If only someone would pay me for clicking a picture. I wish someone would pay me to cook and eat! Sounds familiar? Have you ever said or thought something like this?
Or, considering your passion or hobby to turn into a way that makes some money and inspire others.
Starting a business and starting a blog is mostly similar and it is an incredible opportunity for you to inspire while making money for your needs. It’s easy said than done!! It is NOT easy. It is also NOT something we can’t do nor exclusively for professional.
Here’s what it takes to be a successful blogger in a future post.
Firstly, you need to know what is a blog?
A blog is just like it says- a blog about multiple topics. Starting from the motherhood which is a lifestyle to the subcategories within it are more focused. And the best part of a blog is taking and combining a few topics into one blog. Coming to subcategories the best one can do is to stick to 4-5 maximum categories.
Secondly, you need to decide what kind of blog you want to start?
Once you decide to start a specific blog say a food blog, there is a simple path to follow. At first, you’ll need to set up the actual blog and then work on a daily basis towards your goals.
Thirdly, you need to name your blog.
What a blog is about when it doesn’t even have an identity to it? You will need to name your blog. And the perfect fit for it will be as per your blog and it should be catchy or something personal to you or both. The important thing here it is that you make sure it is easy to spell. Control the urge to misspell a word or use slang in the name of the blog and avoid a stretch to it.
Fourthly, what platform to choose for blogging?
Googling platforms for blogging is a right start as it gives you plenty of options, but you’ll choose between free platforms and paid. We’ll advise to choose the self-hosted as them with the non-self-hosted blogs, your advertising & plugin options are limited, you don’t own your site and all of your hard work would be gone if the non-self hosted site closed down tomorrow.
Fifthly, pick a right theme.
Right theme is essential as what and how you want your blog feed looks alike! Select the one which is attractive and be updated.
At last but not the least, write quality content.
Choosing a catchy name and attractive theme is just a part of it, the actual thing that matters the most is presenting the right quality content. At the beginning you might face difficulties, but the good news is that we all get better in time.
If done right, blogging can be the start of your new career. So get set and go!!!!
