Why do You want to Chase Your Blogging Passion?

Money is crucial for all people to manage their daily lives. We want to make extra income through side hustles, part-time jobs, or work-from-home. But, only a few percent of people are becoming successful in online venturing.

Despite several online-earning opportunities, many people lack proper guidance. Starting a blog is easy these days and reliable for all people, irrespective of their profession.

In 2010, I discovered a few genuine methods to make money online. But the income is not sufficient enough for living.

Therefore again in 2013, I decided to start a blog to share my experience and struggles in doing online jobs. Finally today, after 10 years of being a passionate blogger, I am making a full-time living by blogging.

I started this blog as a hobby and turned it into a professional full-time business. Along with this blog, I run an IT startup and a few other blogs in other niches. Also, I started helping job-goers, students, home-moms, content writers, and entrepreneurs in starting their blogs.

How to Monetize Your Blogging Passion?

Now, I will tell you how to turn your blog into a Lucrative Side Hustle.

Starting a blog on WordPress is super easy nowadays. You can put your blog live in a few minutes.


STEP 1: PICK A NICHE

The first step in starting a blog is to find your niche derived from your passion, hobbies, experiences, or professional expertise. Select one single niche.

STEP 2: GET A DOMAIN NAME

Proceed further to get your unique domain name. Search for a short and easy-to-remember by incorporating the niche keywords. Always get the '.com' domain extensions.

STEP 3: BUY A SHARED WEB HOSTING

Avoid confusion and get shared web hosting for your new blog. It can handle your blog traffic in its infant stage while providing cost-effective hosting solutions.

STEP 4: DOWNLOAD (or Install) WORDPRESS CMS

WordPress CMS is a free and open-source software. You can download it from wordpress.org and install it on your server.
(or)
When you buy hosting from Raj Softech Hosting Solutions, you will get a free Softaculous one-click WordPress installation feature.

STEP 5: PURCHASE WORDPRESS THEME

WordPress CMS has only one default theme. Consider buying WordPress themes suitable for blogging to enhance user experience and design layout. Hence, I suggest buying a 'Thrive Theme' to design your first blog.

STEP 6: INSTALL ESSENTIAL WP PLUGINS

Yoast SEO, Akismet, WP Litespeed Cache, WP Asset Manager, and Bunny CDN are the few essential plugins for running a successful blog.

STEP 7: DO KEYWORD RESEARCH & CREATE A CONTENT CALENDAR

After the basic setup, start doing Keyword research and competitive analysis. Prepare a content calendar that has at least 20 new blog post ideas for the next three months.

STEP 8: CREATE COMPELLING BLOG POSTS

Your blogging success hinges on your dedicated effort in producing audience-pleasing content. Create SEO-friendly long-form blog posts every time to captivate your readers.

STEP 9: APPLY SEO & PROMOTE YOUR BLOG

Learn and implement On-page SEO, Off-page SEO, and Technical SEO practices. Allocate a daily hour actively to promote your blog across various digital channels.

STEP 10: MONETIZE YOUR BLOG

Once your blog starts getting eyeballs and garners a steady inflow of traffic, explore different monetization techniques. Apply for Google Adsense or join any Affiliate Marketing program.

I have written a few blog posts on how to start a blog and monetize it. Do not forget to read the posts tagged under Blogging Category.

After you get all this stuff, you can set up your WordPress blog by yourself by watching YouTube Videos. However, I suggest hiring a WordPress developer to set up your blog initially. Since you are a newbie, you may feel overwhelmed with the information available on the Internet.
