When you're starting a brand new blog it is important that you know what you want to write about. This can be many things or just a few of many things.  You have so much to choose from! Let's just make something clear first. I did not know what niche to pick when I started. I had too many things that interested me so I wanted to write about all of them. But the longer I have my blog the more I see how important it is to focus on one niche.  The longer I blog the more I am starting to focus on self-improvement (personal development) niche but I also love to give away free blogging tips...

Today, you will learn all about starting a blog. And not just any blog. I will show you, step-by-step, how to start a profitable blog. A blog that's a success from day one.  Let's just make something clear first. I'm not trying to be the know it all, far from it. To be completely honest, my blog was NOT the kind of blog that would become a success at the beginning. I've thrown myself into the blogging world without any experience whatsoever. I didn't know any bloggers nor did I have any previous knowledge. Nor did I read a proper 'how to start a blog' post that would guide me through the...

How much money exactly have I spent on blogging in one year? And what have I paid for?   This are the questions I get asked a lot. And I'm happy to share that info with you, my readers. Anytime I get the same question on more than one occasion I consider turning an answer into a post. And as much as my time allows me, I do everything in my power to post consistently (which is not much I know, I still have to finish my teachers apprenticeship before the summer comes and I'll have all the time on the world once I complete it) *EDIT July 2019: Completed! Now it's just blogging for me. Yay!  I...

So, here it is you guys, list of all the plugins I use and a reason I have them. A few members of my facebook group asked me this exact question so I decided to answer with a blog post. Why not, if I can help more people that way. I'm not going to bother you with a long introduction to this post. Just a quick few words for those of you who are new here. Right now I am one year into blogging but only got more serious about it in 2019. Yeah well, someone has to practice consistency. Haha. We all have 24 hours in a day but if you have more than one interest (I have like a million of things I...

In this post, I'll tell you about my personal experience with the greatest WordPress theme ever made - Divi. But before I dive into details let me just say a few words of how it all began. So I bought my first domain and hosting ever in March 2018. My first expense related to blogging, ever! And I was hoping it would be one of my last. After all, what do I need more? Now I have a WordPress installed, I'll find me some free plugins and for the theme, well there are thousands of free WordPress Themes out there. So my spending is probably done for this year! ...Or so I thought. You see, I've...

When I first heard of plugins after I learned a few basics about WordPress, I was honestly afraid of them. Funny, I don't even know why. I thought that this was something overly complicated because it has to do with coding. The word itself was weird to me and It just seemed so complex. I thought there will be a completely new science behind that which I will need to study. Luckily, as it turned out, my fears were totally unnecessary. All you have to know about plugins is what does a certain plugin do and how to install them (which is like a three-click job), maybe adjust one or two settings...

  So you finally decided and bought yourself a little space out of this internet ocean. Congratulations on choosing a domain, selecting a hosting company and installing WordPress! It seems like ages have passed making all of this work, doesn't it?   Well, you can certainly reward yourself with a slice of cake and a nice cup of coffee for coming this far. But after that, we've still got a lot of work to do. Now don't panic, and most certainly don't become overwhelmed, that is one of the biggest mistakes new bloggers make.   You can only do one step at a time, no more than that....

Why did I create this post?   Because I was terrified, to say the least. And I honestly think that I am not alone in this. The problem is, nobody is talking about it out loud, yet it is quite a common feeling that new bloggers experience. A part of me didn't want to publish this because it is such a personal post but I published it after all because I do want to help you find the right solution to this dilemma. A solution that is suitable for you because hey, we're all different (or should I say unique). l wished that someone could've helped me back then and encourage me but I was so afraid...

Before I even started a blog I spent most of my time reading blogging related articles, studied other people's blogs, wondering what can I do to make everything right from the very beginning and so on. Every time I read a random post I came across a bunch of unknown blogging terms I've never heard of before. Each time I thought to myself 'really?' Then I googled for a definition and continued reading the post. Until there was another term, two sentences later. I googled that one, too. And returned to my reading. This eventually started to annoy me. Not to mention how overwhelmed it made me...
