One of the common topic among active bloggers is that how to earn a full time income through just by blogging only, just like a ProBlogger. Though the debate is quite interesting, but to me, there is one important aspect missing, that is the benefit of part-time blogging instead of a full-time commitment. This article will shed some enlightenment of this frequently overlooked aspect of blogging.
Security & Stability
One of the advantages of this kind of approach is that you will not loose the stability that comes with a full time day job; and also you don’t have to take the risk that can arise out of the straight full time involvement in blogging.
Less Pressure
With a part-time approach, you will be free from the pressure of earning huge sum just through blogging. You will be able to keep yourself nicely afloat with the full-time income. The blogging then will just be a very useful extra. So, even if you don’t earn that much in a certain month off blogging, you will not be any sever stymie.
Passive Income
Though you will not be entailed to earn the whole month’s expenditure off blogging, but actually you do have a good chance and scope to earn quite a handsome figure, with a judicious effort in part-time basis. The dedicated ones will find the their income increasing steadily and it may come to a point where you might think of finally giving up the day job.

Allowing Re-Investment
Blogging is also a business; and one common trait for almost every business is the factor of re-investing money to spread the activities in a more rapid manner. It effectively increasing the business deals and bringing more profit in return. However, in the case of part-time bloggers, this trend is really low, and they often is more interested to save money rather than re-investing part of their earnings to get some more opportunities. This thinking should be avoided and the bloggers must keep their heart open to some other opportunities also, even if it costs few bucks.
So, the aforementioned points really shows us that even blogging in part-time basis can open up some convenient opportunities for a blogger.
