FAQs

Let us clear some things first

DO I WORK FOR FREE?

You already know the answer to this one. But let me just repeat that for you. The answer is a big NO. Why, you may ask?
Let me make it a little simpler for you. I have a highly demanding day job. After this demanding day job, I come home most days and then work on my blog till 2AM-3AM. So you do understand the amount of work that has gone in setting up and getting the blog to where it is now. After all this effort, if someone asks you to work free, how would you feel? So let us not demean the value of me and my blog by asking me to work for free.
