I think you are correct on the time line to build a decent blog income. I think that could also be applied to most businesses as well. There is no such thing as getting rich quick.

I also feel that a lot of bloggers seem to be just following the crowd. If you are not doing anything particularly interesting or valuable, then it is likely that you will never make a decent income online. Quality levels are constantly rising, you can’t be the 100th me-too blog in a popular niche, and still expect ongoing success.

I am still looking for the way I can stand out.

Another great interview!
A friend of mine just spent 5 months in Asia, and he too says Bocoray is one of the most beautiful places you can visit

It seems to me that with most blogs you need 2-4 years to have it be really successful and earning a good income?

cheers

I agree! The greatest thing about blogging is connecting with like minded people. There is no other way to connect and build relationships like this. We live in fantastic times.

I’ll be interested to see how the monetization of Anil’s blog goes, since this seems to be the silver bullet of passive income generation for people who don’t mind writing from time to time. Any real life stats and numbers would be greatly appreciated, too, since all to often people write in vague generalities, which tend to leave the reader wondering rather than enlightened.

Good luck on the eBook launch, Anil!

That interview was very motivating. Makes me want to visit Istanbul!

My goal is also to “take on projects that really interest me.” Many people seem to want to stop working, but I would go crazy if I wasn’t always working on new projects and business ideas.
