A question in every other internet surfer’s mind is, “How to start blogging”?
This post contains the answers to it in our own simple ways, as we did. No fancy things, just simple steps to learn making a website and do blogging. Four steps that we used, and probably everyone has to take are listed below.
There is no magic in choosing a blog name. Name your blog as per your approach for life, your brand, the type of blog you are going to make or the brand name. The various big companies are to choose blog name as per there business idea, or brand, but you being an independent blogger are free to use any name. My example is that of my birth place as I am attached to it a lot. Many of the unknown and different named blogs have been successful for the quality of blog as well as they having names that are a little different. The following points must be kept in mind for picking a blog name
Why do you need Blogging, Is it going to be a full time or a part time activity of yours? Is it a money making blog or a passive income source or just a hobby of yours? What’s the difference between blogging and making a website? Why did we made a website? Many such questions need answers, and we will be giving them in our own simple ways.
The strategy is to be based on the 2nd step itself. If its just a hobby part, then its okay but for passive income or generating full time job, one needs to be very serious for it.
Once your blog is made, then no worries, hard work is done and now its the seriousness of 3rd step which matters the most. Also one needs to update blogs regularly and reply to its readers promptly.

Here we are not telling any expert thing about it , but we are trying to tell about what all we did to begin blogging, when all did it started and the big question, how we started blogging.
We picked the easiest of all, the blogger from Google to begin with. Actually the idea that was given to us was that of our students.
The idea clicked into our minds , had a little idea about blogging and had a lot of material of our subject being taught by us. Then started blogging using our blogspot domain. No intentions of earning from it and just utilizing our time during breaks due to COVID 19. It proved to be a success as the junior students gave immediate responses. No idea of what is being done. Just provided a blackboard type thing to our students to learn from it during CORONA pandemic. They started following us and we found ourselves surrounded with many other ideas. Already in the field of education, we began learning more about blogging, How to earn passively, google adsense,etc. And our real journey of blogging began in a flash.
“How to blog”is very simple to answer if you want to be a blogger only out of interest and hobby of writing. Write about anything and everything in a web page, and you will become a blogger. I have that niche of writing and writing a lot and I became a blogger. But if someone wants to get constant motivation , it is only through rewards and positive motivation in many ways. Many, in fact 95% people jump into the field of blogging, only to earn money. Who doesn’t want to have a passive source of income? And blogging does that for you and all.
Let’s start answering the question of How to become a blogger through some simple steps-
Choose some blog name which suits you, your work, your aspirations. It is your domain name, your whole process of blogging is going to circulate around it, until you make it a big brand.
To begin with you can choose a free domain name from blogspot and start working. But remember if you are to fetch some monetary outcomes, blogspot is not the proper path for it. Also there are no good plugins in it and google never pay heed to the blogspot.
It is just like building a house and then decorating it. One has to make his/her blog so interesting that others may stop there and read it. Make it meaningful and not very flashy. It should have depth, rather than having everything in tits and bits.
Initial steps may begin with blogspot, with all basic features being provided without much hassle If you are good at programming and other things , there are always better options in the form of Hostgator, Bluehost, GoDaddy etc.
The topics which you like to write about may be good , but here the choice of the readers matter a lot. Most of the successful websites are on the topics of Blogging, Self care, Technology, travelling and hobbies. If you start writing about your house or a plant then only a few people in the present world will be interested in it.
Initially be very proactive in responding to comment to your reader’s so that they may feel connected to you and your blog.
You have a big list of facebook friends, what if you are not publicizing your blog? No body will know about it and no reactions you will get from your closer friends. Publicizing your blog through different means is half of the work you do for making a blog for you.
Search Engine Optimization is must for a blog to flourish. Still we are to learn the skill hence will be publishing about it in later post. Actually it is the path- way of a successful blog. Most of the topics being searched in web are through search engines and if your blog is not there in the list of search engines, then its confined only to your PC and some other platforms , not in web. Learning about it and will be publishing about it shortly.
Have a nice blogging ahead, looking forward to meet you in your blogging website.. Best wishes. Do send your blog names to me and I will be making at least 100 visits to your blog and its a promise.
All the above said processes were applied by us , some in total and some partially, to make our website. It is now one year old and is a successful one. It has received a good response and has a viewership of around 15000 within a year, which is a great achievement. The main aim of site is fulfilled, we have been able to explain our place to the world and shown our strengths. We will try posting good and useful content. Do continue to have a bonding with our website and our place called BAKLOH.
