12 major mistakes you should avoid in your blogging journey .

Hi buddy, how are you? 🧋

So in today's Blog, we are going to discuss about some mistakes which we all made in the initial time of the blogging. I am going to mention 12 mistakes which I made in my blogging career and those are the most common mistakes.

I had made countless blunders with the first blog. Still, I am happy because I have learnt something new with every mistake, and now, I can share them with you. I have listed my blunders below.

1. Choose a Profitable Niche:

What do I mean by a Profitable Niche? The more profitable niche you choose, the more you will earn. There are several ways to make from a blog—for instance, Google Adsense, Sponsors, Affiliate Marketing, Sponsor Articles, Brand Collaboration, etc. But not every niche can earn from the methods mentioned above. For Eg, a movie downloading website can not earn from Google Adsense. So choose a niche which help you to get profit.

2. Do not Copy Content from Other Websites:

This is the huge blunder I made when I was new in this industry. And, I do not want you to make the same mistake. Do not ever copy content from your competitor's site. Moreover, Google will not rank your website. As a result, you will not be able to earn.

3. Do not Apply Everything Simultaneously:

It could be possible that you have planned different strategies for your blog. But in a rush, you apply every approach without even waiting for the results. Apply techniques to your site by giving them time to show results and analyze them properly.

4. Give Time to Your Learning

As we all know, learning takes time. Do not try to learn everything on the same day. Your knowledge would not be helpful unless you implement it on your blog or whatever you are doing. You will not learn everything quickly; it will take time to understand the whole process. Be patient.

5. Do Not Quit, If You Are Not Getting Results.

Yes, it had happened to one of my friend. But due to dedication and passion, he was able to keep himself in the game. In first 4-5 months he didn't get a proper traffic. But still, he was writing because he knew one day he would beat his competitors as well. You will not believe he had ranked his article on Google's first page under 5 minutes the span after publishing.

6. You Should Not Compare Your Blog with Someone's Else Blog

I said, do not compare your one-month-old blog with a one-year-old blog. You will not grow your blog if you give attention to someone else's blog just because he is getting traffic and you're not. Focus on your blog and take the necessary actions to grow it. Implement hard.

7. Do Not Spam

Sometimes, to bring more traffic to the blog, we usually spam the blog URL on several social media platforms. And, as a result, we get a disheartening ban from social media. In my case, I was spamming my blog URL in a Facebook group, and unfortunately, Facebook banned my domain from their platform. So, the next time, I was not able to get traffic from Facebook anymore.

8. Be Consistent!

Take a paper and write "Be Consistent" several times. Trust me! If you follow this quote. Your blog is going to be super successful. Consistency is the key to success. According to me, a newbie blogger should write at least 100 blogs for continuous 100 days. Remember the point when I said, write all the topics in one place, and find all the topics in your niche in advance. Mark my words, you will not face any content shortage issue.

9. Optimum Utilization of Resources

Make profiles on the name of your blog and optimize it accordingly. Promote it like a brand; tell it to your friends, family, colleagues. Utilize all the resources present on the internet, whether it is social media, forums, and more. You will be able to make it successful.

10. Learning is the Most Important Thing

I am thankful that I have not stopped learning in the early stages of blogging. But still, I am sharing it because few people just start their blog and do not discover other tactics and strategies to grow their blog. Remember one thing, growth is essential. If you are not learning, you are learning. Learn something new every day.

12. Implement Properly

As I said above, learning is essential. The next important step which comes after learning is implementing what you have learned. If you are only busy learning and not implementing it. Then, buddy, that knowledge is just a theory for you unless you practically try it.

No, the mistakes are countless. But these were the same mistakes I wanted to highlight. Do not be afraid of making mistakes.
