5 things to do before starting a blog as a beginner

Before starting a blog as a beginner, lets define what is a Blog, a Blog as a lay man can describe it is an online journal where you can showcase and advertise your products cum your services to the online community to see what you are rendering.

Before making a move on starting a blog as a beginner in the online community, becoming a blogger you have to ask yourself some questions concerning your step to achieve your aim and objectives (stated goals).

Question # 1
Why am I venturing into blogging business?

That’s answers the no 1 question, because some people will want to start a blog because he saw his friend paving way in the blogosphere, forgetting that we have individuality with different goals to be achieved, but that’s by the way if you want to venture starting a blog as a beginner, you will ask yourself what am I good in, my area of specialization, what’s my hobby e.g. Some love football, music, reading, writing etc., that’s what you are passionate in doing.

You will not get tired in what you love doing because that’s what gives you joy whenever you think about it. Be a motivator, an inspirer, a teacher and a mentor, a goal setter, an achiever, enthusiastic person, say and do, before you can overcome what you want before starting a blog as a beginner.

Question #2
Don’t be a mirror of someone that has made it in Blogging business!
Someone can be your role model and a mentor, and also a life coach and a motivator, but before thinking of starting a blog as a beginner you have to eliminate that mindset and set your own brand as an exceptional being.

That lindaikejiblog.com has made it don’t give you an avenue to buy a domain like lindaikejisblog.com, is a bad concept by thinking to that aspect as a beginner in blogging business. Be your self don’t be someone else, create your own brand so that you will be unique and exceptional amongst millions of bloggers around the blogosphere.

 

Question #3
Who is my target, and what is my target, who is my competitor?

Starting a blog as a beginner bear it in mind that you must have a competitor around your “niche” , your competitors are those people writing or delivering the kind of services you are offering or rendering. Don’t be afraid it only takes unique and genuine content to make it in starting a blog as a beginner.

Your target in starting a blog as a beginner is achieving your goal successfully, making your audience (readers) happy while coming to blog to read new updates. And growing an empire which will be remarkable.

Your competitor will make you to dust your ass, and go to your drawing board to improve your effort, “without a competitor there wouldn’t be any effort and enthusiasm to improve in achieving any productivity”.

Question #4
Time and money is of great essence.....

According to Wikipedia TIME: is indefinite continued progress of existence and events that occur in apparently irreversible succession from the past through the present to the future. We have 24hrs in the day and 168hrs in one week, so time utilization is of great importance.

If you have other things doing device a means of dividing the whole schedule into stages to suite all, but to make it, starting blog as a beginner you have to give blog your time at least 7hours.

Another important factor is money, it is another resource you can't do without, starting blog as a beginner you need funds to buy tools, host your domain, host your blog if you are using wordpress platform.


Question #5
Am I ready, let’s get started?
 

If you are through with knowing why you want to venture into blogging business, starting as a beginner, then you have to know the basic requirements, start the engine and make the car to start rolling.

One of the things to have in mind is finding a profitable niche to get started, Niche as in my own understanding is the topic in which you want to research and write about, then after you are through with finding that profitable niche you proceed in owning a Domain name, a domain name is like a name giving to a brand to make it recognized by the global community example of domain name providers are Godaddy, one, 1and1.

After the domain name you choose your hosting providers to host your domain name for typical example like HostWind, Hostgator, 1and1 etc...then look for professionals to design your web and start posting your content.
