… at least if we’re talking about direct revenue from blogging.

Yesterday, I posted about the fact that I’m looking for guest bloggers (one of them will publish his introductory article soon and tell us a thing or two about what he did right/wrong, all that good stuff) and one of my readers asked me why I’m not paying for articles.

As someone who has lived in Europe his entire life, I’m in a reasonably good position to notice that quite frankly, the fact that Europe is currently doing awful from an economic standpoint shouldn’t surprise anyone.

Yesterday, I’ve written about the fact that most of my business dealings with individuals and companies from Germany have been frustrating and a reader pointed out that it may very well be a phenomenon which affects Europe as a whole, not just Germany.

… do keep in mind that I said most, not all.

While there are indeed exceptions and I for one know at least a couple of genuinely awesome German domainers, most of my domain deals with people/companies from Germany have been frustrating to say the least.

I think I wrote the shortest post in “DomainingTips history” yesterday and the main reason was that, you guessed it: I wrote it on my smartphone. As much as I love you guys, I love my sanity more, so there’s no way I’m writing a long post on my smartphone.
