Bloggers Who Make It Big

Posted by Lizz Shepherd Apr 24, 2009

I have been writing quite a few articles lately about bloggers who make it to the big time. To me, it doesn't get much bigger than getting a book published that is based on the blog. Once I found out that this was happening, I started writing articles about bloggers who were able to achieve this. Take a look at Blogs Into Books to read about many bloggers who have done this. Many of them are approached either by publishers or by agents who want to sell the idea to publishers.

I have been working on a series of interviews with bloggers who have achieved this kind of fame. If you've ever read the fabulous Go Fug Yourself, you may alredy be familiar with Heather and Jessica, both of whom I interviewed for two articles about blogging and their popular book. If you've never heard of Hot Chicks With Douchebags, it's not a blog for everyone, but it does have a very loyal (and large) audience, and there is a book based on it.

Perez Hilton is another blogger who has made it big. I haven't interviewed him (yet!), but his blog has gotten him TV specials, earned him millions and got him a book deal.

I have more interviews planned out for this series of articles, and I hope they can be of some inspiration to bloggers who love to blog and want to achieve their dreams with their creative blogging.
