I presume you have a normal 9–5 job.

I presume what you earn is sufficient to pay off your living expense. Maybe you can even save a few hundred dollars every month, which you can invest elsewhere.

But, you know you can’t get out of the rat race just by relying on your salary. Also, after what happened in 2020, you realize there is no such thing as job security.

So you want to find another income stream. You have done some research and found out there are many ways to make money online. For instance, you can go with Dropshipping, Offering service, or being an influencer by creating quality content.

After some investigation, you decided to go with writing blogs, because it’s virtually risk-free, and the effort is minimal. You just need a computer, and constantly writing high-quality articles.

You are so dedicated and done so for more than a year, but you are seeing crickets.

Why? You’ve done everything you can to attract traffic. You are paying attention to SEO, tried out Pinterest, writing guest posts at other blogs, or even repost your content on Medium.

So, what went wrong then?
