5 Things To Consider Before Starting A Blog by edikaniu(m): 11:44pm On Nov 10, 2014 |
Do you intend to start a blog, check out this article in order to decide on what to do. Thank me later. Blogging has become a trend in the Internet market today. Everybody wants to own a blog - whether it is personal or for professional use. Not all blogs gain the same traffic as others, most times this is as a result of lack of purpose while others is lack of focus. How do you create a successful blog? Before you start a blog, there are certain things you have to know and get yourself acquainted with. In this article, I am going to explain five (5) things you have to consider before starting a blog. 1. Why Do You Want to Blog? This is a very important question you should ask yourself before starting a blog. What is your purpose for blogging? There should be a good reason for you to start up a blog. Perhaps you are a stay-at-home mom with humorous experience, and you want to share your experience with your audience - not to mention great tips about things to do with the kids and a number of worthy experience to share. You may be a professional writer who wants his/her voice to be heard. Some blog for the income it generates in order to augument their source of income. Starting a blog is a great idea as long as you have a genuine reason for blogging. Ask yourself this question, make sure you get a reasonable answer. The reason will to some extent serve as a driving force to stay focus and be successful. NOTE You should not start a blog with the sole aim of making money. Do not plan to get famous immediately, it is a gradual process. Not all traffic are genuine, a large traffic does not come overnight.

There are millions of bloggers all over the world blogging on different topics hence, when you choose a particular niche, not only do you need to let your personality be your guide, but you also have to let your blog’s topic/content shine like a diamond in the rough. Stand out, be unique but also understand your audience and write for them. 3. Choose the Right Blogging Platform There are numerous blogging platform from which you can make your choice, but before you make your decision, carry out some research to know which is better for your chosen niche. Here are some of the available and popular platforms for blogging: Blogger WordPress Tumblr Although there are other blogging platform, the above listed are the most common and popular of them all.

4. Content is KING! This is where most bloggers get it all wrong. Having a blog with great content should be the aim of any blogger. This is because the traffic to any blog increases with the number of original content in the blog's database. Blogging, building an audience of loyal readers, and gaining engagement takes time, write as often and as consistently as possible at least 2-3 times a week. The more original and useful post/articles your blog gets, the more search engine optimized your blog will be. |

Blogging can be a very profitable business especially if you are blogging for the money and can as well be so frustrating if you started wrongly. Hence, be careful before you start. |

Thank you. This is a good post on questions to ask yourself when you want to start blogging. I asked myself the same questions too before I started blogging, and from the start I determined, I was just going to blog as a form of self-expression, and I never want readers to be distracted by ads on my site. For example I share useful info on things like "What is GTBank iRefer Offer and how can you make money from it?" | http://seun.com.ng/2014/10/gtbank-irefer-offer/ |

I went into blogging to share my knowledge with Nigerians who want to go into business. www.aidwealth.com. Blogging is quite interesting especially when you are focused. What do you say?? |
