Hey y’all! I’m excited to begin my Summer Blogging Series. Each week, I’ll share some tips and tricks to blogging. I’m no expert, but I have learned a thing or two in the past year and a half of blogging the hard way and would love to spare y’all the stress! So without further ado…
Welcome back! We’ve picked a theme and started our blog, so now it’s time to keep our new readers hooked and coming back to visit. Here are the top ten things to keep in mind…
Now that we learned how to start a self-hosted WordPress blog, let’s make it visually pleasing.
Disclaimer: The aesthetic I gravitate towards is clean and white. This way, your fashion images are the focal point of the site. I picked these because they are ready-made themes and take little to no knowledge of coding or HTML. Just load it onto your site and begin blogging. I also picked all of my themes from Themeforest. I have no affiliation with them and earn no commission from referrals. I simply feel that a lot of theme providers can rip you off, but Themeforest is affordable (under $50 a theme) and reliable. Simply click on the name of the theme to purchase or on the image to see a live preview of it.
There are a million ways to start a blog. In my experience, this is the easiest (and cheapest) option to begin a self-hosted blog. There are countless articles debating WordPress and Blogger. Trust me… you want WordPress.
Hey y’all… I’m back again with another installment of my Summer Blogging Series. This week, I have compiled every single app I use to trick my readers into thinking I’m not a hot mess 😉 Confession time: I’m not naturally tan, organized, or even a great speller. And fabulous lighting is tough to find sometimes! (Cue Hannah Montana’s Nobody’s Perfect) So thank goodness for modern technology!
