If you want to succeed in the blogosphere then inspiration is critical. Reading the success stories of the top bloggers inspires to replicate their success. Making a living on blogging is difficult but not impossible and if they have done it why can’t you ? The list below is my humble attempt to summarize the revenues generated by the top bloggers in India. (The revenues are only an estimation and have been kept on the lower side. The actual revenues are far more than shown here.)
1. Labnol.org
Owner : Amit Agarwal
Revenue : Rs. 21 Lakhs/Month
Amit is the king of blogging in India. He is also known as the Father of Indian Blogging. His technology blog, Labnol.org, receives more than 3 million page views per month. Amit quit his job in 2004 as his blog was bringing in a lot of cash and moreover he wanted to stay with his family. Labnol.org is a No Rubbish blog and all the articles are aimed to provide genuine technical help to the readers.
Owner : Amit Bhawani
Revenue : Rs. 8.5 Lakhs/Month
Amit started out in 2005, but he didn’t succeed then because he was trying to manage multiple blogs. Finally, he decided to put all his energy on one blog and then came grand success to him. His blog deals with technology, health, career, pictures, India & auto.
Owner : Harsh Agarwal
Revenue : Rs. 5 Lakhs/Month
An accident that compelled Harsh to stay in bed for 5 months was a boon in disguise. This was the phase when he used to spend 14 hours a day in front of his lap top learning and writing new things. During this period he researched how other bloggers had succeeded and how he could replicate their success. His blog deals with blogging, social media, wordpress, SEO, technology & making money online.
4. TechPP.com
Owner : Raju PP

Raju quit his job at infosys to earn his living through full time blogging. He has been listed as the most influential Indian on the social media in the field of technology by HT Brunch Magazine.
Owner : Srinivas Tamada
Revenue : Rs. 3.7 Lakhs/Months
Srinivas runs a tutorial blog. His blog provides tutorials on programming, database, jquery, ajax, php, demo, web design, css and web apps.
Owner : Jaspal singh

It is said that Jaspal is often seen with his laptop (even while sleeping). His blog deals with topics like tech news, internet tips, social media and design.
7. Trak.in
Owner : Arun Prabhudesai
Revenue : Rs. 2.2 Lakhs/Months
Arun started this blog in 2007. It mainly deals with Indian business and start-ups.
Now since you have finished reading about the top Indian bloggers, its time that you start working on your blog so that I may add your name to the above list. All the best.
Oh! wait wait wait. I just forgot to say something:
The longer you stick to your blog, when the going gets difficult, the better the chances are that you will quit your job.
