One of the things that are becoming more and more popular is blogs.
But there is a good reason to this as they do bring potential clients for business.
But maybe this isn’t what you are looking for, so we are going to talk about how to start a blog.
The Building Phase
This phase is when you build the base of the blog, the website.
If you haven’t already, go read through the blog post we made about building websites. This will greatly help you for this phase. Also, you can check out this YouTube video that goes into full depth about building a blog website. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BhltwjuiEk4&t=5073s
After you have built the base, that is when you can start building the structure of you blog website.
The Structure Phase
Now you have a platform to post on, post!
Blog websites are often a single niche, but it never hurts to be different.
If you are going to stick to a single niche, make sure there is plenty to talk about.
If you are wanting to do the same thing as us, posting once a week, make sure you have your ideas prepared.
The Consistency Phase
When you feel the niche has been established, decide how often you want to post.
If your goal for the blog is to simply post about your ideas then a schedule isn’t necessary. But, if you goal for the blog is to reach more people i.e. clients then you will want to consider a schedule.
You don’t have to post everyday of the week, once a week is fine. In fact, most of the big blog websites only post once a week.
The Improvement Phase
Now you have actually started posting, it’s time to make you post more professional.
Research into other blog websites, see the format of their post, and use some of it.
Conclusion
Make sure you have a platform to put your posts on.
Understand what you are going to post about.
Improve your skills!
