Sufia Tippu for iTWire Australia

Amit Agarwal has a son named Google, makes tons of money as a “professional blogger” with his tech blog and offers advice on how to run a successful weblog company.

By popular demand India’s home-grown blogger, Amit Agarwal who started blogging two years after quitting his job at a software company spoke about how to make money as a blogger.

It is a very risky business and you need to have a fall-back plan.His site which has postings such as how to keep your Gmail inbox free of spam or how a Zippy search engine is better than Dogpile or Jux2to, rakes in hundreds of thousands of dollars.

It’s not really the kind of stuff that you would read in newspapers and magazines but just the kind of stuff you would relish when you have a couple of minutes to browse.

And, when you ask him whether he really makes that much of money while just having fun posting interesting stuff on his site, he deftly brushes aside that question and says with a laugh, “All you journalists want to ask me that same question – I wonder why.”
