Learning and Earning in Blogging

I have been in blogging activities for more than 5 years now for I started in February 2011. I created two blogs to accommodate my reader-followers of my "Vibrations", my weekly column in our local newspaper.

The first is RandomThoughts, a lifestyle, mixed blog and the second is Tumandok, a blog on local dialect which deals on the cultural and arts of our country. I wanted to have an online version of a Hiligaynon Magazine which is written in the said dialect, "Hiligaynon".

I kept on writing and writing. I didn't know how to promote them. Those blogs received a limited readers. Still, I never gave up. I did continue writing, updating the posts to both blogs. In my 8-month of existing, I noticed the organic traffic showed an improvement. The page views seemed to go viral. I wondered why.

The "labor of Love" is symbolized by a plow which is the token I received from Negros Bloggers to recognize me as one of the best bloggers in the Visayas in this year 2011.  NB/NDB writer Gil Severino, the program emcee puts it as a "labor of love" and it is very true indeed for my name so suggests it is an acrostic of God Is Love.

The awards I received were the "Best Blog in Culture and Arts" for Tumandok and "Best Blog in Lifestyles" for RandomThoughts!. These were given by the prestigious award-giving body, The Philippine Blog Awards Inc. established in 2007 which aims "to recognize the best in the Filipino Blogging Community."
