A lot of blogger's make money, have giveaways, have sponsors, display advertisements, have linky parties, share posts by other bloggers. There is daily blog maintenance, which includes pinning a post, sharing posts on google +, facebook, twitter and instagram. One can track pageviews, subscribers, and followers.
What topics should we write about? Who is our audience? Should we include pictures? Do we need catch words and phrases to promote our blog? The more I read online, the more questions I have. Of course, it is normal to be overwhelmed when learning something new. Some days the reading leads to more learning, and other days are a loss with only more questions. I have to be careful not to get lost in the computer tunnel and say hello and feed my family, let the dogs out, and such.
With time and reading skills, anyone can be a self-taught social media guru. With the search engines and generous people sharing their information and tips online daily, the information needed is out there. I look forward to continuing my online education on how to blog effectively. I am so glad it's not up to me to find words, thoughts, ideas, and content. I am just the deliverer in this position, and I work for a godly women with great writing skills.
I look forward to traveling this learning journey and using it to minister to others with a terrific church leader, Kat Cannon. If you want to read some of her stuff you can go to R.E.A.L. Women's Rants and Raves. You may just find her blog on Pinterest or Facebook. That, my friend, is progress and didn't just happen. You are invited to read my stuff too, and I hope to use my new found skills to better my blog also.
May you be inspired, and all tips, comments and advice is welcomed!
