Quitting Your Job and CAD Blogging

The internet bubble burst in the year 2000, thousands of internet startup went kaput and investors lost billions of dollars, that was Web 1.0 and after 6 years of ups and down, Google and a couple of Silicon Valley company gave birth to Web 2.0. Ordinary people can make money by blogging and from what I heard, YouTube is preparing a new may to reward those that upload their own home made videos, with every 1000 people that watch your video in YouTube, and you’ll be rewarded in dollars.

Some quit their job and become a full time blogger, making thousands of USD per month blogging. From Malaysia you have LiewCF and one of the most famous blogger of all time is non other than Darren Rowse, believed to be making hunderds of thousand in USD per month blogging. He called blogging a job, some call it a hobby.

Novedge has an advice for all those CAD bloggers that is still in dream land, here goes:

If you listen to the buzz about blogs and bloggers you may get the wrong impression and you may assume you can quit your day job and start blogging, with Google AdSense as the new reliable source of income. If you take a closer look at the key numbers you may find out that a blogger’s life is not so easy.

CAD blogging is nothing new; it has been around long before the birth of blog. I know a few people that blog because of money and not because they love to blog, chances are these people are bound to fail in their blogging venture, and what if you make it big? Like Darren Rowse? Should you quit your job as an architect, draftsperson or whatever post you are holding now and be a full time CAD blogger? My advise is don’t quit. Making money from blogs is just your side income; it is not going to last forever. The knowledge you acquire through working is worth million times more than what you are going to make from blogging.
