There are quite a few concepts to grasp in the world of blogging. Are you aware of what you should “know” in the blogging world? I’m not a technologically savvy person by any standards. I guess that’s good and bad because it takes time for me to develop this blog. I really don’t feel that I am in a rush. What is important to me right now is to grow my blog at a good pace and more so, that you enjoy reading what I write! Then I think the rest will follow. I’m also very passionate about this, which I think helps!
It is a new area for me to learn about blogging- and I love researching and learning so win-win. I know I need to get a better understanding about the following concepts: (random order)
- Domain
- Self hosted
- SSL
- Tailwind
- Legalities
- Taxes
- Mailchimp
- Analytics
- Bluehost
- Siteground
- Cava
- Macs
- Monetising
- Blog courses
- Photos
And more… I can’t wait to learn about these items! I did not sign up to Genius Bloggers Toolkit in the end. It is too early for me to be inundated with learning at the moment from these kind of courses. I also really want to know that I get true value from any kind of course first. I’ve also seen the Elite Blogging Academy. It is quite an investment and commitment if you decide to sign up. So far, I’ve followed quite a few bloggers who blog about blogging. This seems to be a good niche to be in. Right now though, I’ve actually unsubscribed from a few as I was inundated by emails on all this “how to”.
Right now, I really want to enjoy this blogging and writing. I’m truly fascinated by how we can all connect and reach out and share. It’s a global tool. It really shows how the world is developing and how internet has transformed how we socialise. It’s also important for me to blog because this is something I really enjoy, it makes me happy and I really do not want this to become something I stress or worry about! I really recommend to enjoy every minute and moment that you spend and invest on your blog. In the end it is an investment in you!!!
I don’t know all the terms either. I don’t even know all I need to know re properly launching my Blog.
I’m thinking of taking a Blog Boost course, at the same place I took my Blog writing course, so I can learn a little bit more about getting followers and maintaining a steady growth. I also want readers, like serious readers. It’s one thing to follow me but I also desire being read. I also like comments. I like when my readers engage me and tell me their stories based on what I wrote.

I completely agree with you. And I would like to think if you get readers who are actually truly interested in what you write- and about you- then it might be worth investing in courses to learn about blogging as in the more business route- if that is the way you’d like to move forward. I know all of us are not interested in doing this blogging to end up with a business and generate money blogging. But if that is the way we want to move forward, I think it helps knowing that you need to invest more time in learning about blogging as well. But never to forget that this is to be enjoyed- blogging I mean- at least for me 😌🙏🏻- as always thank you for your comment.

I’m new to the world of blogging so thanks for sharing. At the moment, I just write, I’ve never really thought about blogging courses, infact, I did not even realise there are courses to learn how to blog. New world!
