I am not proud of my blog
After the DigitalFilipino.com Club Event in Manila held last night, I decided to convert this blog as my primary blog because I noticed that whenever people/bloggers ask me what my blog is, I keep on saying, “Omg! I am not proud of my blog/s.” I used to blog about my personal views like the rest of the bloggers out there but then, after hitting a gold mine online, I immediately converted practically all of my sites into a money making machine. Truly, I made money online but then, it “killed my social life”.
Oh yes, I opted for my paypal account rather than having my blog be a real blog where people will be interested to visit.
I guess, I am going to name this blog, garyviray.com as “I am not proud of my blog” because it will keep on reminding me on how I transformed from being a real blogger to a money making guy online and back again, just to be proud of my blog again.
Geez! as of now, please don’t ask me of what my blog is, okay? lol.

I’d rather have your fat Paypal account than pride in my blog
October 25th, 2008 at 11:16 pm
lol. Different perspective. hanu? hehe.

Hi thanks for your comment on my blog well i think you should be proud of anything you own if not don’t mention it nalang instead of saying you’re not proud ü
Nga pala i will take it as reverse psychology regarding your blog title ü
Ka batch pud ka namo nila Dara?ü

So you were at the DFC bloggers event too. Hehe okay lang yan. Like you, mukha din akong pera hahaha. I suggest you make a blog na pangsocial-ekek like this one and have a couple of blogs for the moolah. That way, you can get the best of both worlds diba?
Cheers!

October 27th, 2008 at 1:12 am
…what i meant sir was….kapag hindi na one million apart yung table ko sa mga bloggers…napunta kasi ako sa dulung-dulo eh.
October 27th, 2008 at 2:27 am

here’s one <—- proud of you heehe and i could see from your feed na 300+ sumtin sumtin ang proud seyo!
nice meeting you gary!
October 27th, 2008 at 4:26 am
Hi Gary, though we were not able to talk, but it was nice to meet somebody in person who’s really earning money online. THose products you mentioned do pay well. Hehe.
One thing, you seemed to be very familiar I must have met you some where before.
October 27th, 2008 at 4:48 am
Hehe, sometimes, it’s really hard to pick a niche for your blog.
Let’s mingle next time!!

Hopped in here from Bloggista, gary v.! Upon browsing the three previous pages, i understand what you meant in your post title. I’ve been at that point in my blogging career (as if may career), earning much from pp but no longer proud of my blog direction. Then google slapped me. I bought my own domain to start again. This time, without the pp. But i’m not closing my doors and windows on such money-making opportunities. Making money online is hard work, and something to be proud of.

@ceblogger
Making money is real hark work, right. But truly look at my posts. lol. Nakaaliw. Walang direksyon! hehe
October 27th, 2008 at 5:31 pm
@reyna elena,
may feed? oo nga taas na rin hanu? later try to visit it again… lol. opps!
October 27th, 2008 at 6:32 pm
Hi! I am sorry that I did not included your name on my initial list, but now I did. Thanks for reminding me by leaving a comment to my event post.
Yes, I remember we had a small chit-chat during the event. But I am really intrigued by your tagline – not proud of your blog. If you’re not, then who will you expect to be?
Making money out of blogging is the dream of many, and you should be proud of being among the few who are making it.
By the way, here is something to think about and think real hard.
Some real bloggers are making money online, but NOT ALL who are making money online are real bloggers.
Thanks!

@Angel Cuala
There is a story behind that tagline, Angel. It makes me smile whenever I recall it.

October 29th, 2008 at 1:04 am
Okay I won’t ask about this blog. Hehe. I find it nice to meet bloggers who live near my place – don’t you?
Anyway, a lesson learned. This is what’s great about blogger meetings – you learn from other bloggers and realize you’re not alone.
October 31st, 2008 at 8:37 am
Even if you’re not proud of your blog, at least nakita niyo ang ibang bloggers. I think that’s what these blogger meetings are for – to learn from each other.
November 2nd, 2008 at 10:00 am
sorry po sir gary…newbie lang hindi pa rin naman ako kasi ganun ka-familiar sa feedburner. oh well, tao lang nagkakamali di ba? honest mistake here…
thanks for noting that po.
November 3rd, 2008 at 2:26 am
HOY LALAKI! saan ka na naman nag-su-su-ot?!
Nga pala yeah, taka ako’t dami mong nakasalang sa burner! wwaaaaa! bat ganun? kakarampot lang saken?!
November 4th, 2008 at 9:39 pm
merong milagro dyan sa burner, reynz!
November 7th, 2008 at 8:15 pm
Mukhang hindi naguupdate ng blog si Sir Gary, siguro gumagawa ka ng bagong blog, “I’m now Proud of my Blog” Hehehe!!
Cheers!!
