NO Easy To Make Money -
Most of the newbies in
blogging things that making money from your blog is a very easy process. You
just need to get approved by any AdSense network or sell an affiliate product
and you will be making money in a few months after starting a blog but it's a misconception that everyone has
You need to learn more
things. To learn that You have to invest your time. And put a lot of effort
into it.
At the initial stage,
you have to put your maximum effort as much as you can so that to get the
maximum results in beginning, the result means not just by monetary benefits it
means the knowledge and experience you out it.
You can't learn blogging
by just buying courses over and over, blogging is all about practicality, the
more your practice or implement the better you will be over time.
Blogging is all about driving traffic to your blog and wisely using the traffic to make money out of it by selling your product or service or by affiliate marketing or through ads.
You can only be
successful in blogger if you know to drive traffic to your blog. To learn those
techniques it requires experience. By continuously practicing it over a period
of time you will know how to drive traffic
5. You Will Not Learn Everything From Courses -
As I already mentioned,
courses, not just everything for you and you will learn only basic things in
the courses and no matter how many courses are to taking, you will learn almost
the same thing in every course.
One of my own personal
experience that, I have faced that I've taken two courses of blogging and what I
see is, both courses contains almost the same things, not exactly the same but
an almost similar thing.
When I actually start
blogging then I realized that this is totally different as you are assumed.
But when you actually Implement that you find it so difficult to smooth. Nothing that you need to learn from yourself. No, one can teach you unless you person who does research and all the things.
6.
Keyword
research -
Keyword research is a a very important process to perform before start writing your blog post.
Most of the beginner
bloggers ignore that thing, they think that by just providing valuable content
is enough to rank in google search engines and can able to drive massive
traffic.
But, you will not rank
on google search engine unless you add your targetted keyword and make your
blog post SEO friendly.

The keyword plays an
important role if you want to rank your blog post on Google or any other search
engine.
If you don't add
keywords to your blog post then google bots will not able to identify your blog
type or topic and hence you will not rank on google
7. Consistency -
Staying consistent, you
might be heard from every blogger but do you know why people cant be
consistent?
Mostly, it’s just
because they don’t find valuable and quality content to write on it or lazy to
write content.
If you are lazy, then I
can’t do anything but if find a lack of quality content ideas then we can solve
that.
Stop focusing on quality
- Because at the initial stage no one will read your blog except you unless you
have experienced blogging before, this is the harsh truth. So better be
quantitative rather than finding and wasting time on quality content ideas
Quantity content will
automatically change into quality content as you started getting more
experience.
8.
Using
social media wisely -
Do you know that you
will not get traffic from google at the initial stage?
Yes you heard
right
Because as you are a
newbie google will not trust your blog post and don’t rank your blog.
It takes time to build
trust and as your site become older with proper SEO then you will have a chance
to rank on google
But social media is not
like that, you will get traffic from it, and no matter whether your advance
blogger or a new blogger
As you start blogging,
you have created your social media handle on social media especially the
link-sharing platforms like Facebook, Pinterest, Linkedin, Twitter, etc.
You have to share your
content on it regularly and when every you publish your new blog post you have
to share on those platforms and if you are consistent enough on those platforms then
you can drive massive amounts of traffic from those social platforms.
But while sharing your link on the platforms you should be careful and you don't have to violate the platform's privacy, I have experienced it.
