How To Become A Blogger

Have you ever considered opting for a blogging career? You might have felt as if you are not cut out for a 9-5 job and we agree with that; not everyone is suitable for a 9-5 job. Your friends or people around you might have started a blogging career and are earning already. But it seems difficult to earn followers and get paid just by posting fun content. We agree that it is not easy and it may require significant effort and consistency but this effort will never go to waste.

Firstly, you need to decide what you will post about on your blog for example fashion, motivation, relationship, everyday routine, etc. If you opt for an everyday routine, it will be easier for you because then you won’t be limited to a specific topic. Ideally, try to post things that are not readily available online. You might need to be creative about this process and brainstorm your content ideas. Set a fixed time every week for brainstorming so you have content scheduled for the entire week. Secondly, you need to be consistent with your posts in the beginning. If you are in the process of increasing followers, you need to post consistently so that the relevant target audience comes across your page.

Thirdly, learn to engage with your audience so they feel that they are recognized. This adds a touch of personalization as well. However, never interact with the negative followers who are there to spread hate. Moreover, you need to act professionally if they ever approach you for paid advertisements. You need to have a fixed rate sheet so you can convey your rates according to the number of followers the other business has. A blogging career can be a full-time job but it will not be easy in the beginning. At one point, you might feel burnt out by working constantly but your salary is not fixed and depends on you at the end of the day. Your followers will be the reason why you have money at the end of the day. Learn to appreciate and be humble alongside as well.
