Someone recently sent me an email asking me if I make a lot of money. Well although I am a compensated blogger (which is not my primary profession since I do a mix of management consulting and hired gun start-up work as my day job), I am surely not making tons of money from contracted blogging. The Blog Herald sheds some good light on market rates for compensated bloggers.
Blogging is primarily a networking and learning experience for me. But there’s another aspect. I have had a fortunate life both personally and professionally, I view blogging as a way for me to give something back to the world in small doses. I keep looking for ways to build even bigger social marks on the world. Not quite where I want to be in helping the social good, but part of the fun is in the hunt.
