Why should you start a blog?

So, have it came across your mind on why should you start a blog? 

There are many different reasons why you may want to start a blog. I started my blog basically as a hobby, and it all started from there! There are others who start their blog as a way to make money right from the very beginning, but that’s not a good idea. When you first start blogging, it should be because you enjoy it.

Many people start blogs for all kinds of reasons. Honestly, there is no right or wrong answer why you should start being a blogger.

Below are reasons/ideas you may want to think about while starting a blog.

 1. Be apart of an community: I have met a lot of people through my blog. And, I also enjoy all the feedback from readers and blog friends that I’ve made over time. Being able to connect, meet, and learn from others is one of the biggest positives of blogging.

    2. Grow: Being a blogger can help you grow in so many ways. You will become even more determined in the topics that you enjoy. You will constantly learn, meet new people, and experience new things.

3. Have Fun: If you are into blogging like myself, it will definitely be fun and satisfying for you. I like reading other blog post, finding new people to chat with, and learning new things. Blogging is a fun business to have, regardless of the subject that you are writing about. Who wouldn’t want to travel across the world with out worrying if you going to lose your job? Blogging is a hobby you can turn into your daily job.

4. Blog for others: No matter what type of blog you have, you are helping other people. Someone may be inspired by your posts, they may learn something new and different, they also may find enjoyment from reading your writing.

I like to talk about the benefits of blogging and also like giving out motivation. For me, I have learned a lot and I’m still learning until this day now. I am still educating myself about blogging, and learning how to make extra income, all just by reading other bloggers post. 

Hopefully, my blog posts help and motivate others to be great and to continue there blogging career. For example, I hope that all of my “how to” posts help motivate others to learn how to generate income, and to come up with good ideas and topics to talk about. I also hope that other bloggers purpose of being a blogger is to build a business, help others build, and catch flights more than a ride.

5. Build a business: Blogging can be a great way to improve the business you already have, or to create a business all on its own. I know plenty of successful bloggers and they all say that blogging is the best thing that has ever happened to them. I agree 💯%! While you are blogging weekly/daily it can give you different business ideas, and also help you learn so you can expand and continue to succeed. You have to brand yourself while building, like posting on all social media and mobile professional networks like https://www.linkedin.com.

Hope you got an idea what this post is about. Learn some good tips, and able to figure out why you should start a blog.

How to grow your traffic and followers

YOur future is what you make iT, so get up and make them bucks!

1. Publish high-quality blog posts and pictures – 

Your blog posts should always be high-quality and helpful. This will lead to readers coming back for more and more. I always recommend that a blog post be at least 500 words, but more is better. To check your word count you can go to https://wordcounter.net/

2. Post on Pinterest – Pinterest is one of the best traffic sources. I recommend that you post creative or just super cool images, making sure that all your topics and description are catchy. https://www.pinterest.com/

  • Post on other social media sites – These are the best social sites for bloggers to gain traffic and followers. Facebook, Twitter, Periscope, Instagram, Snapchat, Youtube, Liveme, indeed and etc.
  • Post daily – For most blogs, you should publish a blog at least 3 times out the week if you want to make money blogging. If you go months at a time without a blog post it can lead to readers forgetting about you and you will also not have to much traffic neither.

2. Make your content visible to search engines – If you want more views, you should make it as easy as possible for readers to read other blog posts of yours. You will want to make it easy for readers to find all your tabs, categories, contact information, etc. Also, I recommend including links in every single one of your blog posts, so readers can easily find related topics and more. When you add links to your blog post it give your readers more of a chance to come to your blogs because it’s detailed and interesting. You have to think as if you are one of the audience, what convinces you to always come back?

3. Create catchy titles – The title of your post is a major factor for your readers. For an example “You want to learn how i made 30k in 2 weeks? Click link in bio”. When you post titles like that, 9 x out of 10 you will get traffic, because who don’t want to know how to make 30k?

4. Network with other bloggers – Too many bloggers see other bloggers as competition. However, you should see them as friends. You may want to interact with them on social media, reach out to them via email, attend seminars, and skype or FaceTime. Be kind as well, and try to be as motivating as you can.

5. Use appropriate tags – Use tags that are relevant to the title of your blogs.

6.  Include photos – Photos make your post more visually appealing, but you can also include keywords in the Alt Image tag on the photo. Instead of using google for images you can locate royalty-free images from a site like Clipart.com.

7.  Incorporate links  – When you mention another company’s product or service in a blog post, include a direct link to that company’s page. Google like to see outbound links on your site, the company you mention may also notice your post and link back to you. Plus, the readers appreciate it when you provide resources for them, it makes it easier for them to find the things they are looking for.

8. Create Youtube Video  You can also make videos that are informative and entertaining. People seeing you physically on a video brings a lot of traffic as well. You can turn your blogs into vlogs. https://www.youtube.com/

How i made $1,509 in 6 days from an app!

There is tons of theories about making money from apps! Well i definitely found a couple apps where i was able to generate $1,509 in 6 days. I was really getting discouraged and depressed because i literally had 1 month to pay off my debt. So i started to do research, and i came across posh mark. The first couple days i didn’t make anything, so i started to give up. Then i started to do a little digging, and i was promoting all wrong!

So i figured out how to promote and market my sells app and i did! i can truly say that it came in handy a lot. Making money online is very possible, but sometimes you have to risk doing what you never thought you were going to have to do. 

So on these 3 apps, you can sell clothes, shoes, apparel, movies, jewelry, make up, i mean anything you want. It can be old, new, never used, or if you want to go out and buy something and resell it, you can do that as well. I actually went through all my items i have at home and sold things i worn once, or things i can’t fit no more because of weight gain. You also can sell stuff on offer up, they now have where you can ship your merchandise to your customers. On depop, please be advise that you get paid right away which i love, it’s my favorite sells app. On posh mark and mercari, you have to ship first, and once it’s delivered your funds go straight to your account.

These are pictures of the app! just head to your app store, download them. and start making money right away!
