You can Screw up Blogging and Still be Successful

Annabel Candy shares how she wanted to grow her blog readership to 1,000 in just 12 months. In her recent post she lays out four mistakes she made and how she still met with success.

My take on it is that she had perseverance. Many start a blog for their business or to spread their ideas but give up at the three month point. The majority have stopped publishing by six months.

If you don't want to be successful then don't start. If you don't plan to power through the dip then stay at home.

If you have what it takes then you'll stick with it for nine to eighteen months and meet the payback. Your business will increase, others will be spreading your ideas and success will only lead to more success. That's called a "virtuous cycle."

You won't get there if you stop after 16 posts.

What are your tips for sticking with it?
