Pros or Cons of blogging for money really depends on what you want and what is your expectations. As for me, this is my view about the pros and cons of blogging for money.
Putting the issue of money aside, the pros of blogging is people can share their thoughts, views and opinions online easily. They can share pictures and videos too. This has bring the world closer together. People can get to see the cultures, lifestyles, traditions etc of other countries. This can be a recreation, a hobby and entertainment for some people.
Your blog is something personal to you. You are the creator and you have every rights how you want to maximize the full usage of your blog. Using your blog as a source of avenues for money could be a new challenge to the blogger. For the youngsters such as students especially, it helps to build entrepreneurs spirit in them. Through writings, they can earn extra income, in so doing, they can learn to be independent as well.
Another advantage of blogging for money is that it is easy. Any retirees or students can sign up for an account and start blogging. Blogging for money create more income opportunities for bloggers and at the same time, job openings and income opportunites for online websites and companies as well. It makes a win-win situation for all.
The disadvantages of it is that blogging is not so much professional. To me it looks informal. However, it is a informal way of interaction with the general public too. So it is rather fair as well.
Depending on your qualification and your earning potential, if you can earn good income from your job, then blogging for money is not worth the time for you. A lot of time is spent on blogging - writing up (posting), editing the templates (design of the blog), advertising (get readers to your blog) etc, but the earning is not a lot.
Many website developers have seen that many people want to blog for money. They encourage people to write for money, sign up account with them and start blogging. However, these people do not get paid in the end. They provide various reasons to delay payment. This is where the disadvantage of blogging for money is - the existence of unethical and dishonest people who make use of bloggers for their own benefits.
