Blogging Basics for a Beginner
We are all beginners somewhere, at some point in life. Today, I can know a lot about Pinterest or Blogging, compared to, say, mailchimp. A beginner starts their blog with enthusiasm only to see it fade away later. But what if I told you that blogging is so much more than journaling?
In fact, they can earn a good amount and help each other grow. So you ask me how? Let me dive into this with all the knowledge I have.
My knowledge is based on research, which I do a lot. And, I have also taken classes online.

WHAT EVERY BLOG BEGINNER SHOULD KNOW
I have explained here, how to start a blog, in case you want to read.
So now that you have a blog, what’s next? Is it okay to just talk about weight loss or do we need something more?
So, to be clear, your blog can be:
Hobby
way to win
Both
I used to blog just as a hobby, for years. It’s only recently that I started to “earn” a bit too, through blogging. This is another great topic that I will cover later if you all want.
So back to what the beginning blogger needs to know. There are four things listed below that need your attention more than you think.
SEO
Delighted
social media
Facebook groups
SEO
When I started blogging, I didn’t even know what SEO was. Know what it is? It stands for “Search Engine Optimization” Generally speaking, it means that your page appears when searched on Google. No, easy, but not too hard. It will take a bit of time to master though, like anything else of course.
DELIGHTED
Your content must be good enough to keep readers coming back to your blog. Even if you are writing fiction, the content must be of quality. As they say, content is king. There must be a reason for the reader to share your blog pots or bookmark them.
SOCIAL MEDIA
Social media is an amazing way to get organic traffic to your website. Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest and Instagram are one of the main social networks. You publish a post and share the links on your social networks. That’s a smart way to increase traffic.
Although, Pinterest is not a social network. It is a search engine. And it just so happens that it’s pretty good to get organic traffic to your blog.

BLOG-HOPS
Blog hopping is an interesting way to connect with and write with other bloggers. Many bloggers share a message, many have a theme. For example: I just finished a blog contest where many bloggers wrote about the given prompts.
FB GROUPS
Now, FB groups are one of the best ways to get good traffic to your blog. But, following the rules is key.
