What Is the Real Appeal of Making an Auto-Blog?
Simply put, autoblogging refers to an internet marketing strategy that revolves around setting up a blog that gets automatically updated on its own, without you having to do any work.
The appeal of such a blog should be evident to pretty much anyone with even a passing knowledge of making money online.
First, an automatic blog takes less than 2 hours to set up, and take little to no technical skills.
This is the main appeal of an automatic blog.
Most people understand that you can make a lot of money from a blog, and most people have thought about creating a well-monetized blog at one time or another to make some money on the side.
But most people also give up when they realize just how much work it takes to maintain and regularly update a high quality niche blog.
It takes a lot of work to go out and figure out topics to write about, and to research those topics, and to write and post updates on those topics.
Even if you only update your blog a couple times a week, the time commitment really adds up- especially if you are looking to run multiple blogs.
With an automatic blog, the only time commitment you have is the initial time to set up the blog.
That's it.
Once the blog is set up, you never need to check it out again for the life of the blog.
Of course, there are people who like to stay on top of their businesses and might want to check in on the blog once or twice a week to make sure that it is updating properly and running smoothly, but 99% of the time you can have a totally successful automatic blog that never needs to be checked or have any maintenance performed on it.
The main benefit of creating an autoblog is the fact that it is a truly passive source of income.
Lots of people like to say that traditional blogs are passive sources of income due to the fact that they can generate money for you during times when you aren't directly working on them.
This is technically true, but is a traditional blog really a passive form of income when you spend 10 or 20 or more hours a week working on it? Doesn't it make a lot more sense to consider a blog that you truly spend no time on a much more accurately labeled form of passive income? Autoblogs provide true automated, passive streams of income.
The best part of an autoblog when it comes to generating income is the fact that you can pretty much have as many of them as you want.
While the number of traditional blogs you have is deeply defined by the amount of topics you can write about and the amount of time you have to write and post updates, the number of autoblogs you can have is entirely dependent upon how many you want to set up.
Once they are running you can forget about them and move on to the next one, only thinking about the blog when you count the money it brings in.
