Well, I enjpyed this post actually, and think you are being too hard on yourself.

Maybe try wordpress, buffing up the look some - as this post shows you have a real talent for a witty and engaging writing style...and I really mean that :-)

Some people not take this 'theme stuff' very serious but actually it is one of the most important factor for your unique visitor

I don't believe that you have to be a great writer in order to gain readers. You've obviously proved that with your prior hits. So I wouldn't worry too much about readers. It wouldn't hurt to have a design that stands out and great content, however.

You are doing better then me. I have a blog in the same niche and one in a different niche, Politics. I think your blog layout is better then mine too. I am fairly new to blogging, but am starting to move in the right direction. Keep your head up because my blog sucks a little worse

No No No and Nopes. You are in wrong track. You have very nice blogs and only drawback of your blog is that you are not promoting your blog at all. Did you try to get your blog information ever before in social networking website, articles website. Try these ones, update your blog in social networking website always, you will definitly get nice traffic and relevant also. Every comment, you post on blog should be updated in social marketing site. I m sure this would help your blogs.

Well, I think it's funny how you mentioned most of your traffic comes from Entrecard and how I wrote an article titled "If you didn't have Entrecard, your blog would have no visitors."

But I think you're beating yourself up more than you should. I mean, it's a lot of hard work but if I can make almost $1,000 in the month of Feb without a pagerank then you should definitely be able to step up even more!

2008-03-04T21:23:00.000Z

I think posts like this where you share part of yourself is what sells blogs. It's not always the professionally written 'perfect' posts that attract readers, sometimes even the worst writers, when they share of themselves, can attract a following.

I'm saying this because I have a problem sharing highly personal things too. lol! and mostly I blog about 'STUFF'

You actually have a pretty good blog here.

It's my first visit here from Mikes Money Making Mission and I must say your site is not as bad as you think. Maybe if you wrote more often about different ways to make money online it might continue to pull in the traffic?

Martin,

I never understood why you stop blogging in the first place. Your blog was gaining momentum. I remember your traffic was much higher than mine and we started about the same time (almost a week apart). You blogged about making money online and I blogged about my experiences related to UNIX - when I was getting 5-20 visitors per day, you were getting hundreds. Now I'm receiving 700-800 visitors per day. And yes, I almost quit several times due to sheer frustration. Btw, your writing skills aren't that bad...I've seen much worse. Lighten up and keep blogging. I would research the leaders in your niche.

I can suggest 3 things.

1. Host your blog with your own domain and server using Wordpress.

2. Get some professional help making your blog look clean and easy to use.

3.As stated in earlier comments, making income online is a very broad topic in todays Web 2.0. Use this to your advantage. Actively read the news and sites like yours to see what to do and what not to do.

2008-02-03T04:08:00.000Z

Hey man,

Take it easy! Ok, I had to say it. You have more readers than me so buck up! There's no room for self-pity in blogging. :)

Maybe spice things up a little. Find out more about your readers and what they like.

It's funny. On my blog, I think some posts will fill up with comments and no one will say a word. Then the ones i think won't be popular have tons of comments.

What does work is when you're real with us. Tell us what's going on in your adventure to make money online.

I think you're doing fine. Just keep writing and doing what you enjoy. If the spark has gone, then maybe you should move on to something else that's fascinating. Just don't give up because you're at a difficult juncture.

Hope that helped. Be well...

2008-02-02T23:00:00.000Z

While your Blog doesn't jump out at me it doesn't look bad either. You have 61 readers so you are doing something right. There's a million Blogs/Sites out there about how to make money online so you have to have really good content and be on top of things. I would say lighten up on yourself, keep writing, spend some time on other sites that are more popular and perhaps you will be inspired.

2008-02-02T11:25:00.000Z

I'm sorry you feel that way and I'm also sorry that I must agree with you on the fact that your blog doesn't have something that would pull it out from the crowd. But you must admit that the niche you chose is somewhat full at the moment, so if you are not the first that posts about something related, there's a great chance that your visitors would have read about it somewhere else. That would mean that they won't stop to read about it again.

I'm not saying you should quit your blog, that is a decision that you will have to take for yourself. Maybe one viable solution would be to change your niche.

What else can I say? Whatever your choice will be, I wish you the best of luck.
