Hey Ben,

Great article again.

Ben another great tie in. Unfortunately for myself I have never watched the Sopranos, if at all I maybe seen ten minutes of one episode, I am to cheap to subscribe to HBO so I never got into the show. I maybe to far gone to watch it now, so leave me and go save yourself.

This maybe a little off topic but another great show to watch is the Shield on FX. I started watching it around season three (luckily before that season FX re-ran the first two season so I was up to date) and from what I understand it has the same kind of family dynamic as the Sopranos. As Jeff Cannata says over at the Totally Rad Show, the Shield it is the best show ever. Like I said maybe off topic but I thought it might be of some use.

@Casie, I’d say the ‘Tony’ of the blogging world is ShoeMoney. He doesn’t take any crap from anybody, he has a sidekick (Dillsmack), and well, he even looks a bit mafia :p Jeremey, if you’re reading, j/k

I’ve actually never watched the Supranos, but I thought it was a great way to illustrate these points.

Blogging is definitely not an easy thing to do. It takes lots of hard work, time, and dedication. It’s really easy to loose your motivation, and let things go, but when that happens, the readers will definitely look elsewhere for good content.

Also, family is definitely a big one. Building relationships is a big part of becoming successful online. Without the help of friends that I’ve made over the past few years (including Ben), I would definitely not be anywhere near the level of online income that I am now.

Great article, well thought out and illustrates the points with great examples. The Sopranos seems to be a great show, but I have only seen parts of season 1

Yeah, Andy, I’m still waiting for the rest of the seasons to come out on DVD. Right now I’m stuck in the middle of season 6 and if you watched the show you know that’s a pretty piss poor spot to be stuck in. I’m hoping I can catch the rest of the episodes on A&E with my DVR but we’ll see.

That was a great show. I just didn’t like the long spans between seasons. The best one is “Protect your reputation” with a picture of Vito.. ha ha ha. To funny. Another great post Ben.

Thanks

Oooh now there’s a great post idea right there. I’d have to think about that one for a while. Thanks for the great comment Casie!
