Things bloggers wish they knew before starting a blog
Posted on
New bloggers, learn from our mistakes!
My story of how I started blogging is very different to most. Many people set up a blog with the aim of being a blogger, or nowadays bloggers even start out with a business plan.
In recent years it has become totally possible to monetize a blog or website and it’s now my main source of income!
I never started this way though. I originally had an online store with a blog. I didn’t use the blog at first. But, eventually, to create more content for my website and with the aim of generating more sales and traffic in my online store, I started blogging. It was a business blog at first, but then I fell in love with blogging and it quickly took over.
Now I have a blog that makes money with a small store on the side! The tables have turned. I never set out to be a blogger. It happened because of my ecommerce business. So I made many mistakes along the way.
What I wish I knew when I started my blog!
Here are some of the things I wish I’d known or done differently when starting my blog:
