I created my first and only personal blog back in 2006 and it lasted 12 years. From the third year on, it was a slow and painful death, the interactions comments and visits went down to literally zero in the last three years. I had to take it out of its misery in 2018. The fact that we know about your blog from a UA-cam video and not from the blog itself says a lot about blogging nowadays.
I understand how you feel and see it. This depends on the Niche and the kind of site too. An e-commerce website that has a blog page will definitely not just die off. The truth is that many bloggers this day, combine blogging and UA-cam and embed their UA-cam videos on their blog. Works better that way.
Love the romanticized version you portrayed. The ugly truth is starting a blog in 2023 and actually making money from it is HARD! Anyone who believes otherwise will have a rude awakening. Starting a blog in 2018 is NOT the same as starting a blog in 2023.
I agree. The best way now is just having a business, getting an e-commerce website and having a blog page there. Then embed your UA-cam videos on the blog posts😢.
i’ve been binge watching your videos because i actually want to build this no matter how long it takes. i don’t want to follow you step by step to start my blog but it’s hard not to when i have no idea when i’m doing 😅 i’m trying to go slow, love your channel!
Wow! You are an excellent teacher. You make blogging a great business to do it is . 99% of people would like to start blogging but mentors and teachers to walk-in-hand them are in short supply. You are awesome!
Blogging is someone with enough patience for slow results in terms of generating visibility and organic traffic, but if you use the right tools for proper SEO, such as Moz, Ahrefs, and BlogHandy, to analyze and maintain your blogs without much knowledge about coding or SEO. Your results can be satisfactory :)
☕You just answered so many questions my mind has been spinning about. I have wanted to start a blog (become a content creator) for so many years. I've dabbled a little, but didn't have a clue what I was doing. I also was unsure if people read blogs anymore, and you just boosted my confidence. Seriously considering taking your Dreamer to Blogger course. Love your style - thanks for this info!
Thank you so much Mia! I clicked on your video just to see whether or not I want to start blogging, and boom, I'm already equiped now with all I need to start blogging haha.
I started a blog in 2018 but became SO lazy with it unfortunately and stopped posting altogether...even though I'm still paying to have my site up year after year. I'm definitely more on the introverted side, which is why I found comfort in the idea of becoming a successful blogger. Really wanting to dive back into it and finally give it 100% effort this time, plus make all of the money spent actually worth it! So happy I stumbled across your UA-cam channel today. This was encouraging to watch and I love your attitude/energy. Subscribed! :)
Hi. Mia. I'm living in NZ and Korean. I'm also doing my blogging. I think it's been a 1 and half years. Anyways I was looking for some youtube channels helping me learning English as well. I got you. I think you have some common interests with me. I will keep watching your videos. Thanks and I'm happy to find you here
I started a “lifestyle” blog with the typical categories beauty, home & garden, food & drinks etc. How would I go about IG? Like I don’t want to dress up and take photos of myself to post….not trying to be a lifestyle IG creator basically. Do I just share my blog post photo or related photo and write the excerpt with the CTA to check out the new post? Im clueless on that part.
I started a blog in 2011 and then deleted it, it was on the wrong Wordpress site that I couldn’t monetise. Anyway, I’ve started again (self hosted with blue host)
☕ thank you so much for this! really appreciate you and your words. you've truly inspired me and motivated me to start my dream and vision of being a writer/blogger. lots of love 🤎
Hi. I want to start a blog in 2024. I have been going through all your UA-cam videos and I am motivated and inspired. I would like to know how much your online blogging course costs and how long the course will take please. Thanks very much.
I am so interested in starting a blog or multiple blogs for that matter. you have the most adorable personality and I LOVE FRIENDS!!! thanks so much for this video 🥰
Thank you for encouraging me to share my first post on my wordpress e-commerce website. Keep up the good work. My first post will be up in January 2024. I already shared a welcome post but trying to understand the whole SEO stuff.
☕ Great video! I have wanted to be a writer since highschool! i am now 29 and have yet to get started. I have been thinking about it lately I need to just DO IT. so thank you. subscribed.
So I’m in the process of starting a blog. No experience whatsoever but I want to do it ! Being an introvert like you how do I blog without showing my face.? I mean I barely take pics in the first place
Great video. I was blogging. I put hours into it for 2 years. Got up to $500 a month. Then google decided to pull ads from the site and I now make $0 so I stopped writing.
Hi Mia, this might be a weird question but I'm looking to start a blog and I was wondering if I plan to write about self care for moms, or getting your kids to clean up would that be considered a parenting blog or something else?
☕️I found this video today and I am quite happy for it. I’m also not near as scared to start because I didn’t know how to even begin. Subscribed and can’t wait to get stuff started.
BLOGGING IS ALIVE! I can’t tell you how many times I’m looking for an answer to some thing…. And I find it faster in text form in a blog, and then I would have a waste of time watching 2 to 3 UA-cam videos before I heard the answer. Also, the Internet does not exist unless people are putting text onto the Internet . PERIOD. Text will always prevail. Just look at the written stories of Bible and the hieroglyphics from the ancient Egyptians.
Blogging most def is NOT alive. ChatGPT has replaced blogs and even google. Build a business and have a blog to own your content, thr game has changed.
I’ve been planning to start a blog… so many plans. I realize I’m letting my fear stand in the way. Fear, ya know, isn’t the most logical emo! Scared to put myself out here yet wanna be out there…? I like the idea of using anonymity to help get through that barrier. Might try that route.
Hey Nancy! Not at all lol, I haven't had any strategy for getting backlinks. I've just focused on community building and making connections online - that have led to backlinks :)
Hi Mia! I am thinking of starting a blog. My boyfriend recommended I start one so I can try to work from home! I was feeling very lost since I'm not sure what niche to pick (I have SO many hobbies idek what to do with myself haha). This is very inspiring and I will look into your course. Thank you! :)🤗
Good to see you back on the tube Mia, any tips for procrastination and scared to put my blog out there, I have literally been like this the last few money and keep putting my launch back all the time as so scared to put myself out there - please give me a pep talk to help me.
Hey! Amazing video, I have been thinking of starting a poetry blog I was just wondering how that would work with the search engine tips, does anybody search for that? I’m just not sure how I’d go about making that searcher friendly,
Hey Mia, I’m starting a parenting blog but I’m extremely introverted and hate putting myself out there. I too am worried about what people will think and whether it will be good enough x ❤
Hey Mia! Love your energy! I want to create a blog to educate people about the mobile bar industry but also to get more traffic to my actual mobile bar site. What is your take on my angle?
☕That's funny you said post a coffee emoji because I am trying to create a coffee blog for my coffee business. I won't say what the name of my coffee company brand is for respect to your Channel. Thank you!
☕ Hello Mia! just found your videos yesterday and I love your style!! I don't know why you don't have 1 million subscribers but that's good news for me because it would be easier for you to connect with your few audience right now😅 I'm about to start my own web design blog and I do expect to not get any views for some time, but of course I want to feel like I'm moving forward, roughly how long would it take for me start seeing some results?
Hey lovely! Ahh thank you! That means SO much to me! How kind! 🥰 When you launch your blog, write 5-10 value-packed blog posts (SEO optimized) and start driving traffic from Pinterest! That's the easiest way to start generating traffic/page views! I do have a video on my channel all about Pinterest if you want to check that one out! ❤️ Good luck!
Please tell me you're going to start a blog and you watch FRIENDS? 😅😍
YES TO BOTH!! I started a blog and still watching FRIENDS.
I just binged the entire season a few months ago and I am starting a blog because of your video!
@@geemcdee yay!! this makes me SO SO happy! 🥰
@@shedreamsallday Listening to your Webinar as we "speak". :)
I am watching this video and watching FRIENDS at the same time OMG! I didn't see this coming that you're going to mention FRIENDS. Wow
