Running any type of blog is the closest thing you can get to starting your own business, with other people working for you, managing clients, inventory, and so on.  Each also encounters points that the owner(s) feel that they aren’t doing enough to get the company (blog in this case), advancing to a point that they want to see it.  

You need to realize that all businesses, whether online, offline, or both online and offline, encounter points where others have shamed them so much, for creating products or services that no one wants to use or purchase.  At this point, as shown through history, a few companies stop producing the quality products that they once produced, or continue to be in operation, hoping that they have just hit a downturn in customers and will eventually bounce back to pre-event status.  

No matter what happens to your blog, even if something happens with the server and you lose all your information, remember that the most important thing to remember is that you will be able to recover even if you did lose thousands of hours of work.  The dedication that you put into recovering from whatever disaster - whether a downturn in traffic, negative comments (spread throughout the web), or events in your personal life - may even result in your blog or business coming out even stronger and better than ever before.
