…..does not exist!
That’s right! I said it all in first line. You can continue your search for it and jump to another blog or you can give me 2 minutes and find the secret.
Last week, I encountered the following comment on a very popular blog:
I started a blogger blog called {removed} in April 2009, but still the traffic is very low. How do I increase my traffic. I recently got Adsense. But the income is very very low, in cents i should say. How to increase the CTR. Email me please with pure magical tips. I am willing to pay money also for traffic , although not much..
“Pure Magical Tips” caught my attention and made me think how we all keep looking for magical tips!
Don’t we jump from one blog to other and then to another in hope finding a tip that will work like magic?
I have also been a “magic hunter” for a lot of time. I was also busy surfing the blogs looking for such tips that will work like magic!
But that was the situation until I found the truth.
There’s only one thing that can make you a Pro Blogger and that’s hard work!
What do you think? Is there a magical spell/tip that can turn anyone into a Pro Blogger?

About Ishan Sharma
Keep blogging, keep working on SEO, promote your blog / website is the ONLY way. It’s 2011, not 1991, having 10 pages of content, and naming it a “blog” isn’t the right way to do it. I had a 5 page content blog a long time ago, surprisingly, I had some traffic. But that was almost 15 years ago. Things doesn’t work this way anymore.
My magic trick to would be : write about something that you love or something that you can be related to everyday (either at work or life). So when you are blogging, you would feel like you’re gaining something, not losing time.
I think its part of human nature to want things the quickest and easiest way, but when you realize all your confidence, strength and wisdom comes from putting forth the effort to get to where you want to be. Its the same with any area of life, most people want that magic bullet or potion, to wave the wand and "poof" its there. I have been guilty of this many times and thankfully I have learned to become more aware of when I am thinking this way.
I like this article you wrote, very true!
Hi Ishan,
What you write are sacred words. There are many efforts to do for achieve a specific result, but from my perspective I think that when you have created a good result how for example a great article or an amazing Squidoo lens or a fantastic comment that adds value leaved on a Blog… the system it works and..works really well.
Probably it's something that can be defined like "Magic X Factor"
Well this "Magic X Factor" is what it's hidden behind the State of Flow.
People are too much involved daily in to do this, to do that etc.. and often they lose the base of the whole process:
"Keeping focused on the State of Flow".
Well, generally speaking to work to your daily tasks inside this powerful state..well I believe that seriously you can trasform what you believe impossible, into possible.
The right question now is:
"But how I can handle my ability to jump into into a State of Flow?"
This is a really interesting topic for me, and I promise at all to write down an awesome blog post on this, very soon!
Let me introduce now, only 2 basic rules for go into a powerful State of Flow. Are you really ready?
Let's go..
1) Be happy in your present!
Well and only for explain deeply this, I believe that there would want at least 10 web pages. Therefore I need to analyze and to reveal the process very soon through a post on my Blog
2) You must have a clear long term vision of where you want to go!
Also this topics, really passionate me.
Well, I hope to have open your mind to the good.
I promise everyone to write e truly valuable post around this indispensable "Magic X Factor"!
Thanks really endless Ishan for giving me the possibility to explain my passions. I love Awesome Guys, like you that want to materialize their dreams and are deeply engaged in make the world a better place.
My hand on my heart,

Well there is no magical word in blogosphere. But I can understand the agony of the blogger. It is hard to drive the traffic to the website without proper SEO and social networking. I hope I can help that guy. All I can tell him is hey kid, don't worry just keep working hard and you will get the success eventually.

Hey Ishan,
I think that whole philosphy is true for many things. People are always looking for the silver bullet that will make them Rich in 7 days, or something. It doesn't exist. Yes, leverage can go along way, but for folks starting out, you need to trade time for dollars usually.
Put in some sweat, and maybe even tears.

Hi Brandon,
You are right. In starting, lot of time goes and very few dollars come in. However, this is something everyone has to go through. But unfortunately, most people quit in this period after thy don't find the "silver bullet"!
Thanks for Commenting.
No magic formula except work harder than anyone else and a little luck along the way doesn't hurt either.
.-= Mike Roosa´s recent blog ..I’m Giving Away The Farm — Read This If You Like Free Stuff =-.
Yes, there's no magic formula except hard work. Luck starts showing up only after you work hard. Even a person with best luck on the earth won't be able to get a traffic surge on a blog with 0 visits per day, he will have to work had first!
Ishan, I want some of those pure magical tips
That is so funny. But I do think that we all start out thinking that there is some secret shortcut to get to the place that probloggers have worked years to obtain.
In the end, online work is like any other work. We succeed or fail based on our skills and efforts more than anything else. But, really, I do hope you'll let me in on those pure magical tips if you run across any
.-= Jean Sarauer´s recent blog ..And the Winner is . . . . =-.
Hi Jean. I will let you know when I find that tip myself.
Yes, we all start thinking about shortcuts at one point or another. However, what is important for bloggers is to realize that there is no such magic tip and work hard. That's why I wrote this post!
I think everyone goes through this, I know I did for awhile. I think It has a lot to do with the way some people market. They make it seem like magic and oh so easy to earn a living online whether it's blogging or otherwise. People are surprised when they find out you actually have to do work. An online business is still a business. There is no magic tip to do it for you.

Hi Christopher, thanks for your comment. Yes, many bloggers make it look as it if it is very easy to make money from blogging and new people fall into this illusion. Many bloggers fail to realize that there's a lot of hard work involved!
