- The lack of a proper planning
Bloggers will find soon enough how inconspicuous their efforts can be, if they are launching their own blogs without much of a proper planning ahead of time. In fact, a proper planning before starting a blog seems to be one of the main mistakes for a blog failure among various reasons. - The lack of good quality contents
Another reason is the lack of quality contents, or the complete lack of any (bad or good they could have been). Attracting a readership is very hard without valid contents and running out of them it is sure death for blogs. Also selecting a topic (a single topic is better) beforehand, that alone could really help in focusing into which path a blog should move. - The lack of motivations and therefore loss of interest.
In the beginning we probably started very enthusiastically our own first blog, and our enthusiasm could have lasted anywhere from a couple of weeks to two/three months, at the most not more than six months. What happens later is, a decreasing in our appetite to blog. Most of us discover how hard can be blogging for a long time, and without a prompt remuneration (it can be monetary of even simple appreciations) to our efforts, we are more prone to easily quit. A not responsive audience to our postings could very well deplete sooner or later, the necessary attention to help ourselves focused on the main task of writing and thus keeping our blogs alive. Little earnings also could well translate in loss of interest. - Little monetary profits
Money, could very well be another motivation for people to stop blogging. But in reality to get back some pay off from our hard work while blogging, takes a lot of dedication and even a lot more of our time involvement! And of course, a lot of people are not willing to waste all of their times in something realistically considered too unreliable as a source of their main incomes. - High expectations
People usually make blogs thinking to be ranked among the very best, sooner than they thought! Although it’s not bad to have such high expectations in the very beginning of blogging, for certainty, their initial enthusiasm could well had met some initial failures resulting in disappointments and dissatisfactions. Especially, when a partial or total lack of traffic to their blogs will deeply frustrate their initial expectations. However, the important thing is not to get frustrated by the very first blog's failures, like in the case of an absolute absence of devoted affectionados (followers, fanatics) of any blog, but then, try to keep the right mental attitude to overcome any potential aversion during this yours (and mine) long traveling to become a successfully elite blogger!
In conclussion, a couple of footnotes for some potential ideas on future blog's posts:
Sometimes, I start to think about all the time I have devoted to this blog which I could have well spent in some other more remunerative activities .
and...
How and when we get to be professional bloggers, and if someone (probably sitting in the Olympus's Mount among the other Gods) will tag us with some sort of honorific label with written on that we've been elevated to be among those glorified elites of the blogosphere ?
