these bloggers is that their email goes in the line of:
Hi Onibalusi,
I have been blogging for X years now but I haven’t even made up to $10 in my total year blogging and I found it really amazing to see you getting the results you get so fast.
I have 8 blogs but none of them is making me any money. What is it that you’re doing that is giving you results fast? How can I start making quick cash online?
I’ll really appreciate your reply.

Did you notice anything strange in the above email? I bet you do! And in case you don’t it is the high number of blogs. Every one of those who tell me they have been blogging for years always have at least 4 blogs and that is exactly why they are not getting results.
I know you might be saying I only have two blogs and I’m not getting results but my question is, why 2?
FOCUS
Believe it or not. Love it or not. This is the key to blogging success.
You can hardly succeed as a blogger if you have 10 blogs fighting for your attention, especially if none of them is making you money and you have zero resource to spend on them.
Try to focus on only one blog. The key to success is not in trying to be everything at every time. Bill gates is known for specializing in Computer software, in fact, he is even more specific, he only specializes in Microsoft software. Steve Jobs is known for specializing in gadgets and to really succeed you have to be known for specializing in only one thing.
Take a look at all those 7 blogs you have, look for the one that matters to you most and delete the remaining 6, YOU DON’T NEED THEM. You only need one blog that matters to you most, that you’re most passionate about.
The same thing applies to reading as a blogger. Even though there are a gazillion ways to get traffic to your blog, you only need one to succeed as a blogger – for me that one traffic technique is guest blogging and I will advise that you find what yours is, focus all your efforts is and you will begin to get results in no time.
I know there are thousands of ways to make money online but you should only focus on one at a time. Don’t implement techniques A,B,C at a time and then complaining about not getting results. FOCUS on one thing at a time, that is the only way to really get results as a blogger
