How to blog

Category

I have been blogging for a very long time and I have made lots of mistakes. Most of the mistakes, I made could have been avoided if I had a mentor or an experienced blogger to help me out when I hit a brick wall.

My vision is to see 1000’s of millennials, discover their purpose and start successful online businesses.

So, I decided to reach out to 11 expert bloggers to share their lessons learned. I asked them to share what they would do differently if they had to re-do their blog business journey all over again. And what they wish someone told them when they first started.

I would like to thank each one of them for taking the time out to help my readers learn more about how to be a better blogger.

Are you thinking of starting a blog?

Then this post is for you.

There’s a lot of noise on the internet. If you type in Google ‘How to Blog’, you will get millions of articles, which is frankly overwhelming.

So I wrote this article to show you the 5 most important things you need to consider before you start blogging.

Here are 5 things to consider:

  1. Your niche (your topic)
  2. Your tribe (your target person/audience)
  3. Blogging platform (WordPress or Blogger?)
  4. Your end goal (what does success mean to you?)
  5. Your networks (your mentor/peers)

Are you thinking of starting a blog? I have designed a short mini-course to talk you through how to start a blog, from the best blogging platform to choose, to how to design your blog. Click here to sign up.

  1. Your Niche (your topic)

The Urban Dictionary (lol) defines your niche as a “position or activity that particularly suits somebody’s talents and personality or that somebody can make his or her own”. For example, she carved out her own niche in the industry”.

I love this definition because your niche is really about you at the end of the day. Why would you want to start a blog about something you don’t care about?
