Q. What was the story behind your Blog?
Chris: My blogging evolved from the early days of the web. I was “online” before there was a web, in fact, so it is hard to say when I officially started blogging. It came out of my personal websites, but also I would write articles so I did not have to keep repeating myself when I was answering programming questions on boards and email lists.

Chris: I have made 100% of my living from blogging (directly and indirectly) since 2005, it’s what I do.

Q. Would you tell us about ONE of your famous posts?
Chris: My most famous piece of content is going to be my free ebook, Killer Flagship Content – it is about creating content that gets famous!

Nice interview. Great that a A-List blogger was interviewed by you. You must be over the moon.
Although Chris is a professional blogger and makes his living blogging. Not everyone can do that. It takes a lot of hard work, commitment, blood sweat and tears.
