A Beginners Guide for Bloggers

Hey People, this article is for beginners who planning to start their own blog!

Let's get started!
If you found any mistakes in this article, I apologize before you guys start to read this.

Ok, I'm going to talk step by step.






1. Concept

First before you start a blog, you need a Concept. For example you can take a Tech blog like my one or a Fashion blog or whatever your field is. Let me mention what blogs do. Blogs are used to Describe the respective blog contents Briefly. So if you choose a field or a topic, you have to describe everything briefly and correctly. Mainly After you start it, It should be Updated once a day atleast. So you may have to sacrifice some of your time. If you are doing a blog as a profession (their are famous and successful bloggers) you have to do it without any Mistakes. You have to select your Concept first, that is the First step.

2. Selecting a Platform

Second of all you have to select a platform such as Blogger.com or Wordpress.com or there are many of them, Search n Google for more results. Or you can do it on your own server or by hiring a server from a paid service like godaddy.com or you can use free webhosting like 000webhost.com. But you may need some further knowledge about web developing and Designing for that.

3. Designing your website

Main thing after your all basics, this is a Totally Different topic when it comes to starting a blog/website. It doesn't matter how much valuable contents you have in your blog if it doesn't look nice. If you use a platform like blogger or wordpress, you can select a ready-made template or you can download a template from a website like btemplates.com or soratemplates.com If you are designing on your own, you can use JQuery, CSS and many more programming languages to improve your website design. If you need to start learning coding from the beginning, try w3schools.com or codeacademy.com

4. Check your website as a user

Once you done all three steps above, you have to check your website page by page as a user. You have to see your website in a users point of view. Every page should work properly and all buttons should be clickable. If you can you should let someone else check the website as well before you publish to the public!

5. Getting more traffic and clicks

If you don't use any advertising services for your website and we don't recommend you to start putting advertisements at the very beginning, that makes visitors boring. Just go simple and more posts on your blog at the beginning. When your blog started getting more traffic you can put ads through free services like Adsense, clicks and blogsvertise or you can let your visitors publish Ads straightaway, but you need coding knowledge and you have to be a advanced web developer. Because you are dealing with real money and their is no middleman or a dealer between you and the customer. So it can be serious if you cannot fulfil your responsibilities. So we don't prefer you to start your own system, but you can still use a free advertising method as mentioned above. Create a Facebook page and a YouTube channel and upload videos related to each post to gain more traffic. You can get 5 times more traffic if you upload videos to YouTube. If you do not have any idea how to start creating YouTube videos, check mahalo.com or howcast YouTube channels for a new idea. 

Try to get a custom domain name for a better traffic and more money actually!
