One of the biggest problems new blogs like me face online is forgetting that even though we might like blogging, it really does not put food on the table just to write about the things that you like most about. I have seen some blogs claiming that they hate blogs that advertise but you would be surprised to see all sorts of banners and affiliate programs on their blogs.Anyone who says that they do something to make others feel better and for no monetary gain should be a Buddhist monk.

For the rest of us who accept that sooner or later we shall be trying to earn an income from our online activities, let us not forget that online business is just like any other brick and mortar business and a few rules should be followed.
