Celebrating 1 Year of Inconsistent Blogging!

Its already been a year since I wrote my very first post Hello! What Niche? on April 1st and my follow up post the next day with No April Fool Here... wow. What momentum I had... blogging daily.

Where's the Momentum..

Ugh... 6 months ago when I started this blog I would stay up all night just to write a post knowing I had work the next day. I was excited and motivated and losing sleep didn't matter.

But sleep deprivation catches up with you and suddenly you find that its been 3 days since your fingers have been near a keyboard and you haven't even been promoting the last post you wrote on social media like you should.

You go from 2-3 posts a week to maybe 1 post a week to hoping that you get a post up. Then in walks the guilt, stage left.

Lets not forget about the dreaded question.. What am I going to write about?! As a blogger, we know that quality content is key if you want to keep your readers- reading. Your blog is nothing without content. For those of us who don't have a niche, this can be an even bigger issue.

What will my next post be about? Should I just review a product? Maybe I should make something, cook something, or buy something and tell people how I did it... Is this a blog or an online journal?
To monetize or not to monetize... that is the question (Sorry, I couldn't resist)

If you have felt this way about blogging or you feel this way now... know that you are in great company. It doesn't make you a bad blogger, its just like anything else you do in life. Don't force it. When it's suppose to happen, it will.

I've been writing...

It's been 3 months since I posted my very first blog post - Hello! What Niche? and its been a cool journey so far. I've reached several milestones in this short time...

No April Fool Here

Oh, what a day!

What a way to kick off the month. New blog, so much to learn so much to do. Lets get right to it..

The research continues. So the blog has been created, templates set, layout adjusted, background and colors tweaked, so now what? How do we get people to see all the hard work I'm putting into this? How do I share my content with the world?

Time to promote my blog! Some call it marketing, some call it submitting. The way I see it, its a coming out party for your blog. Its your way of saying Hey! I'm here. Read this!
