   To be successful in blogging, one needs time and dedication. The main topic of the blog should be something which the blogger has subject matter expertise in. Otherwise, it becomes difficult to produce new content for the blog.

   I think that not quitting is an interesting way to define success. I think I catch what he's getting at. I think there is another issue at stake though. You need to define your own personal goal to blogging. What if the blog is to test out the market for a product or service (there have been other posts on Famous Bloggers about this idea). If there is no market for the thing you're selling, then success would actually be in quitting and starting something else. Then when you discover the blog that's worth doing, success would be in not quitting - so I'm with him there.

6. Mike Pedersen says:
   Cool video Hesham! I don't usually watch videos over 2-3 minutes, but I found James background and passion refreshing. I've downloaded the ebook, so I'll have a look, and hope to find some "nuggets" in there.
7. Bilal Ahmad says:

    Much appreciated insight, James! You have a very pleasant nature and a talented way of getting your points across. I absolutely resonated with the "soft sell" approach and the benefits of creating community by connecting with other bloggers and helping one another. I shy away from (avoid like the plague!) the phraseology, "monetize your blog" - don't care for that term at all. To me, blogging is the very best social media venue and shouldn't be viewed as a cash machine. Yes, you can make money with your blog but in my opinion, you won't see too many pennies rolling in unless and until you build community first. That needs to be your highest priority. And if you stick to that philosophy, the business will come ... naturally and almost effortlessly. Write On! Melanie P.S. Thanks a heap for your free blogging tips e-book - anxious to give it a read.

    Remember that interview Hesham, do you still manage that site? Thanks for the e-book, you know I always love e-books especially the free one, lol! :D
    • Hesham says:
      Of course Latief, I remember every single interview! I still manage the site, and we did 2 interviews recently, but we are not going so active (I hope we will do more in the near future)! Books are great, free books are awesome ;)
      • Latief says:
        Always love the good books, just read part of it bro. Inspiring me ;)

    This is great - thanks for sharing Hesham. I'm downloading the eBook now. I'm sure there is tons of useful information to learn from inside. @ James - Congrats! I'm really looking forward to reading it. Cheers
    • Ingrid Abboud says:
      Ooops! Looks like my little mention directed at James linked to another random James on Twitter lol. I obviously meant the comment for James King. Sorry about that - I'll be more careful when using shorthand :).
      • Hesham says:
        Ah! don't worry about that, I added a space before the "@" , this is the disadvantage of automatic Twitter ID links :)
        • Ingrid Abboud says:
          Hesham to the rescue :). ThankU for doing that.

    “Keep Blogging” rather than “Never Quit"! Wow, that is really inspiring and motivational. Words do really matter, and I am a firm believer that what you say and how you say it can impact what you do and how you do it. I need to read some of his content and surly get this ebook. I keep hearing about James king and I never got around to really getting to know his work. Thanks for the recommendation Hesham.
14. Mani Viswanathan says:
    I personally feel that a huge achievement for a blogger is when his/her blog has millions of subscribers & traffic :P
15. Nipon Bharali says:
    This ebook is really good and yea I believe "The biggest achievement for bloggers is to never quit."
16. Isabel Rodrigues - Pro Blogger Journey says:
    Thanks for sharing Hesham. I have downloaded the ebook and it looks good. As far as biggest achievement for a blogger goes I would stick to what James King says "Keep Blogging and never quit". As a blogger if I do the right things and be positive I will surely be known.

    Hi Hesham, I am pleased that you enjoy this eBook and I am sure that the readers of your will get some use from it. That video is a blast from the past, thats when you were interviewing people like: Marko Saric, Murray Newlands, even Andrew Rondeau, although 12 months or so has passed look at how things have changed. I designed the book to be easy to read and so that people can print it off and make notes. Coming from a print and development background its important to create options.
    • Hesham says:
      Yes James, it's really amazing that we still connecting together :) I hope we will be friend for ever! I really like the design of your e-book, great job and effort, many thanks!
