		<description>I would agree with you, however, there are a very large number of bloggers out there that are writing very poorly, and not making any effort to improve their skills.

They are basically making many of us look bad.

The good bloggers are not doing enough to help the bloggers in need of help, and they are not showing them that there are bigger rewards for writing better.

The good writers need to set the example and show that there is a better career path.  Too many people are settling for paid to blog crack.  I am not against sponsored money from advertisers, but too many bloggers write extremely poor sponsored articles that have little relevance to their blogs.

I pay bloggers to blog myself, through sponsors and ghost writing work and corporate blogging contracts.  But the entire industry is being hammered by non-fluent writers, poor writers, and spammers.  Even worse are the people that have potential but don&#039;t use it!</description>
