In the list of 50 most powerful people in India a blogger finds himself a place.

Here is a reason to cheer for Amit Verma who blogs at www.Indiauncut.com who is one of the most powerful people in India in 2009 along with many big industrialist, politicians, Sports men, Singers and many other famous people.


This is what Business Week has to Say -

Blogger Amit Varma brings a particular libertarian point of view to his columns and blog items, but also a risqué sense of humor that keeps readers hooked. He won the 2007 Bastiat Prize for his columns in Indian business paper Mint, and for a select group of Indians, he represents a libertarian, anti-tax and anti-government sensibility that is still quite rare in the country.

Kudos to Amit Verma.

Current scenario of Indian blogging Industry.

The Indian blogging industry was never so famous before many celebrities started blogging , including Mr. LK Advani.
Blog in simple words means expressing out our feeling which people can read and comment.

Current Situation.
But at present the Supreme Court Decision on Ajith D Case will hamper blogging in India.
This started when 19 year old Kerala resident Ajith D started an Orkut community against Shiv Sena that received several anonymous posts leveling certain allegations at the party. The Shiv Sena youth wing registered a criminal complaint, and Ajith was served a summons by a Maharashtra court to appear for the hearing. via

TOI says it is no more safe to start a blog and invite others to register their raunchy, caustic and even abusive comments on an issue while seeking protection behind the disclaimer — views expressed on the blog are that of the writers.

One thing a blogger should remember - Rather than always being negative be neutral or more positive.

23 years old boy makes Millions from bloggers.

Its recession time people are loosing out their jobs and here is a guy named Dushyant Bhatia who quit his job despite of promotion he got in a leading firm J P Morgan.
Guess what is he doing now ?
He is in blogosphere now. He along with his partner from US have an advertising portal for bloggers, Blogertize.in .
They started off with just Rs 45,000, have since made around $43,000 (over Rs 20 lakhs).
This is what he says -""There are so many people who write blogs and are hoping to monetize their efforts but they don't know how to. By buying advertising space on my site, I help direct users of my portal to their blogs.""They have to make a one-time payment for the next three years," said Bhatia, who offers ad space to bloggers at a rate of $15 (Rs 735) to $150 (Rs 7,350)." He said this to Mid Day.
Only last week they registered their 1500 th blogger.
He expects to generate over $100,000 (Rs 48.9 lakhs) in revenue over the next three months.

This is one unique strategy started by this young bud.
So finally one more Web 2.0 fan and entrepreneur.
