Man Behind youth inspiration blogger face of 2013 is Pradeep Kumar CEO & Founder of Slashsquare.
Let we ask few questions from "youth inspiration blogger face of 2013"
1. How you started Your Blogging Life?
I started my very first blog when I was in School. I didn't
realize it'll turn out into something like this. I just wanted to express my
views, my ideas and my knowledge. What started as a personal blog (with random
topics I love) is now a blog network (Slashsquare) with topics about Movies,
Hosting & Domains, Social Media, Blogging and Technology.
2. What is the best thing that you like about blogging?
The FREEDOM to voice your opinions and at the same time getting
paid for it. You can also connect with excellent people all over the globe.
Self satisfaction includes too!
3. Do you blog daily?
Due to my abnormal laziness I'm not really having any proper
schedule. But I do publish guest posts frequently. I got authors for
MoviesDrop, but for HostLater I'm working out. Posting frequency is important
but it depends on the kind of readers you have too.
4. How did you manage to get Pagerank 4?
Natural backlinks as well as guest post backlinks are the main
reasons. It took some time for us because we were accepting guest posts on our
blogs and also we were furiously writing sponsored/paid reviews on our blogs.
So that was kinda hard for us to improve the PR further too. You can write
eBooks or create Infographics to generate quality backlinks from reputed blogs.
5. Are you addicted to social media?
YES, very much indeed. I use Facebook frequently to express my
views, also trying my best to be active on Twitter. Twitter is more viral than
Facebook. Yet to experiment on YouTube.
6. How do you get traffic to your blog?
Accidentally some of our blog posts end up SEO'd and we get good
number of visits from search engines. Facebook and Twitter are next. I share
all my blog posts on my personal Facebook profile and interact with readers
there.
7. What is the best way to monetize a blog?
The best way to monetize your blog is to monetize it without
letting your readers know about it. Might sound difficult but this is how it
should be. CPC, CPM, Affiliates, Link ads, etc., all these monetization methods
become useless when your readers get irritated.
You can use Adsense, BuySellAds, Sponsored/Paid Reviews and much
more on your blog but make sure they don't mess up the core content of your
blog.
8. You got blogging success in such a young age. Comment.
I created my very first blog during my school days but
unfortunately I didn't understand the value of it at that time. It was like I
blogged just for time pass. I started HellBound Bloggers (HBB) during my
college first year. Initially there were few pressures and issues, but once you
started to understand that you hold a tool that could change your life, you'll
dedicate more time and work hard on it. Rest is History.
9. What are a few personal web projects you've got going on?
I got some interesting ideas but since I'm not into programming
side I couldn't work/start them asap. Currently I'm working on Review$old, a
Pay Per Review concept site, my friend Narendran is doing the major part.
10. What are a few sites you admire and why?
I started to admire so much of sites recently, they are creative
on several aspects like design, content, marketing strategy and so. I like
"The Oatmeal" very much, they explain a concept with images. They
made use of this phrase "A Picture is worth 1000 Words".
11. Do you prefer to work alone or on a team?
Teamwork is always the best, but sometimes it affects your
"idea". As long as they don't interfere with your ideas and works, it
is good.
12. What do you want to say about alexa and its presence?
I still don't remember the last time I checked my blog's Alexa
rank, even though I have its widget on my blog. I wish they could be more
relevant, and more understanding. Their premium plans are disappointing as
well.
13. What do you want to say about title "youth inspiration
blogger face of 2013" ?
That's a wonderful title and matches your blog perfectly. Helps to
expose several like-minded bloggers to the huge blogosphere out there.
At the last we thank to
Pradeep kumar for sharing his knowledge and ideas with us.
