The world's abandoned blogs

Why do 95% of them end up in this category?

It turns out that this cycle may not be uncommon. Surveys have shown that 95% of blogs are abandoned within 120 days and 60-80% of them abandoned within the first month. I'm not 100% certain if these statistics are still valid today, but I have a hunch they are or perhaps even worse. Many of us simply don't have the time, energy, passion and stamina it takes to build an online audience. Worse still, we've entered an age of conspicuousness in which blogs gone unnoticed are blogs worth abandoning. Put those two together and you find yourself stuck with massive inertia.
