WHERE TO PROMOTE YOUR BLOG POSTS ONCE YOU’VE PUBLISHED THEM

October 9, 2018 45 Comments

So,

I already shared with you how you can promote your blog posts effectively in my previous posts and today I am back to tell you where you can be able to do that in order to get the most traffic to your site. Honestly, when I first started, I wrote my posts, published them and did nothing else, I guess I thought that I would get organic traffic instantly without doing anything which was so naive of me to even think like that, I needed to share my posts and share them in different platforms in order to get the best outcome and increase my blog’s traffic. So today I am here to share with you where to promote your blog posts once you’ve published them.

IT’S ALL ABOUT THE SWADDLE

August 13, 2018 33 Comments

Hey there,

So baby boy is almost 4 months old and oh my has it been a journey. I never thought sleep deprivation would feel normal. Anyway I know it will change as he gets older but I sure wish it would happen sooner. The past few months have been quite adventurous to say the least. I’ve had ups and downs, the loudest house on the block, no longer have anything to wear due to spit ups, more poopy diapers than I can count and let’s just say I have accepted that my hair literally stays unkempt for as long as I wish and nobody should and can tell me nothing. I know it’s been a while and after hearing it’s all about the swaddle and that they deliver better and longer sleeps, here is what I think about some I’ve used.

HOW TO BOOST YOUR BLOG TRAFFIC WITH PINTEREST

July 2, 2018 91 Comments

Pinterest,

A while back, I wrote about tips on using Pinterest effectively which was beginner friendly and really easy to follow. Today I’m back with another Pinterest post to help you out, you see, I used Pinterest way back before I even started blogging but all my boards were all over the place, which made it irrelevant since all they showcased were a mixture of stuff which one could deem more like a confused group of boards. It was until I started my blog that I found out you could actually use it to drive traffic to your blog. Now if you read my other post here, then you have already created an account and your boards and are ready to now move to the next step. Here is how to boost your blog traffic with pinterest.

MISTAKES MOST BLOGGERS MAKE WHEN STARTING OUT

May 31, 2018 110 Comments

Hello again,

Can you believe that it’s Thursday already? This week is really flying and makes me question whether I have done everything I had planned to for the week. So today I am back with a post about blogging and most importantly mistakes most bloggers make when starting out, by the way here are some of mine. Almost everyone wants to be a blogger these days and as much I am all for it, some tend to forget that it’s not just creating a website and letting it be, blogging is not a walk in the park but rather lots of hard work, patience and also trial and errors which open up doors to learning even more about the blogging world. So before I bore you with all my rumbling, let’s get into it and see some of the mistakes most bloggers tend to do.

THE ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF RENTING

March 13, 2018 49 Comments

Hey there,

Another week calls for another post, as you all know I just moved house and as much as it’s not further away this time, It was definitely still exhausting and frustrating. This was my fourth move, the first three were all exciting and fun since we were exploring more areas and my son was still tiny and didn’t really need daycare or nursery but after starting preschool and meeting new friends, there was no way we were going to change schools that early. I’m not saying that it’s bad to do it but I just didn’t want that for him and so finding a place nearby and close to his school was the only option. I am yet to finish unpacking and organising but this got me thinking about the advantages and disadvantages of renting.

HERE IS WHY I READ YOUR BLOG

January 9, 2018 103 Comments

Hello there,

Finally, I get to write the first post of the year. I know It’s kinda late but it’s all good so long as I do it right? Anyway where are my manners, happy new year to you all and I hope you’re all having a great start to it. Last year, I wrote a post on reasons why I don’t stay to read your blog and as much as it did really well, I also got some backlash from other readers who thought it wasn’t fair and that I was on the wrong. One may think that it would stop me from continue writing but as I wrote on that particular post, they were all my opinions and that I knew some would disagree with me and it was also totally okay if that happened, today’s post is the opposite. Here is why I read your blog.

I was asked by some of my readers what I would like to see in other blogs and what would make me stay to read them too. So these are my answers and yes people, once again I know that this might not be everyone’s cup of tea but that’s just perfect. We are all entitled to our own opinions, don’t come for me. So what exactly would be in your blog that would make me stay and read it without exiting in seconds?

1. SIMPLE LAYOUT

We all know that we shouldn’t judge a book by it’s cover but I tend to do that sometimes, it’s human nature. When it comes to a blog’s layout, it should be easy to follow and just simple. I know we all all want the most professional looking website but that can sometimes hurt your blog if you’re trying to include too many things from slides, to movable images just let it be. I will read your blog if I’m able to find something easily and fast, from your categories to your blog posts. If I can get to your about page without having to pass through other categories then I’m happy. Make your layout to be simple and easy to manoeuvre without someone having to stress about where to find your comment section or the pin it button.

So I came on here today to give you 5 reasons why your blog might fail and see if any of them apply to you.

5 reasons why your blog might fail

As I said before,

There is a lot of planning and work involved when it comes to blogging and as much as I would want to sugar coat it and say we will all make it, I can’t because that would depend on whether or not you came into it for the right reasons or not. So without rumbling anymore, let me just get into it and start with the first reason.
