[quote=Anonymous]I blog about parenting stuff, though I have a hook and the content is not about my own kids. No fancy clothes or furniture or perfect life either—it’s actually heavily researched, substantive content. My life is far from perfect so I would never go down that path. I’d probably end up depressing all the readers looking for escapism and cookie recipes and bowls of lemons or whatever. Though come to think of it, I might make everyone feel better about themselves, so there’s that!  I make about $15k a year, but I have to hustle for it. Basically, other more commercial blogs pay me to create content for them because they like my voice and authority. I don’t use advertisers on my own blog, which I mostly started as a way to help others, not as a moneymaker. It did lead to a book deal a few years ago. I got a nice advance (about 50k) but the book itself hasn’t yet started to bring in money for me. It’s quite possible that it will. In the meantime, I’d hardly recommend this as a viable career option, but it’s good side money if you can figure out how to capitalize on what you’re doing. But I also woh.[/quote]
