Harsh regularly updates his monthly earnings and expenditure on his website. The majority of his earnings are from Affiliate marketing.
When to leave your job and pursue blogging?
According to Harsh, nowadays, it is not a good idea to leave your job and start blogging. It’s uncertain whether you will succeed or not. If you grow, you will learn how good blogging is, and thank me. My suggestion is to start it sideways with your job – you can devote 2-3 hours per day along with your work. Whenever you start generating the same income from blogging in 2-3 hours as your job, then it is the right time to leave your job and do blogging seriously. Moreover, the salary isn’t the only factor; you will save traveling time as well. Further, you always have the scope to expand.
Lessons Drawn: You have to be persistent in blogging, and affiliate marketing can drive lots of revenues in blogging. If you want to accomplish your dream, be a learner!The world is changing rapidly, so it’s crucial to keep experimenting and learning new things.

Be a food blogger like – Payal Banka.

If you are looking to gain or lose weight, you can check out her website (Dietburrp.com). What you get is a proper diet plan and guidance to achieve your goals.

Lessons Drawn: people are more connected and loyal to the voice behind the blogs, rather than Wiki and other generic platforms. To get genuine traffic, you just have to start posting quality content that can benefit the users.
“haters gonna hate.”
There will always be some negative comments, but you have to learn and improve from them instead of losing your confidence and losing hopes.
Rediscover fashion like – Aashna shroff

Fashion bloggers have taken beauty and fashion to a whole new level with their creative approach. With the rise in the growth of social media, fashion bloggers use Influencer marketing as the main source of their income.
Fashion is a complex language of glamour and modesty. Indeed, if you have a good fashion sense, you can always carry clothing effortlessly and look elegant, classy, and more glamorous. If you wear trending outfits, then it reflects that you are bold enough to challenge trends.
You can learn about trending fashion ideas by reading the blog by Aashna. She is the founder of The Snob Journal, and she has an Instagram follower base of 600000.
She started her blog in 2009, following which she became a YouTuber. She posts her lookbooks and makeup tutorials. On her blog, The Snob Journal, you will find her talking about her journey of selecting an outfit for a particular occasion and events.
Lessons drawn: “Blogging is not all about writing.” You don’t have to be a professional writer to be a successful blogger.
5 Lessons you can learn from famous bloggers:
- It takes time and patience: All of these famous bloggers have not gained success in a couple of weeks. It not only takes time to create a blog but also takes time to let it grow.
- You have to work hard towards your goal: Writing content and sitting back to let it grow by itself will not work. You need to promote your content as well. Do guest blogging, reply to most of the comments, as opportunities are created, they don’t happen on their own.
- Focus on your niche: once you pick up your niche, you should stick to it. Otherwise, while trying to do everything, you might end up getting nothing.
- Sometimes it is good to take a break: At times, if you think you are not improving, it is suggested to take a break from writing. You can allow some guest posts at that time if you don’t want to break your consistency.
- Don’t hesitate to experiment: It might sound like a cliche, but you will not know how good you can be without giving it a try. If you think something is not working for you, try another approach and figure out what you can do to make it better.
- Never take anything for granted: you need to notice where you have started and how far you have come. Moreover, you should celebrate each success, whether big or small.
Being a reader of my blog, your opinions and thoughts are of the utmost value to me. Never hesitate to comment and ask questions regarding my blogs. I am always there to help you out in any way possible. Happy Blogging.
