Table of Contents
According to my point of view,when a good ranking blog is suddenly affected by a Google’s algorithm update,then the blogger is forced to quit his blogging journey as he might find it difficult to bring up that blog again.That is where every website owners must be very patient and should take the necessary actions to bring their blog up again.Irrelevant of the industry only the persons with hard work and patience can achieve their goal.
Important Steps To a Newbie Blogger
Step 1 : Choosing the Right Niche
Choosing the suitable niche is the foremost thing a new blogger has to take care of.Select a niche so that you wouldn’t go scarce on that topic.For example if you are good at music then, you can start a music related blog,If you are good at cricket then,you can begin a cricket related blog.Selecting the topic is very important because at one point you must not feel that you are running out of topics to write on your blog.
Step 2 : Choosing the Right Platform to Work
Now it’s time for you to choose your blogging platform.Do not ask me which one is better out of these two,as the answer to this particular question is very complicated.I would recommend you to choose Blogspot blog if you are a newbie. WordPress would be confusing to be managed as it is only for advanced users.Setting up a WordPress blog might require you to spend some money for buying the hosting servers.If you are still interested to use wordpress with free hosting servers then check out this post on installing wordpress on free hosting.
Step 3 : Giving a Name to your Blog
It’s very important for a blog to have a short and sweet name.At the same time your blog’s name must be relevant to your niche.For example it would look inappropriate to keep name a technology blog as “cricketfever.com”.Just select the right name for your blog so that it gives the idea about the blog while reading by its name itself.
Step 4 : Setting up a Template for your Blog
Choosing the right template for your blog is very important for every blog.Video blogs can have templates with preview windows at the top,News blogs can have running updates widgets like weather,Headlines etc.But make sure that your template is not made of rainbow colors as it would look unpleasant to your readers.
Step 5 : Get set go !
You can start blogging for fun by writing posts,creating pages,adding widgets and tweaking around the settings.Yes i said for “fun” because that’s not what a professional blogger does.When you are planning to make some money out of your blog with which you are trying to produce an income source for your lifetime then, you must be little serious on blogging.
