I started blogging in 2008. And so if you wanted people to come to your website, if you wanted the rank on Google, if you wanted, there wasn't much sharing on social media back then.

I definitely think blogging is in a tough spot. I... What happened with blogging is just that all of the smaller and medium-sized websites, they either couldn't monetize anymore or they got eaten up by larger networks and large websites. So people went to Huffington Post or writing for Huffington Post or Business Insider or whatever. So it's a tough spot to start.

It was, you had to be blogging. You had to be posting articles and coming up with stuff. And so that's actually how I ended up blogging. Originally it was just to like promote these crappy affiliate sites I had. And it turned out I was much better at blogging than I was e-commerce.
