While I was thinking on what my content should be, I started to answer some of the questions that you need to answer before you start a blog, here they are:

  1. Why should you start a blog? 

    There are so many things I think I can share with all the mommies out there… and I am sure you can too! There is knowledge and ideas that I have it might be useful by you and viceversa. So you can start a blog to:

    1. Share your experiences/knowledge
    2. Make money or create a business
    3. Document a huge event, such a wedding, pregnancy, party or even your life.

  2. How can I start blogging?

    Once that you have made the decision about blogging, you need to start your research, here is what you need to have in order to start:

    1. Define your concept for blogging
    2. Decide if you want to invest on your blog
    3. Choose a platform, for example: Blogger or Bluehost (free or paid)
    4. Define a domain name, this is pretty much your brand and what will identify you, so this one is very important
    5. Install WordPress which is the most used tool from bloggers
    6. Build up your blog with nice and rich content, for me, all the steps mentioned above are pretty simple and easy, the difficult thing is to create good content so you can have followers and make your blog popular

  3. You need to find the right tools in order for you to start blogging

    When you have made the decision of blogging, you need to know that there are a lot of things involved, meaning that you have to make a little bit of research. So for tools you will need:

    1. A computer
    2. Planner
    3. Google
    4. WordPress, get to know how it works and how to manage it
    5. Pictures, you really need your blog to be as visual as it can so you can people can feel attraction to it, for this you need a good Camera or look for a website/person that provides you with pictures with quality for you to publish on your blog, this can be free or paid
    6. Dedication, time
    7. Perseverance
    8. Have fun!

  4. When should I start blogging?

    The sooner the better I will say!, Don’t let for tomorrow what you can do Today! As soon as you feel ready you can start doing it. Think this way, if you wait until you have everything you think you might need, you will waste a lot of time, specially if you have a service or product that you want to publish. Just do it!

  5. What should be my content about?

    A lot of people out there have named this as a “niche”, so its like your brand, if you want to teach or give tutorials about something focus your blog on that, however, once you start blogging I bet that you will realize that you have a lot more to share. Here are some of the contents you can choose from:

    1. Nature
    2. Food
    3. Fashion
    4. Travel
    5. Business
    6. Finance
    7. Life
    8. Costumes

  6. Where can I blog? 

    That is the most exciting thing! You can blog at any time, from anywhere, as soon you have an idea, you can start typing it or make some notes on your traditional pad and then transfer them to your Blog later. It depends of every person, here are some suggestions from my personal point of view:

    1. Look for a place where you feel comfortable
    2. If you are a person that needs silence in order to focus you will need to go to a place that is quite or you might like to hear some music to get inspired
    3. Clean your space, it does not have to be super clean, but at least clean enough so you can focus

Blogging is also a good way to express you ideas, feelings and whatever you have in your mind, you never know who might be reading you and how many people you can help with your posts. I wish you the best in your blogging journey and please let me know in the comments below how are you doing and if this post was useful to you!

See you on the next post!
