If you are leaning towards starting a blog and want to make money blogging in the future, there are some important things to keep in mind before jumping into the water. First make sure you know the answer to this: What is a blog?

After grasping a good understanding of what a blog is and how you can engage in blog marketing, understand also that your ability to be successful blogging for money is more possible when:

1. You have good discipline - The initial steps to installing and creating a blog are a breeze. The trouble comes in maintaining the blog over a long period of time. You need to develop a system and schedule that works well for you. Look into some online organization resources such as a calendar, notebook or reminder system. You can find all of these for free.

2. You have something to pass along - Blogging can be fun and be a healthy hobby, but if you're serious about generating income from blogging, you need to have some useful information to pass along to readers. This ensures repeat visits.

3. You have time availability- Some people blog as a real job and donate all their time to blogging. You don't need to do this, but you will be spending a good amount of time on your blog. Even if you want to automate blog posting, you will spend time setting up an automated system. Again, you might turn to some free online resources to help guide you through this process.

4. You enjoy writing - To really understand how to start a blog involves understanding that it requires a lot of writing. Whether or not you do all the writing yourself does not matter, but your blog needs fresh content updated almost daily or weekly to really entice more visitors. This also helps keep readers on your site once that land on it.

5. You have some computer experience - Problems are going to surface every once in a while when you make a blog

6. You can handle negative feedback - People are going to make comments on your postings about things you say, and some will disagree. You need to be thick-skinned and be able to handle whatever comments come your way.

7. You enjoy reading - Sitting down to write a post actually involves sitting down to read other posts from other bloggers. Plan on spending as much time reading good articles as you do writing your own.
