You're (Probably) Not Going To Be a Pro Blogger

Posted by timothy on from the but-you-could-still-win-valuable-prizes dept.

ThousandStars writes "Contrary to what the specious Wall Street Journal article Early Transition to Blog Pro says, You're Not Going to be a Professional Blogger argues that not that many people can make money through web advertising. The WSJ article 'doesn't discuss how people actually use their blogs to make money, which is by selling ancillary services.'"
