Bloggin' Away…

I'm Bloggin' Away as a Lifestyle Blogger and Virtual Assistant.

Why trust me?

I am a regular person, just like you, who had a “secret” dream of blogging and making money from it. Why a secret? Well, how many people have you told you were going to create a blog and make money online?

Too many people do not understand blogging and how you make money from it. Most people are uncomfortable and do not want to talk about things they do not understand.

Well, I finally “took the plunge” and created my blog. And the whole world knows! My blog offers wonderful useful and entertaining information to enhance your life. I like to bring you traditional and innovative ideas about blogging, recipes, budgets, finances, and life hacks.

It’s fairly easy to start your own blog, but not as simple as most bloggers make it out to be. I will show you the straight forward way to do it and how to avoid the mistakes that I made along the way.

What are the basics that you need to start “Bloggin’ Away”?

• Computer
• Internet Connection
• Email Address
• Good Work Ethic

What do you blog about?

What are you passionate about? Is there something you already love talking about and want to share with others? If so, that’s great. If not, the following are popular general topics that work well for bloggers.

• Food/Recipes
• Sports
• Travel/Adventures
• Family
• Health
• Fitness/Yoga
• Diets (Keto, Paleo, Vegan)
• Relationships
• Motherhood
• Money/Finances
• Budgets/Coupons/Frugal Living

You won’t really know what your readers want until you start blogging. Pick your “Niche”, write a few blogs about different sub topics in your “Niche” and see what your readers are responding to. Continue to give the readers what they are responding to. Remember, it is about what your readers are telling you they want and not necessarily what you “think” they want, or need.

Think of a blog as a long conversation. Make certain you include some personal stories that relate to your blog, so your readers connect with you. And make sure that your readers walk away with something of value after reading your post.

Can I start a blog for FREE?

• You don’t own your domain name
• Monetizing limitations, like not being able to run ads
• Limited functionality
• Limited customization
• Looks unprofessional and may not be viewed as a trusted source
• And many other reasons…

How much does it cost to start a blog?

Today you can do it for a few dollars a month and this includes your domain name. This cost is for the blog hosting, which is the #1 most important investment you will make.

My recommendation because it is the best value for your money…

WordPress.org – this is the #1 platform for bloggers.

Bluehost.com – this is one of the few web hosting companies that WordPress recommends and one of the oldest web hosting companies around. And my favorite, after much research.

You can cancel risk-free for 30 days. Bluehost offers a guarantee that allows you to cancel your plan at any time during the first 30 days and get a FULL refund.
