Interview with Amit Shaw

(www.iTechCode.com)

Q: Hi Amit, Thanks for giving your Precious Time, please give some intro for our readers.

Ans: Hey thanks Nishant for this honor and giving me a chance to feature on your site ).

I am Amit Shaw from a Small City called Dishergarh, Asansol which is situated in West Bengal, India. I am very simple guy, Damn crazy to learn always something new. Currently I am working as a Blogger and running more than 10+ Blogs ( Except Niche Sites), Where my main blog is iTechCode. Yeah I know I know your all readers already know about the popular Itechcode ;)  Really Very Popular Indian Blog.

I am a very fun loving guy. I have just completed my BSC(IT) and soon going to start my MCA.

Q.  How you enter in Blogging World?

Ans: I was searching for a Software API on a Facebook group called PHP and Dot Net Group there I came to know a guy from delhi name AtishRanjan, who referred me to another guy for this type of query then I asked that guy about the API and luckily I got that too… after 2 to 3 days again I pinged Atish for just simple conversation and I asked him what he do and etc. Came to know that he is blogger..never heard this term ;) After then I showed some interest on it and launched my first blogspot blog then after 40 days I deleted and bought my own domain ITC and started my journey.

Q: What you think about the future of Blogging in India Specially for new Bloggers.

Ans: Future Blogging? I would love to say Future Career .. .  It will be another course in all universities. I have seen some guys who are blogging only for 1 year and if you will compare with MCA and MSC Student then you will get the difference. Bloggers are buzzing with lots of new ideas. I have conducted some seminar on Blogging and have seen that most of the young guys are so interested when they hear that we can earn money from blogging.

Q: How many Online Blogs you are managing? And, How you manage time for blogging Please share some Time management Tips.

Ans: Currently I have 3 Online Blogs, iTechCode, Technoinsta and Androidfirm and rest 7 where 2 is yet not publicly announced and the rest 5 are in underconsturction. Soon another two will live, Domain name is ……………..com and ……….com ;) Don’t worry I won’t reveal the name here :D . It will be surprising. Except those publicly revealed blog I have some niche sites as well , hope you won’t ask me the name of those sites :D .

Q: What you think Blogging is a Full time or Part Time work?

Ans: I have been seeing that for the last couple of years it was a trend for student. Most students are very active so for that it would be as part-time. But for me Blogging is a Full time work as I have depended on it fully it brings me passive income and still I am expanding my online venture. So at least for me it is full time.. . .

Q: There are very less women in India who are professional bloggers,how can we Increase the number and also give some advice to upcoming Women Pro Bloggers in India.

Ans: Who said that in India women bloggers are very less? I don’t agree, with this. I am very active on indiblogger.in and I have seen lots of women/young girls who is in blogging. But yes its very true the number is less then Men Bloggers.

Yeah here I want to share some advice, women/young girls should be active on social network sites. For that reason they are not able to get exposer  what they are doing.

Q: List some of your favorite bloggers which you like from your Initial days of blogging?

Ans: WOW. . . .  This is going to be a  very tough question for me :D

My Favorite Bloggers :

Harsh Agarwal from Shoutmeloud.com ,Ileane Smith from BasicBlogTips.com, Jane Sheba from Probloggingsucess.com, Ana Hoffman from Traffic Generation Café, AmitAgarwal from labnol.org, AtishRanjan from Techtricksworld.com, Pradeep kumar from Hellboundblogger.com, Daniel Scocco, Oni from youngprepro. I think it’s not going to be end ;) . . .. .  There are lots of young guys who are doing very well on their blogs. Rahul Kuntala from LearnBlogTips.com , NishantSrivastava (You).

Q: Do you think Investment is Important in blogging?

Ans: How can we expect returns without investments? Simple business funda is First Invest then Earn. When I entered into blogging I didn’t think that I could earn. Today I am very happy that the investment was worth it and still I am getting returns from that investment.

Q: Share some changes in your life, before and after blogging.

Ans:Yeah Blogging really changed my life.

  1. I make money $$$$.
  2. I have lots of fans and Almost from each and every country. I really feel proud.
  3. I am not Native English Speaker but now I can talk with any native speaker without any hesitation.
  4. Now I can manage any type of online Deals though I am not Business Student.

Q: Indian Bloggers are doing quite well in Blogging world, but still we are far away from Many famous bloggers in this world, How we can Improve this any Suggestions for Upcoming Bloggers in India?

Ans: Well most people in India don’t consider working online a proper way of making a career, which is wrong. One can be a blogging guru and become a big entrepreneur just through blogging. We need to change the way people think about blogging in this Country. Not only does an engineer or a doctor earn, but so can a blogger.

Q: What are the main sources of your Earning in Blogging?

Ans: Nishant my main source of earning is mainly Affiliate, Paid Posts and Adsense.  But when I entered into the blogging arena that time I dint have any idea about Affiliate marketing so I started my earning with Paid post and Adsense after then I joined some groups, forums and found some awesome people engaged with Affiliate marketing who are earning lots of money from Affiliate and I thought to myself if they can do why not me? So I gave my whole effort on Affiliate learned so many affiliate blogs, gave my time to some forum threads and still I am learning you can say earning with learning ;) .

Q:  Thank You for Sharing Your Views and Ideas with us.

Ans: Thank you so much for this honor Nishant. I would love to connect your readers.
