It boils down to this.

No mat­ter who you are, it seems com­par­a­tively easy to get 100 peo­ple to do the same thing, to go in the same direction.

There used to be four dis­tinct rea­sons that peo­ple would ask me to help them with blogging.

1– A per­son had an idea or a story and wanted to be heard. It isn’t always about money or busi­ness — see the polit­i­cal blog­ger, and the per­sonal blog. 

2– A per­son wanted to make extra money blog­ging. This doesn’t hap­pen as much, at least not on a full-time income level. But to some, even $5 — 20 a day is a huge help.

3– A per­son, (espe­cially an entre­pre­neur) or a larger com­pany wanted more vis­i­bil­ity. If you want to be seen, and to have mul­ti­ple oppor­tu­ni­ties to be seen again, you blog, and you keep blogging. 

4– Bet­ter search engine results or traf­fic. I would get a let­ter from some­one who had X amount of traf­fic that would bring them Y con­ver­sions. And all they wanted was more of each.
