    Does anyone else have a really hard time blogging that frequently? I've never been able to do 2 or even 1 blog post per week. Sophie how long did it take per post when you were starting out and doing 2 per week?

      You could consider taking a full day to sit back and think of writing prompts and ideas, and when it comes time to write your blog, you’ll have somewhere to start. This helps me. 🤷‍♀️

      I read a blog post saying try and get 250 consistent page views per month before getting google Adsense. I wouldn’t wait until 25k per month otherwise you will be missing out on money tbh. Depends on the agency

      @lindseycharon9179 Рік тому +1

      Totally depends on the ad agency. Google Adsense is easy to get in very early but a lot of people hold off until their traffic is higher because the ads pay you pennies and they affect the user experience.

    Hey Sophia! Great video as always, thank you 🙏 Can I ask you a few questions?
    1. Do you absolutely have to buy a theme from a third-party website? Can't you just use the ones that are available on WordPress? At least in the beginning, to save money.
    2. What should you pay attention to when purchasing a theme?
    3. You advise not to hire a web designer in the first year of blogging, but I've heard a lot of people saying that it's nearly impossible to maintain a WordPress website without help, especially if you have no experience or knowledge in web dev. What can you say about it?
    4. Can you make $10k+ a month on a blog alone? If not, what can you add to make this amount of money? E.g. Instagram, UA-cam, E-commerce, etc. I want to be a full-time content creator/influencer.
    Thank you in advance.
    Hope to hear from you soon :)
