Funky Dineva, Michelle ATLIEN

Michelle, ATLIEN of StraightfromtheA.com, took to Youtube on Wednesday to educate her followers about professional blogging, after struggle blogger Funky Dineva declared blogging is dead.

Michelle discussed why some bloggers are successful and why some people choose to work for others rather than for themselves.

Dineva, who was unceremoniously fired from the Sister Circle daytime talk show, claimed blogging was dead after he failed to monetize his own blog, funkydineva.com.

Michelle also discussed popular Instagram bloggers who have millions of ‘likes’ but no traffic to their own blogs, which makes it difficult for them to monetize their platform.

“if you’re dependent upon Instagram to pay your rent, tomorrow it may be gone,” she said.
