Starting a blog is a great way to share your experiences, expertise, and ideas with the world. You may be the person that friends and family reach out to about a certain topic.

They may start asking you questions and before you know it, you’ve spent 30 minutes helping them. If you’ve experienced this, you could definitely monetize your knowledge and experience with a blog.

When I started my blog 4 years ago that’s exactly how it went. People start asking me how I was able to quit my corporate job and be home with my children. So, I began sharing my tips on how to make money from home as a stay at home mom. In a few months I was making $1,000+ a month from my blog. Now, 4 years later I’m making well over $5,000 a month from this blog and it’s associated income streams. All while raising babies, and doing this part time.

Sharing what you know around a specific topic on a blog, will allow you to reach so many more people with your message. Whether your goal is to inspire, educate or move people to action, starting a blog may just be the perfect route for you.

Blogging can be just a creative outlet for you to share your life with the world or it can be a source of income. With practice, consistency, and the right tools, it can actually become a profitable online business.

Yes, you truly can make money blogging as a career, but it won’t happen overnight. If you want to learn how to make money from a blog the right way, let me show you how!

Should you Start a Blog in 2023?

The short answer is, yes! Having a blog is a great way to house all of your online endeavors. It’s important to have a headquarters for your brand and a way for your customers to support you.

Blogging as a full time career is a great option if you want a flexible way to make money from home and be your own boss too. A blogging career allows you to have more time for your family and friends by creating your own paycheck, choosing your own schedule, and being able to work, when and where you want.

These have been my favorite things about blogging. But I’ve also been able to do something I love each and every day while helping others through sharing my journey. That has been the most fulfilling part.

You can continue reading below or watch the video explanation here:

1. Choose a Blog Niche

One of the most commonly asked questions I get about blogging is “Do I have to choose a niche?” My answer, yes and no. Let me explain. A niche blog will be a go deep about one main topic. Whereas a blog with no niche will talk about a variety of topics. There are pros and cons to both.

If you choose a niche the chances of your readers being interested in everything you post is high because they came to your site for that specific topic. It will also be easier to create a community around your niche.

On the other hand, blogging with no niche means you will have a variety of topics you discuss. That’s fine but you still need to hone your topics. An easy way to do this is by choosing a target audience and creating content for those people.

So, you’ve decided to start a blog. This is where you decide what are you going to blog about? As mentioned above, there’s likely a reason why you wanted to start blogging in the first place.

You may be a talented home cook and want to share your recipes or you may enjoy gardening and want to share your experience. 

Whatever you choose, it’s important to figure out what you want to write about before you get started. Before you start your blog, consider what you’re passionate about, what fires you up.

What do you enjoy talking about, what do other people come to you with questions about? How can you help serve others with what you know, your life experiences or your personal journey?

Figure out what it is you really love to do, talk about, teach people and make that the subject of your blog. 

However, you also want to consider whether blogging about your topic is something you can sustain for a long period of time. If you lose interest in the topic, writing about it is going to be a chore, and you’re not going to want to do the work to make your blog successful.

This is why you should have a clear goal in mind before committing to centering your blog around it.

Profitable Blog Niche Ideas

Ensuring your blog topic is popular enough to be profitable is an important step in choosing your subject. Here are a few ideas of topics that have recently seen success with blogging.

  • Personal Finance
  • Entrepreneurship
  • Fashion
  • Food
  • Health and Fitness
  • Parenting
  • Relationship
  • Beauty
  • Education
  • News

Choose a Target Audience

When deciding what to blog about, take your interests into consideration and ensure that you really love your blog topic but don’t forget about your prospective readers.

You have to determine who you are trying to reach with your blog. Figuring out your ideal audience is paramount to creating a successful blog.

You’ll want to determine who your reader is, what they do for a living, what their fears and pain points are and what they’re looking for. Sometimes it helps to give your ideal reader a name and create an entire persona for them.

This way, as you create content, you’re answering any questions, fears or concerns this one person has. Write specifically to that one person and you’ll reach countless others just like them. 

2. How to Choose a Blog Name

The best way to choose a blog name is to think about your target audience, blog topics and blog tone. Begin writing down words around these things and then look up synonyms to those words.

Use words that are descriptive and evoke a feeling. After you’ve made that list take a look at it and begin pairing words together. You can add prefixes and suffixes to words to create new words.

You’ll want to narrow your ideas down to a few options and then begin doing some research on the ideas your came up with. Make sure they are not taken by someone else, make sure the domain is available, and make sure the social media handles are available too.

Once you have a very short list of options, see what others think. Say it out loud and see how proud you feel saying it. Once it feels right, make you decision. Don’t spend too much time on this though, get the blog up.

Now, let’s consider the steps you’ll need to take to get started and then we will walk through blog setup together!

3. Choose a Blogging Platform

Depending on your goals, you may consider going with a free blogging platform. If you’re not interested in eventually earning an income from your blog, using a free platform may work best for you.

Reasons a blogger would go this route could be that they simply want to use their blog as a personal diary. Platforms like Wix and Squarespace are popular free options. They allow you a quick and easy set-up so you can begin blogging right away. 

Note: There are two versions of WordPress, one free and one paid. The free one is called WordPress.com and it is important to note that there is a difference as it can be confusing (more on that below in the hosted vs. self-hosted section) 

If your end-goal however, is to create a money-making blog, you’ll want to invest time and energy from the beginning, into a self-hosted blog to allow you the freedom to earn income and advertise as you please. 

4. Register Your Domain Name

Choosing a domain name for your blog is probably the most fun part of starting a blog. When deciding on a name for your blog you’ll want to ensure that it is easy to spell, conveys what you’re trying to get across and is relatively short and to the point.  

There’s nothing worse than hearing about a blog and going to check it out only to realize the most logical spelling of it has been replaced with a quirky spelling with the number 2 in place of the word ‘to’. 

You want to create brand recognition and ensure your blog name is crystal clear, so it is important to be as concise as possible.

Additionally, a long domain name can be difficult to incorporate into social media platforms (more on that in a second) So, go for the shortest possible URL that works best for your blog in the most concise way possible. 

Ensure Your Domain Name is Available Across Social Media 

While you’re brainstorming blog names, it helps to check social media platforms (if you don’t already have them set up) to make sure your domain name is available.

You don’t necessarily have to use the exact domain name of your blog across social media, you may not even want to do that. But if you want uniformity across all platforms, do your research and make sure what you want is available on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.

Now that you’ve got your domain name chosen, it’s time to buy it! You can search for a domain name and purchase it, at the Bluehost. 

Note: If you’ve chosen to go the free blogging platform route, you may not necessarily need to purchase a domain name. The site will create one for you, it will be generic based on the blog title you entered when you set it up, but it will include the company (Wix/Squarespace) name in the URL. 

5. Purchase Blog Hosting

Choosing Hosted vs Self-Hosted Blog

As noted above, blogging platforms like Wix, Squarespace, and WordPress.com are free. They’re called a Hosted website. A Self-Hosted website allows you to store your website on a space that you purchase from the hosting company.

An easy way to think about it is, the hosted website is like renting a home from a landlord and a self-hosted website is like owning your own home.

With a Hosted website, your blog lives on the site server. You can move in your furniture and decorate the way you wish while the landlord takes care of cutting the grass and painting the outside. You also don’t have the freedom to knock down walls or add new appliances.

You’ll have a hard time monetizing your blog or creating an email list and growing your audience. Also, you don’t own your content on a hosted site. If Wix or Squarespace go out of business, there goes all of your hard work, down the drain. The hosting company has complete control over YOUR work of genius.  

With a Self-Hosted Site, you create your blog and through a hosting company store the site on space you purchased from them. This gives you full control, you own the content and the actual site. Not only will you have more control, but you’ll also have more space and storage.

This allows you to monetize your site and gives you the freedom to add extras that may not be available with a hosted site. 

The Benefits of Hosting Your Blog on Bluehost

Bluehost has proven to be one of the most reliable options available for self-hosted blogs. We’re all busy and often the only time we can find to work on our passion projects is late at night or in the early morning. Bluehost offers 24-hour support, seven days a week.

This ensures that you’re never without someone in your corner to help you along the way. Support in the blogging world is key. If you have questions on how to start your blog installation, there’s always help available.

They offer an online chat option, regular webinars, a customer service number if you’re more of a phone person and countless articles and resources on their site to help you find what you’re looking for. If you opt for Bluehost, you can even bundle in a domain name into your purchase for added cost savings. 

Ready to start your own blog? Getting started on Bluehost is easy and fast!

Here’s how to setup hosting with Bluehost: Start by clicking here to go to Bluehost (Link will open in another window so that you can continue to use the step by step directions here.)

Getting Started with Bluehost

  1. First, click the green “Get Started” button.

2. Select your plan. If you are just starting you can choose the “Basic” plan for $2.95 a month until you need more. You can always upgrade later to a plan that will accommodate your blog as it grows. Click select and the “Sign Up Now” page will appear.

3. Guess what?! Your new domain name is free. Sign up for it. Be sure you’re careful to input all your characters correctly. Check your spelling and ensure the social media handles that match this domain are available.

4. Fill in your account information. Simple.

5. Complete your payment information.

6. Now it’s time to choose your package and options. Be sure to look over the information clearly to be sure whether you want the added features that are checked off. If not, simply uncheck them.

Note: Keep in mind that once you purchase a plan, when it expires it will renew at the regular rate. It may be worth while to choose a longer plan at the introductory rate, but this will be up to you to research.

7. Create your password.

8. Your account is setup, now login.

9. Login to your new account with your new password.

10. Now let’s name your website.

11. Indicate the type of website you will be starting.

12. Choose your website theme. This will be the template for how you want your website to look.

6. Start Your WordPress Install and Setup

As noted above, Bluehost offers significant assistance to get your new blog up and running. The process is fairly straightforward so try your hand at setting it up yourself.

There’s some bootstrapping that comes with entrepreneurship and blogging is no different. You’re likely to encounter things you’ll need to research and learn more about, but don’t let that get the best of you.

Know that Bluehost has your back. You can always contact them for assistance throughout the process.

How to Connect WordPress to Bluehost

You can install WordPress with one easy click with Bluehost. They have made it really simple. Earlier we talked about WordPress.com (the free hosting platform) WordPress.org is what you’ll be using for your self-hosted blog on Bluehost. 

WordPress.org offers a large selection of templates and plugins for your website. These will help you tailor your blog to your particular tastes and needs. With the self-hosted version of WordPress, you as the user will maintain and have control over the features of your site.   

Getting Started With Bluehost One-Click WordPress Installation

Because Bluehost makes it easy with One-click WordPress installation, getting your blog up and running is simple.

WordPress Installation Basics 

After you’ve installed WordPress, there are a few ‘housekeeping’ items to take care of. When your website is set up, it populates a fake blog post and comments, you’ll want to go in and delete those.

On your WordPress Dashboard, click on Posts and delete the introductory “Hello” post and then click on Pages and delete the “Sample” page.  Do the same under the Comments tab and delete the default comment. Next, you’ll want to go to the Settings tab, and click General to set your timezone. 

Helpful WordPress Plugins You Should Install

Smush Pro WP Plugin helps to reduce image file sizes. This is important as it works to improve website speed and performance. Google Analytics is a program that will tell you all you need to know about traffic to your blog. Installing this plugin in WordPress will be very helpful in the future.

This, coupled with Search Engine Optimization (SEO) are key tools in learning how to start a money-making blog. We’ll cover monetization in Part 2 of this blog series but there are countless ways to learn the ins and outs of SEO.

7. Customize Your Blog Design  

When you use a free theme within WordPress, most are fully customizable. This helps you design your blog to your needs, tastes, and specifications.

It often takes a little trial and error and playing around with different themes and variations to find what works. WordPress makes it easy to install new themes and test them before committing to anything.

How to Start Customizing Your Free WordPress Blog Theme

To get started, in your WordPress dashboard, go to Appearance and then Customize. From here you can do several things, you can choose a new theme or customize your current theme.

On the customize screen you can change colors, general layouts like columns, your header image and whether you want your frontpage to feature all of your blog posts or a static website page that doesn’t change.

Investing in a Premium WordPress Theme

If you’re seeking more flexibility with your theme or want to incorporate features to make your blog really stand out from the sea of blogs out there, a premium WordPress theme is the way to go. There are several place to buy premium WordPress themes.

I chose 17th Avenue for my WordPress theme, as I love how clean the designs are. I have had great success with how customizable the themes are for my personal needs. 17th Avenue Designs also has a installation service that most theme designers don’t offer. They will install the theme and setup just like the demo for you. I was sold when I read done for you but the service and theme support made it a no brainer.

Themeforest is a reputable site where creators and bloggers can buy and sell themes. With several price points and options, this is a good option to find a theme that fits your style and budget. Not only is Themeforest a great place to purchase a custom theme, but it also includes a helpful community of web designers and developers. As such, finding what you need is easy and the level of support offered is top-notch.

Etsy also has some great options for themes. I love that there are are so many chic and stylish options by female entrepreneurs. Most of the Etsy sellers I’v considered also have websites outside of the platform where they offer theme support as well. Etsy is a great place to find modern themes that don’t break the bank.

While there are several facets that go into starting a blog for the first time, we’ve only just barely scratched the surface here on this post. Once you’ve decided to start a blog highlighting your experiences, or sharing your knowledge and expertise, you may want to take it a step further. There are countless ways to make money with your blog or website and in the second part of the series we’ll break down a few options and how to go about getting started.

8. Create Good Content

Now that you have your blog setup it’s time to add some content. Your content will be the reason people visit your site. Give them a reason to stay and keep coming back. But first you should start with setting up the foundation pages on your site.

  • About Me – This page should give people some insight into who you are as a person and what your blog is all about. Whatever it is that you want people to know about you and your brand, add it here.
  • Contact – Here you are giving your audience, customers and clients a place to professionally reach out to you. Often times people will want to send you an email as opposed to chatting with you on social media. Make this an option for them. If you are adding a form, be sure to list your email address separately on the page as well.
  • Work with Me – How can someone work with you? Are you accepting clients for a service you offer? Do you create sponsored content? Whatever you offer should be included on this page.
  • Resources – Be certain to give your readers some value. You can offer a free download to those subscribe to your newsletter. You can create a page of helpful links or value packed video lesson of some sort but don’t miss this opportunity to give them value!

These will be the pages people look for when they come to your site outside of enjoying your content. Make sure you create these first. After you have done that you can start adding blog posts about your niche topic.

Start a Youtube Channel

One thing you can’t ignore when it comes to content in 2023 is video! Video is taking over on social media and seems to be the preferred way for audiences to consume content. Starting a Youtube channel where you can host videos that compliment your writing is a must!

If you have a channel already, create blog post on your top videos and add them to your blog posts. If you’re no longer active on the channel, figure out how to revive the channel so that you can get the traffic to your blog from the channel.

Whatever you do, consider starting a Youtube channel to compliment your blog.

    I found you a few months ago and I must say I love your energy on YouTube and how your personality is not copied and you are alive and full of joy in helping others. Thank you for that. I too have been doing a blog and searched over and backwards to find out how to go about doing this. I must say your blog and videos are so informative no one should have any hard time comprehending the steps you have on this page. I am so excited for the upcoming new year and the content you have to release. I desire for my blog to be on leadership yet inspirational including my motherhood. I plan to invest in the knowledge needed and you do offer some extensive information. Thank you again.

    Hi Nakisha: I’m ready to start the basic foundation of my business and wanted to know if you have an affiliate link for 17thAvenueDesigns? If so, please send it to me so that we can both possibly get something!! Thanks for all of your great Youtube videos!! **That’s where I normally see you. My daughter and I have attended one of your live streams before and we’re both getting started with our blogs/Youtube channels. My daughter recently set up her theme via 17thAvenueDesigns but since she doesn’t have a “presence” yet on either Youtube, Facebook or Instagram, I had to look around for someone who does and I’m hoping that you do!**

    I just want to say thank you. I’m not a mom but I wanted to get involved in blogging for a while and came across your channel. I watched your YouTube videos and finally went for it.

    Thank you for inspiring me to give it a whirl!

First off, forget them people! Respectfully… Bu First off, forget them people! Respectfully…

But, I get it!  Most times we lack confidence worrying about other people’s opinion on this or that, but… 

- Stop trying to prove people wrong and prove yourself right! This is about you. You overcoming your fears. You finding the audacity to be great. You pursuing YOUR best life.

- Surround yourself with people that pour into you. Having the right support system is essential. It helps you ignore the noise around you. Join an online group, meetup with positive people local to you.

- Figure out the area you lack confidence in and build yourself up in that area.

- Feel the fear and do it anyway! You gotta just push through. Keep working. Keep showing up. Keep building.

Save this post and reference it when you feel self doubt creeping in.

It’s Monday and I’m prepared to have a product It’s Monday and I’m prepared to have a productive week! 

Here are a few things I do to make sure the business and the babies are setup for success:

- Write down everything I need to get done this week on Sunday. I literally do a brain dump of all the things.

- Then I prioritize these things from most important to least! …because let’s be real I wanna do everything but there’s only so much time in the day 😂 

- Then I schedule the first 3 things in my planner for Monday. I like to see it here and put in Google calendar.

- I plan, shop, and prep all my meals for the week on Sunday too. Because who got time for “What y’all wanna eat?” everyday lol 

- Lastly I’m trying to make room for IG this week because that hasn’t been a priority. But @planoly is coming in clutch for me.

So I’m implementing the strategy: if you fail to plan, you plan to fail! And I’m planning to get it done this week!!!

Share this with an entrepreneur that could use it!

When I left corporate, it was for my kids! I was When I left corporate, it was for my kids!

I was tired of paying 2 mortgages in daycare cost, working all day and only seeing them for a few hours in the evening. Then, the hassle I’d get when I needed to take off for them!

#Workingmoms don’t get enough credit!!!! It’s a JOB in itself juggling it all…..let’s not get into the last 2 years. 🙄

My plan was to make it through their daycare days, but I done got out here an built an empire!

Don’t tell me God ain’t good!!

So, yeah. I’m gonna be right here, taking care of my babies.

Working moms, stay at home moms, work at home moms, bonus moms, expectant moms…….all y’all, I see you!
