My name is Alvin Lim Fong Yee. I am a software developer in a local company in Malaysia. I have been in programming field for more than 3 years and working with several companies before.
Here is my stories. I have heard about blogging and adsense since in the year of 2006. I opened an account and started blogging using blogspot. At first, I write about technical solutions regarding programming and coding. My blog have total of around 6 posts but then I give up on half way because I don’t have any intention to blog anymore since I feel boring about it already.
By the year 2008, I still checked on my blog and see whether have someone view my page or click on the ads. I guess I have too much ego. I thought blogging was easy and I can easily make money from it, it isn’t easier than I think. I am lazy to post and find interesting topic to write about. As the year is past, I am growing older and older. I am still waiting miracle to happen in my life. I am still looking how to make more money in my life. At that time, I know there are some malaysian bloggers already blogging about their life and stories. Indeed, I thought make money online doesn’t worked. I guess I am still dreaming :)
At the first month of year 2009, I heard about an interesting story about a malaysian blogger from my colleague. He mention about a blogger in malaysia who are giving talk in a bookstore. The talk is about how malaysian blogger make money from blogging and marketing online. Then, I look back some of the malaysian bloggers website and started to read their posts.
I was inspired by some of the successful malaysian bloggers. Then, I make my move and start blogging again. So, I create a new blog name TechHunger in blogspot and change my way of writing a topic. I am doing many research and keep searching for the information that I wish to write about. I found out that they already successful in blogging because they could earn a living with blogging although some still not very successful. I have come to understand that to be successful in blogging, one must have common sense, persistent action, know marketing, doing survey, and doing a lot of research.
Today, I have own a website and a domain. I am feeling totally happy about it because I feel my life has become more meaningful although it means more responsibility also. I think I can build my empire in internet by continuing efforts and persistent actions to apply what I have learned in my life. I will blog about my life experience also so that I can see the footprint of my life in the future.
