Blogging, Comments and Making Money
Blogging can be a hobby, a pastime, a business or a a combination of all of them as a blog grows and changes. The important aspect is: Comments.
We love the art of writing, and we both have published a book, but there is a part which differs, and that is the trouble with blogging- or writing a good blog post.

A hobby blog probably won’t get a lot of comments, precisely because it is a hobby blog, but even then there is always a lot of room to expand and improve. Maybe it’s writing a post on the regular basis, or just getting a critique on your blog. It doesn’t matter, what matters is that people spend time and actually give a care about your writing.
Now, there is one instance I would argue there shouldn’t be a response, and that is dealing with people who are simply there to hurt or harm the writer with personal attacks. That is, in many people’s point of view the time when there would be a loss of dignity for the writer, and this is where bullying might take root. Barring these instances, it is part of writing, to respond to readers and build a positive relationship with them.
Even now I can see the positive thing writing, and responding to comments can mean to a blogger. Comments means people care, and after a while this builds a blog enough to help the blogger earn money. These are both the challenges a blogger, and a writer faces.
