Chris Garrett over at Performancing makes a number of good points on the popular ‘can anyone make money blogging’ question. Pro-Blogging is a new phenomenon, and many are keen to exploit the potential. Unfortunately many have the idea pro-blogging is “easy money”.

The idea of sitting in your underpants writing about something you enjoy and making money at it certainly is an attractive one. Inevitably though people ask me if anyone can do it. My answer is a qualified ‘yes’ …
Such a strange thing to say from someone who spends their days promoting the idea of Professional Blogging right? Why not “absolutely yes”, why the caveats?

The jury’s still out on this whole ProBlogger thing for me. While I’ve no doubt some people are making money at it, I think a lot of people are setting themselves up for a fall.
