Hey, congratulation! for your decision but wait a moment do you know that in everything in life there are ups and downs.

Planning is the most important part of any successful business, once you have the right plan you will defiantly be on the right lane, if you just jump into a business without having the background of it then you will be got drown in it, blogging is a for passion yes, but it is my business too. I want to educate you on the 10 most important things to do before starting a blog. I called it the 10 principles of a blog. The 10 principles of a blog / How to Start blogging 1: Blog about what you know best The most mistake people made in blogging is choosing a niche or topic there know nothing about all in the name of there are going to make research on Google. Sorry my friend if you are thinking about that, then you should properly have another thought because your chance of making it is 10 percent of 100. When you blog about your favorite topic, what you enjoy doing most then blogging becomes fun for you, and anything you do that you find less stress in doing, you will agree with me that you put in all your best effort to achieve your goals. Use these words always More readers more Money. 2: Don’t start blogging on free platforms ? Most people do search on Google about “how to start a blog for free and make money from it”. Yes you can make money from a free blog but let me ask this questions, Is that your business? Do you have total control over the blog? Honestly, the answer is Big NO. Something you don’t have total control of, it can go down any time all your hard work over the past years will just wipe off just like that, of that is the kind of business you are looking forward to having then sorry to say this friend Making Money For Blog is not your way. It is better to own a blog you can control every bit of it. That is your business, your Blog… 3: se a ‘Top-level domain’ ? First of what do you understand by the word domain? A domain is just a name used to identify a website, it is the most important part of a website, let us a take an example when a baby is born if the parent doesn’t give the baby a name. Then how can you call that baby when he or she grows up. That’s how a domain work. By Definition: In computer terminology: A domain name is an identification string that defines a realm of administrative autonomy, authority or control within the Internet. mast read here on godaddy.com 10 tips for choose the perfect domain name 4: Do not be a copy and paste blogger Each blog post is an opportunity to generate new commands. Once a visitor’s finds your blog this opens the [Door to them wanting to learn more] You should know your audience because if the content on your blog is not attractive to your targeted audience or readers, sorry my friend, as you are never going to convert all of that readers into leads and customers for your business. On a second thought if your readers discover where you copying your content from, tell me what is stopping them from going to the direct source to get the information which you promised to delivered. 5: Create your own voice If you want to become a professional blogger or you want to make money blogging, you will have to be unique. Uniqueness is the key for every successful blogger, create your own voice. The creativity of a blogger attracts more readers to the blog. If you are different from others, you have your own voice, you stand out in the crowd defiantly you will have your own flowers. And your followers are your money. Don’t forget this More readers more Money. 6: Be open to research There is no one that is an island of knowledge, once you always do your research you become equipped with the latest information in your field, you will know what is trending and how to compete with your competitors, you will also know what you are lacking and know the possible solution to solve the issues. Like the word I quote (if you do not inform then you are deformed) Information is the key to knowledge, as knowledge is the key to life. Always do your research successfully. Blogger Tips!!! 7: Be real Some bloggers believed in these words “Fake it till you make it”. As for me I don’t I believe in the humble truth as it is the zeal of a good mind to work in any industry. Being a blogger doesn’t mean you have to lie about what you know full well is a lie, that is what most of us do today and that is not the best. Blogging is only educative when you pass the right information at the right time that is the whole essence of blogging. 8: Be active on social media Activeness of social media is most important for your success in blogging; social media is the hangout of almost every internet user at least 80 percent of internet users are on social media. So when you are active on the website like Facebook, you have friends that you haven’t seen before, is easier for you to share your content with them and convert your friends online to your blog readers and don’t forget More readers more Money. 9: Have a budget If you don’t have a budget then you don’t have business. Your budget is your business as your business is your budget, know what you plan to spend and what you plan to get is what keep you in the game or spirit of blogging. Blogging is my hobby but is still my business so behind every successful business there is a budget. There is always a business plan he who failed to plan, plan to failed. 10: Pray The key to success in life is to pray. Pray and work, work and pray, it goes along at the same velocity except for the fact the prayer is most important in anything in life not only blogging or business.
