The Power Of Blog(s) - Got a free trip to China with VIP Treatment!
But I never lost hope. I added articles and images with passion and grew the community. I love bikes and I love to share information about it.
Two weeks back a rep from a Chinese govt organization sent me an email that they are inviting me to CimaMotor 2009 - a Chinese motorcycle exhibition with 100% sponsorship. It turned out to be very true and I am just back from China. The stay was at a 5 start hotel and I got a VIP treatment. I have to publish some 5-6 articles according to the agreement and that's it.
There were nine journalists in all including me and there was one from Motorcycle.com, one from BikeLand.org and others were editors/photographers of print magazines.
Just wanted to share this to say that how powerful blogs can become. If you have a blog which has got good reception, don't let the numbers discourage you. Money is not the only currency with which you will be rewarded. Blogs provide:
- A community of people who want to hear from you (very important need for every human)
- Networking power
- Opportunity to visit places and events
- High social status
- A channel to pursue your passion
Good Luck !
