Can Blogging Produce a Passive Income?

ProBlogger:

The question I’ve been asked a number of times by friends is whether my blogging strategy is one in which I’m building a passive income?

Its a good question which I’d like to answer in the affirmative – but am beginning to see that I can not. When I first started blogging with a commercial mindset I had lofty dreams of my blogs getting to a point where they would be able to earn me an ongoing large amount of money – Passive. My hope that blogging would enable me to not only give up my day job but that it would enable me to give all of my time to community and charity projects that would benefit others (my true passion).

I’ve been asking myself this same questions recently, and like Darren, don’t think that the medium is conducive of a passive income. By definition, weblogs are frequently updated websites. If I leave a site fallow, it will continue to earn advertising revenue, but eventually the free traffic will all but dry up.

Luckily the effort required to maintain and grow the site is not great, so maybe we can agree that blogging creates almost passive income.
