Maintaining several blogs, a full-time-job, internet & consulting business and web projects really requires proper time management. Planning, allocating, setting goals, delegation, analysis of time spent, monitoring, organizing, scheduling, and prioritizing is really a necessity to balances every thing. That’s why last year I made a survey on “How much time does a blogger need to maintain his blog?” Based from the responses, most of the full time bloggers spent 14 to 48 hrs a week into blogging. From the result I was able to classify bloggers as follows:
0 to 2hrs a week - “Blogger Wanna Be, But Cannot Be “or As EntreCard define it “They’re just here for the view.”
2 to 5 hrs a week – Casual Blogger – do blogging on weekends or casually.
5 to 14 hrs a week – Part Time Blogger – Who a lot time for blogging but doing it part time.
14 to 48 hrs a week – Full Time or Dedicated Blogger – blogger who take blogging seriously and with dedication.
48hrs or more – a week - Serious Blogger – blogger who takes blogging as their bread and butter.
Does Blogging Requires Time? If you really wanted to earn online, I guess it’s a big Yes. But like Edcel one of my commenter says ” … I don’t count blogging as work, it’s more of a hobby and i like to blog so it doesn’t feel like a hassle to me at all, though sometimes it does. nevertheless, it’s more on being able to blog because of wanting to blog.”
With that I leave you guys something to think about… (H. Jackson Brown Jr. Quoted.)
“Don’t say you don’t have enough time. You have exactly the same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller, Pasteur, Michaelangelo, Mother Teresa, Leonardo da Vinci, Thomas Jefferson, and Albert Einstein.”
Are you like me, eating while blogging? or if you have any tips on how you handle your time, share it. Sharing won’t hurt a bit….

I think most of the time, I belong to the full time and dedicated blogger. Sometimes, I exceed the number of hours become a serious blogger.

I fall in the 2-5 hour for blogging but started blogs and failed. This one I am taking serious because it is directly related to my whole business which I am trying to make into my full time career.
But yea man it is work. You have to love it man.
