6 Essential Steps To Find Time For Blogging – For Busy People

Kumar Gauraw

Did you know that blogging is the best way to build your brand identity? It helps you, not just in reaching out to a maximum number of people, but it is also the most effective way to get your message out to the world.

Everybody I talk to understands the value of blogging. But, the biggest challenge people have is finding time to actually do it.

Starting a blog is one thing; staying consistent, and continuing to blog regularly, is another. That is where most people give up. In fact, I have seen blogs with good community fade away because the blogger couldn’t keep up.

Premium Fully Managed WordPress Hosting By Krishna World Wide Team

Last week, I was approached by two of my good friends asking me to recommend a reliable WordPress hosting company. Since they were just getting started, I recommended BlueHost to them as a good option for beginners.

However, these people seem to have done their homework before talking to me. So, they asked, “How about going for managed WordPress hosting offered by BlueHost?”

How To Build Credibility For Your Brand Identity Through Your Blog

Kumar Gauraw

Do you use your blog as a tool for building your credibility, authority and influence?

If you haven’t thought in that direction so far, you need to start clearing your blogging misconceptions quickly and start thinking of your blog as a tool to do so.

A lot of bloggers come to blogging to make quick bucks and very soon, they fade away once they begin to realize that there is no shortcut to success. Making legitimate money has never been and will never be so easy.

DISQUS VS CommentLuv - Which Is Better Blog Commenting System For Community And Engagement
I also plan to briefly cover (due to requests from many of my readers) how you can enjoy most of the premium CommentLuv features without losing an arm and a leg.

My Story With Commenting Systems

Those who know this blog since its inception, know that I was highly motivated by Michael Hyatt (by the way, he continues to inspires me to this day).

Since he loves Evernote, I started using it as well and I continue to explore and enjoy this amazing tool. He recommended (and used) Standard WordPress Theme, I jumped onto the bandwagon (and by the way, that proved to be the best thing I did ever!). And so on…

Simple SEO Tips For Beginners, Especially For WordPress Bloggers

Kumar Gauraw

Do you think you don’t know much about SEO? You think SEO and search engine traffic is only for the pros? Well, I am going to show you how you can do it.

I decided to share a few basic things, the important ones that every website owner, every blogger should know, irrespective of their level of interest in the term “SEO”.

I chose this topic based on the number of comments and emails I received against my earlier post when I shared about SEO experts who I follow, from so many people indicating that they do not have any insights into the subject yet.

Now, running a website and not paying attention to SEO is just like having garage sale and not putting a sign on the roadside so passersby can see it. I mean, why would you create one great content after another if people couldn’t get to it?

Setting up a blog, promoting it a bit on Facebook and Google+, garnering some website traffic and then adding Google Adsense to monetize – is all about making money online, isn’t it?

Well, several months ago, a couple approached me for some guidance about making money from home without jeopardizing their visa status in the US. They were students from India here to do their Masters.
Interestingly, they introduced themselves to me in a grocery store but had been my blog readers for a while.
I asked them if they had already thought about doing something. Among other things, they made mention of making money online through blogging. And the first line in the post which I wrote, I paraphrased what they had said.
