Hello Everyone,
Now I claim myself as a blogger, but I never thought that I would be a blogger before 2008. Today I’ve decided to share my story of becoming a blogger.
There are many people live around me, even don’t know what is blogging? There are thousands of people who don’t believe that it is possible to make money blogging!
I’m a college dropout boy. After passing H.S.C. (Higher Secondary Certificate), I’ve left traditional education. But still I’m learning.
A few weeks ago, I’ve meet with one of my college friend named Rakib (A student of Bachelor of Pharmacy) , I’ve told him about blogging and showed some proof of my online earning.
Then he become very curious about it and ask me more info. Then I shared some tips with him about Blogging, Blog promotion, Search engine optimization, Affiliate marketing and so on.
Then he become astonished (because we live together since February 2008) and asked me: How I’ve learned this huge things (My knowledge about Blogging is huge to him, because he know nothing) in the short period of time (2 years)?
Then I replied him, “Internet is my school, Google is my teacher and Blogs and websites are my Book’s.”
After hearing my reply, he became more curious and ask for the explanation. Then I explained it like bellow:
“When I need any information, then I go to my school (access to the internet), Then ask my teacher (Google) about it and it suggests me with a list of book’s (blogs and websites) then I read those book’s until I get the exact result I’m searching for. Thus I have learned these knowledge.”
Hearing this he laughed loudly, you may also lough now……………. LOL……
Yeah! I’ve learned all the things about blogging from internet and till now I’m learning!
When surfing the internet, if I found any blog interesting, I subscribe to their RSS FEED and Read their posts regularly. It helped me more!
Today I want to share about those blogs that helped me to be a better blogger and I think it will be worth sharing.

He inspired me very much, when I became banned from adsense for the first time! I was going to stop blogging. Then I had become inspired by reading this article of JohnChow.com: Blog Income Report October 2008
He showed, he made $34,350.93 in one month without adsense; Then I thought “John made this huge money without adsesne, so why I’ll stop blogging just for being banned from adsense?” If I stopped blogging, you’d never see this post.
