This one of the ground breaking posts I have ever made on this blog. Ground breaking because I had been working on this project for over 10 months now. Ground breaking because I have not seen anyone on the internet talk about this even though most of the marketers are trying this in bits & pieces.

If you have known me for sometime you know how deep I’m into blogging. Over the years I have tried all kinds of models, platforms and technologies in the blogging realm. I have conducted several seminars, workshops on Blogging. Moreover I’m just wrapping up a book that I have written on blogging which will be available on Amazon shortly.

Coming back to the subject of Blogging…

..No matter which way you look at it, blogging is a difficult business. Thanks to all the technological advancements, blogs have now become true sales collateral of marketers, provisioning platforms of creators and lead generation machines of business owners. Of-course the usages are many.

Despite of all this blogging is a difficult business when you measure your success with direct money you generate from it. For example most of the money I generate from this blog is from the initial goodwill and subsequent consulting or speaking engagements.

Because of the difficulties of traditional blogging, I explored Niche blogging a while ago. While the opportunity was huge soon I found myself spending countless hours in updating plug-ins, changing themes, coding affiliate offers etc & etc. While money was there, what is the point of making that kind of money when you don’t have time or energy to relish it.

About 10 months ago I decide on experimenting with what I now call “R-Blogging”

What is R-Blogging?

The letter “R” doesn’t stand for “Rated”, instead it means “Reverse”. Why Reverse? Well in this mode of blogging you will do everything in the opposite.

Imagine blogging and yet not blogging. Imagine creating content and yet not creating content. Imagine calling yourself a blogger and yet you are not a blogger but a marketer. Most bloggers don’t make enough money but all R-Bloggers I know make money a ton of money.

I’ll share the exact operational model of a R-Blog in a later post. But all I can tell you know is, its a revolutionary way of delivering your content to your readers. Pretty powerful.

I’ll share an example of a “R-Blog” in an upcoming post. I’m still experimenting with it and will have the results soon.

To Your Success!

    Hey Gaj,

    You bet, but both those aspects come at a cost :)- Not a lot but a small.

    Cheers!

    Hey Saripalli,

    I can really relate to this post because, I see my growing my blog(it’s in the infant stage)as fun…..it never feels like work, and I’ve always envisioned it as you said “marker friendly”.

    I’m a giver by nature, and sometimes a bit of a perfectionist…so I enjoy giving away as much value as possible to anyone who needs it….and ensure it’s quality is high.

    I know this will build my following–in the future.

    Thanks

    Hey Srini,
    Susan here again. I have 11 blogs that are supposes to be more hands off and e-commerce focused. I can’t wait until I see what it is you mean by R-blogging. I don’t know if these would fit the bill but I would be willing to do some tweaking if it is all about lifestyle. That’s what I’m interested in!
