There are many benefits to pursuing a career in blogging. Perhaps one of the most alluring benefits to a career in blogging is the work can typically be done as a telecommute position. This is because as long as the blogger has access to a pc and the software necessary to write and upload a blog, there is no need for the blogger to perform the work from any specific location. This means the blogger can live virtually anywhere in the world and can probably perform the necessary work from his own home. However, not all career blogging positions are telecommute positions. Some organizations may prefer their bloggers to perform the work on-site as a matter of company policy.

Another benefit to a career in blogging is the ability to accomplish work at a pace which is convenient to the blogger. The blogger is usually required to upload a new post to the blog according to a regular schedule but the actually writing of the posts can be accomplished when it is convenient for the blogger. Many blogging software packages enable the blogger to set a specific time for a specific post to be uploaded. This allows the blogger to write several posts at a time and have them published according to a pre-determined schedule.

Finding Time to Blog

One of the problems which many bloggers face is finding the time to blog. This is especially difficult if the blogger maintains several blogs or if the blogger maintains a current events blog in which posts must be timely in order to be relevant and of interest to the readers. Writing blog posts in batches and scheduling them to publish as needed is one way to deal with managing several blogs. However, writers of blogs related to current events must take special care to budget their time wisely to ensure they are publishing topical blog posts. One way this can be accomplished is by setting aside time daily to reading current events to derive inspiration and then scheduling time after that to write and publish the blog. For example a blogger with a current events blog might choose to review the previous day's news the first thing in the morning to ensure they are reviewing all of the relevant news from the previous day before writing the blog post.

As you can see there are lots of financial and personal benefits to becoming a career blogger.
