Pajama Professional: Money-Hungry Kumiko Acts Like Blogging is a Business

  • Jamie Harrop · 2 years ago
    Amen to that!

    Although CashQuests has been in my mental list of blogs I knew of, I have only recently subscribed and started reading.

    As a new reader, I can't say I've noticed anything about Kumiko's writing style that has put me off. In fact, I'm quite enjoying her blog. Change tends to effect those regular readers more than it effects new readers. If a new readers opinion is anything to go by, the regulars will soon get over the changes and realise they were relatively small when compared to the overall picture.

    Boy I hope that CashQuests is not sold. It is one of the few make money online blogs that actually teaches how to make money.

    Are you so sure she still owns it? It is pretty hard to find any reference to Kumiko on it now.

    James,

    I see what you mean. I doubt Kumiko would leave without announcing it, but it's not impossible that it has changed hands. I checked the registration info and it is registered to Domains by Proxy. I've never checked it before, so I don't know if that has changed and the dates haven't changed at all.

    Now I want to know how I can figure this out for sure.

    I guess you could use the contact form and ask.
    I just want to mention that I think Kumiko did a wonderful job pointing out that you can make money doing this if you work hard. I enjoyed her blog, I just do not find it as enjoyable now with the change. It still has good info and I think some of what is written is written to be a bit provacative. That seems true to the Kumiko style.

    Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but you're saying Kumiko is being more businesslike, as though that was a bad thing?

    Desty,

    I'm speaking sarcastically. I think blogs should be treated as businesses and anyone treating them otherwise is missing out. =)

    Looks like he sold his blog for $15,000 and nobody has heard from him since.
