"Life's a b*tch, and then you blog". That famous quote was created by one of my favorite bloggers and one of the most successful bloggers period. Necole Bitchie. She was recently featured in a two page spread in Ebony Magazine's March issue chronicling her struggles and her rise to success. Necole began blogging when she was 26years old after the death of both of her parents and dropping out of two colleges. At the lowest point in her life she found refuge in blogging and was smart enough to turn it into a business through featuring various advertisement on her site and even creating media kits for companies to feature advertisements on her blog. Today www.necolebitchie.com has an estimated 3.2 million monthly visitors and Necole supports herself off of the soul income of the site which is at minimum in the six-figure range. Not only that but she is capitalizing on the "Bitchie Brand" through Bitchie TV and an upcoming clothing line. Necole is a young African-American successful woman with an edge, and despite her "Bitchie" alter-ego, through the various interviews I've read and listened to she seems extremely humble and sweet.
