Why is there no update on ReviewSaurus?
It’s been almost 4 months since I last posted on ReviewSaurus and almost abandoned this blog and never thought of giving an explanation to all the readers. I know that’s one mistake I did. Anyway, a recent post from one of my blogging friend Gautam made me realize that and here I am giving an explanation to what exactly I’m up to.
The reason for not blogging on ReviewSaurus -
1. Return on investment – As many of you know that I moved to chennai to start my blog network with my friend and it was then I realized completely that why the statement “time=money” is so popular. I realized then that this blog wasn’t giving me good returns as compared to the amount of time I was investing on it. Thus, I stopped posting on it.
2. Focus on business – Although, my dream of blog network never realized however we jumped into something which is my current business and that is designing wordpress themes. We now run Blog Design Studio, on which I post regularly on the topics – blogging and wordpress. I’m happy to see that blog design studio is turning out to be a great venture for us as we were fortunate to work with some great bloggers. Yaro Starak, Daniel Scocco, Kevin Muldoon, Gobala Krishnan, Kyle Eslick, Keith Dsouza and the list goes on and on and on…
3. Focus on freelance writing – I started freelance writing as well, to ensure that I could make instant money from blogging and have been doing some ghost blogging and have been writing for CloudAve – a blog sponsored by Zoho.
Will I get back on ReviewSaurus ?
Yes! And I guess you can call this as a start. I can’t promise that how many posts I’ll be able to churn out on this however, I plan to blog regularly on ReviewSaurus once again. Now, don’t ask me that why exactly I will do that – there is a long story behind all this. What I can only say is that you can again hope to see it live and fresh.
Apart from that I’ve also started a blog on Windows 7 and it’s called Unofficial Windows 7 Blog! So, if you are interested in knowing about Windows 7, feel free to subscribe to that blog as well.
I don’t know how to thank Gautam, however he has given me that opportunity again to rethink about ReviewSaurus and motivated me to start blogging on ReviewSaurus once again.

Mayank,
Great to see ReviewSaurus back in action. Your explanation is perfectly fine. All of us start blogging with some expectations are more.
You did a smart move by moving into something more profitable than just blogging. And man those were some great names there … I know three of those names are atleast 5 figure bloggers ;).
I wish you all success in your future endeavors and I know you’ll shine there as you did here :).
And next time I’m in Chennai we can meet up and discuss business possibilities ;)
