In an exclusive interview series opportunity this time I managed to interview Darren Rowse, "teachers" the bloggers of the world turned out to enjoy their honeymoon in Bali. The topic this time was an exclusive interview about the opportunities make money from blogging.

Medhy: What do you think of non-English blogs in general?

 Darren Rowse: I love the fact that blogging communities exist in different language groups around the world. Unfortunately I don’t have any other language other than English so can’t really participate in any of them – but think it’s great to see bloggers blogging in their native tongue.

Medhy: Do you think non-English blogs have good prospect in the online business realm?

Darren Rowse: Yes – there are some real advantages to doing it in your own language (see next question).

Medhy: What are the most advantages of non-English blogs compared with English blogs in the online business realm?

Darren Rowse: There are a number: 1. if you blog in your first language you are more at ease, relaxed and proficient in communicating. You’ll do a lot better at attracting an audience and getting respect of readers. 2. less competition – the English blogging space is very crowded but in talking to a few friends who blog in other languages they tell me that they’ve been able to become the number 1 blog in their niche for that language.

Medhy: What are the obstacles or constraints?

Darren Rowse: One obstacle can be the number of people searching the web for information in some languages as compared to those searching in English. The ‘market’ for content online is big in English so the size of audience possible in some other languages could be more limited. However if you can be first to the topic and rank #1 it can still be profitable.

Medhy: What opportunities are mostly suit for non-English blogs?

Darren Rowse: They are limitless. Blog on a topic that you’re passionate about – that’s always been my approach to selecting a topic.

Medhy: What theme mostly fit for non-English blogs?

Medhy: While most online ads are in English, what are the non-English blogs have to do to get the cake?

Darren Rowse: This can be a challenge. There seem to be less options in some languages than others. AdSense seems to be one ad network that is growing it’s non English ad offerings so that could be a start. Otherwise look for CPM ad networks that serve ads to international traffic. Another solution would be to approach local advertisers directly and ask them to sponsor your blog. I also would look for affiliate programs in your language. Lastly – why not make your own product to sell on your blog?

Medhy: Among these programs: Google Adsense and PPC Ads, Affiliate Programs, Paid to Click, Paid to Review, Independent Ads, Others – which one will give more opportunity for non-English blogs?

Darren Rowse: It’ll really vary from topic to topic – the same is true for English blogs. Some convert much better with AdSense than affiliate programs while for others it is the other way around.

Medhy: Do you think non-English speaker bloggers should push themselves to write post in English?

Darren Rowse: It depends upon their ability in writing English and the amount of time that they have to write more than one blog. If you have a good grasp of English I don’t see why not – but personally would not give up on my non English blog to do it.

Medhy: What are the most advantages of social media/social networking/social bookmarking for non-English blogs?

Darren Rowse: Social media is all about networking for me and is a great way to find others with similar passions, interests and demographics to you – these people could be potential readers for your blog so it’s a good place to promote yourself.

Medhy: Do you have or may consider running any new project specifically address for non-English blogs?

Darren Rowse: I have toyed with the idea of translating my blogs into other languages but this will not happen for a while.

Medhy: What’s your advice for non-English speaker bloggers in order to keep survive in the online business realm?

Darren Rowse: Work hard at creating quality content and stick at it for the long haul.

Write content that is useful and persistence in working in this world of blogging for money are two of the important points that we should underline from exclusive interviews along with Darren Rowse.

Earn money through blogging is not an overnight endeavor, but it takes hard work, time and patience. Darren Rowse has already proved it.
