A slow restart
I haven’t been following the meta bloggers that much since last summer. There are a couple of them still on my bloglines feed list though.
On the quest to restart this blog I went to john chow (who dropped out of my feed list long ago) to find out what a money making blog looks like nowadays. I guess he still makes some money but to me his site looks way to desperate to be taken serious.
Then I went to problogger (that I normally follow through bloglines) and to my dismay found it equally ‘in my face’.
So, is that the way to go for a startup blog in an over crowded niche? I don’t think so.
One could guess that most people that follow them regularly use their RSS feeds so they need to throw lots of ads on the emerging internet entrepreneurs before they get involved enough to discard all ads.
I think we will never know, in the fight for readers in a small niche I guess full disclosure is not always a good thing.
