What Was/is the most difficult part of your blogging experience?
Please share the most difficult thing that you had to face as a blogger .And if possible please do mention how you own the battle.This may help and inspire new bloggers.
I started blogging ona whim. I knew zilch about it when I began; I learnt every step off the way.
Currently, the only difficult thing about blogging is making the time to blog. 
I had fun making the template of my blog. Trying to get advertising to work drove me up the wall, even though my blog enjoys good traffic. I gave up on it completely. I found little unobtrusive paid links in the sidebar a better option to advertising.
Your blog is really good :) You shouldn't give up
hey hemal thats the sprit:) but again revenue from ads is directly related to traffic so here again traffic is the trouble maker.
Blogging is pretty easy and i havent come across a thing which is difficult, except for the revenues that comes from ads.
Like most of you guys, 1st difficulty is choosing ta template. But once I did that, a bigger difficulty arose. Creating an image that I wanted on the home page and a different one when you just opened a post. I had to design my own images. That was the difficult part. Had to do a lot of cropping, choping, cutting, pasting, typing etc.
But trust me it was all fun.
Hey amitabh I think traffic should not control the emotion otherwise it will be bit diffucult for a blogger.Traffic is definitely an important aspect of blogging because at the end of day we are writing to make our voice heard if nobody will read what we write then there is no point in doing so much of hardwork.But traffic should not be so much in our mind that it starts controlling us.As said in bhagavad gita do your duty and left the rest of things to themselves.thats what I think.I may be wrong as I'm just in the beginning of things.keep blogging :)
The most difficult part of blogging is the constantly fluctuating emotions. When I get good traffic, my hopes are all up, my mood is fantastic. And then some days are miserable: less traffic.
This is an ongoing battle and is likely to last for ever. Perhaps I will get used to it.
Cheers!

Reading most of the reply I can say template is the most time taking and confusing factor in blogging.But yes spending time on the content is also important.Keep blogging everybody.
k..kunu..i will take a look at it.. http://ballat.blogspot.com
The most difficult thing is to get my butt off the sofa and start typing out a post for the blog. But once I do start it's smooth sailing from there on.
Everybody who commented before me is going on about how it is tough to choose/accomodate widgets and templates why doesn't any one tell us about the difficulties they have while actually creating a post?!?!
Hey shankar very true gathering traffic for blog is also one hell of a issue.As far as I am concerned I still have not told any of my friend about my venture into blogging as I know when they will visit my blog few of them will praise me like I'm the best blogger in this world and few of them will criticize it like ram gopal varma ki aag so I'll never know where I stand as a blogger therefore I have decided to continue on my own.Lets see how much traffic I can get on my own.And I think that is the real fun of blogging.I wish you luck for your blogging ahead.
Hey kunu..even i didnt say about my blog to my friends for the same reason. But many bloggers have huge networks, writing for more than one blogs..getting lots of comments,appreciation and criticism.I thought i am the only person struggling to form a network. http://ballat.blogspot.com
First thing is choosing the right template.then accomadating the widgets in right space. As i am new to blogging and i dont have any of my close friends who are interested in blogging.so forming a network has really been a difficult thing for me.My blog is now almost a month old and i have a small network with 9 followers. I hope soon my network will improve. http://ballat.blogspot.com
very true :) selection of template and widgets are two huge and important tasks .
