I was thinking that their are 20,000+ Tech Blogs by Indian Bloggers, and hardly only 15-20 tech blogs get 2,000 to 10,000 view in month, so what's my idea is, if we all tech bloggers will make a single blog on which we all will work together like : Some of them will add posts, some of them will edit blogs design and much more. So we can make that blog to come in top 10 blogs of india, not only that their is also a blog by AOL which is named as Tech Crunch, and it's the number 1 tech blog in whole america, also it was made for amirican tech geeks. So to simillar to that i'm also thinking to make a blog like that but with a team of good blogger, also indiblogger approves the good bloggers. So can we all tech bloggers work together on a single blog.

-Thanks Wink

I think you missed the point that Sorc made,

A blog like techcrunch or engadget takes a lot of time and dedication to build. It requires good people and a good business model. Plus teh content generally has to be original. If you want to have "How tos" you are just trying to be a replica of various user guides that exist all over internet.

Not that it cannot work , but again what exactly will you cover and how will you differentiate yourself? There are individual Indian bloggers who have made it Big , for eg Amit Agrawal who runs a site named Labnol (digital inspiration)  which talks a lot about "how to" . He works on it full time

If someone is as good as him, why would he/she join you?

I came across an online tech writer who has compiled 30 sites which pay handsomely for articles posted on their sites and blogs and the link is:

Don't get disheartened by reading the comments, i know how it feels when you are young and have all this great "the next facebook" ideas. Now about your idea of bringing all indian tech bloggers, is not a bad idea but it will never work without professional managements and some very strong guidelines. Maybe it will work in the ad-havoc way if you are doing soomething "not for profit" but it will fall apart the moment some monetary conlicts arise. The other thing is you greatly underestimated the indiblogger tech bloggers stats. In my regular blogging time i used get 70-80k views but i was still ranked like ~300 in the tech category. so indiblogger's hundreds of top tech blogs are actually quiet popular. I know i am not queit experienced like Sorcerer here to give you any great advices, but in my blogging career of 2.5 years i have seen and learned enough to understand some of the ground rules of the blogging and earning money online. i dont know about your intention of blogging, but i have a feeling that it is a little biased towards earning some side money online. Nothing bad in that, i myself started blogging from 11th standard mostly due to its financial lure. But know i think i rushed into it. But you still have time to set your mindset straight about it. First according to me posting articles based on articles and sources from other sites is not a good idea for individual blogger. The best approach is of original content, and with google's this years search engine changes it is the best option. you may feel you dont have expert knowledge about some field to write about it and it will slow your posting frequency but believe me one truly original article will sometimes bring you traffic which hundreds of other articles wont. Choose a topic research on it, work on your article's format and presentation  and post an article every 5-6 days. Plan for the long term and by the time you go to college you will earn more then you professors.And i would like to give one very important advice from my personal experience, please don't let blogging effect your academics.

@Mayur i liked your reply, but i was thinking that their are many new blogger and every one want their blog on TOP so i thaught if every new blogger will work like a team on a single blog then the blog will be really awesome ..!, but no problem, it was just an idea Laughing, and thanks for sharing your exprience.
