Several people have asked me about blogging – what’s the point – what should I say – do I need one – and of course how can I start one? So I thought I would offer some reasons for blogging, what they might contain and how to get started.
Why Blog?
This really depends on you… maybe you can use it as a way to communicate with friends and family or as a creative outlet for your talents. Perhaps you have extreme knowledge of a particular subject and can offer some insights to others. You may want to start a blog to enhance your business by letting the world know what your business is and what you are doing or to draw in customers. If you like to write then blogging is for you.
Starting a Blog
Getting started couldn’t be easier – within a few minutes you can set up a theme for your blog and start writing. eBlogger and the increasingly popular WordPress will lead you through this free and easy process. Sure you can pay for extras but the basics are free.
And then…
Another question I am often asked is – can I make money doing it? The answer is a resounding yes…
Get that blog started and in the next few weeks I let you know how to start earning some pennies that might grow into a bundle of cash.
