The eight questions above determine the success of every blogger. If answered correctly a blogger can earn upto seven figures on the internet. Let no one lie to you with the ‘ get rich scams’. The questions above should be the basis of your blog.
How do you ensure that you answer the questions correctly?
Let’s start with the first Question; what we blog about is not specific. It is determined by various factors around us. They could be factors or events that positively or negatively impact our lives.

Blogging has a tool empowers individuals with a tool that generates income and provides an outlet to communicate with the rest of the world. For many people, starting a blog has completely changed how they live their lives and for the better. By Yaro Starak

Yes, that’s right, a blog can be anything you want it to be. You could be having a skill e.g. Gig writing, preparing masala, Marketing, e.t.c. You can even blog about your car. You could share the events hapening round with your car. Once you present this in a captivating manner, you’ll then move to the second question.

As a blogger you should capture the attention of your readers. You should blog differently from your competitors. Retaining your blog readers is key to your success online. Present your information in the right way. They should be original and appealing.

In answering the third question, you should dig deep into your interests and explore new avenues for you to blog better. Here, consistency is of great emphasis. You should be able to stick on your blog topic without boring your audience for atleast six months. This will allow them to expect more from you. Once you deliver consistently in six months, I guarantee you that you’ll be having good traffic to your blog courtesy of your first blog readers. Once you achieve this the next question creeps into your mind.

Successful blogs all have one thing in common. They improve people’s lives. If your blog is to do the same, you have to determine what it is you can offer that can improve the lives of other people. What is your gift to the blogsphere? By Yaro Starak

You start to wonder the most suitable platform to blog on. You wonder whether to go for Type pad, Blogger, WordPress or other platforms. In answering this question some key issues must be addressed. These are:

  • Is the platform free?
  • Do they offer domain registration?
  • Running cost of the domain and blog.
  • Is it usable?

In addressing the issues above, especially for those bloggers who do not have expertise with coding in xhtml and css or even Java; they should implement blogger.com. This is because blogger offers a simple interface for newbie bloggers. To change a blogger theme is easy. You can register your Domain @ $10.00 per year without expensing yourself much. On the other hand, WordPress is also another better blogging platform. It costs $ 20.00 / year to host your domain.

Why do I recommend blogger.com to you?

This is because most people would not want to pay for something highly at first; they often like to start from low then upgrade as they progress.
Personally, I love blogger.com because of its easy to use interface. It also gives you the privilege to edit or customize their template using simple html tags. Blogger.com has both paid and free blog hosting services. Depending on what you opt to achieve you then need to select the one that suits your current and long term needs. So you need to choose and register a domain before you think of  building your blog’s readership. This should be done within the first month of your blog set up. Then, in the next five or so months you focus on marketing your blog.

Well, purchasing and registering a domain costs only $ 10.00 / year. This come in handy when you forecast to make money from your blog. This is because when it is registered in the first month it lets you have less time to worry about monetization as your blog after six months would have reputable history. During this time with the right resources, you can build links and make your blog astonishingly captivating.
Once a top internet marketer an blogger asked,

Do you pick a blog topic because of the potential for making money from it, or because you like it? Consistent output is crucial, so if you cant see yourself writing about a topic in six months don’t choose that topic. By Yaro Starak.
