How Addicted to Blogging Are You? (plus new book)
JustSayHi.com has a tool called “How addicted to blogging are you?” It is a quiz that consists of 14 questions, which determines the level of your addiction to blogging. I scored 68%, so I am moderately addicted to blogging.
Book About “Blogging”
On another note, Steph from FollowSteph.com is publishing a book about blogging. The book will consists of interviews from well known bloggers like Seth Gothin, Aaron of SEObook, Neil Patel, Steve Rubel, Yaro Starak and many more. I am flattered to be included in the list. You can see the full list of all bloggers who will be included in the book here.
The interview was conducted in written format about two months ago. Steph asked very precise and important questions. I am sure that the readers will find the book very useful. Here is some of the questions he had asked:
About Success
What makes a blog successful according to you? Is it traffic, reach, revenue, etc.?
When did you decide you finally reached success with your blog?
How long does it take to become a successful blogger?
Who do you think are the most successful bloggers on the internet today?Resources
Which five blogs do you regularly read?
Which websites would you recommend for any new bloggers starting to blog?
Which book(s) would you recommend for new bloggers (these can range from marketing books, blogging books, etc.)?Content
What is your most successful blog post ever?
What’s your biggest tip on writing a successful blog post?
What’s your best advice in regards to content and writing for bloggers?
How important do you think are the headlines of your blog articles?Marketing
Do you spend any money and time on marketing?
What are your main methods of marketing your blog?
Which marketing tactic has surprised you the most in terms of its effectiveness?Tips
What are your quick and short five best tips for blogging?
What is the most common pitfall new bloggers generally fall into?
If you knew what you know now when you first started, what’s the one biggest tip you’d give yourself today?
What repels you the most from a blog (animations, in your face advertising, etc.)?Monetization
Do you make any direct money from your blog through advertising, product placements, etc.?
What is your best monetization method (Ads, affiliate marketing, etc.)?
Do you find you get more from direct monetization of your blog or from opportunities that come because of the existence of your blog?
So, watch out for this book. Steph informed me that the book will be available in major bookstores worldwide, including Amazon. I am eagerly waiting for the book too, not because I am in the book, but because I want to read other fellow bloggers’ tips and advices. I am sure there will be many new things to learn for me from this book.

So, what happens when you fluctuate. I used to be much higher, scoring 63%, but now after the holidays I’m down. No worries though, I can get addicted again ;)

I have to agree that I’m guilty of that, I don’t even need to take the test :)
Though I wouldn’t use the term addicted, I’d rather say that I always enjoy giving it 110% when I am doing something I am passionate about.

Book Reader, if it fluctuate, there is nothing wrong with it. And having 100% does not mean that it is good for you. Finally, it’s just a tool for entertainment, should not be taken seriously.
