Being a new blogger

January


This was an interesting month. I decided that I was going to do blogging. I think that blogging works better for me because I don't want to show my face or have people on my back. 


This is literally just for fun.


Anyways, I am bad at researching and when I mentioned it to my dad he said do your research. 


I started on Medium. I didn’t publish anything on there. I just signed up.


Although, when I read the reviews they were bad.


To be honest I don't really know what they were complaining about but I left that platform.


Then I watched a few youtube videos. 


They all said that WordPress was the best. But it was tricky to set up. That threw me off and I just wanted a platform like Instagram where I could just write.


I guess I was impatient.


So someone said on a video 'if you are not trying to be a full-time blogger than blogger is a good platform'. I read some other reviews about it and decided to sign up. 


It was weird and kinda scary and I still don't really know what I am doing but oh well.


Towards the end of January, I watched some videos on how to maintain the blog and like how to establish myself.


Some said to do an introduction. However I really just wanted to publish the first blog I wrote witch was exams during a worldwide pandemic (https://dailykiara.blogspot.com/2021/02/exams-during-worldwide-pandemic.html).




But I thought I would. 


I posted the introduction. I was worried because I knew that it wasn’t what people wanted but I felt like it would be a good foundation.


February

I set up my Instagram. This was not difficult but I didn’t really know what I was doing. However, I thought it would be a good idea to bring more attention to my page.


7th 

I have just posted my second ever blog and first proper blog. It is weird but I am excited to see how this goes. 


I have lots of blogs lined up and read for the month. 


My main topics at the moment are...


I think more ideas will come within time and I just have to wait.


Someone said to set up a Pinterest but I don’t really get why. 


However, I do think there are some good ideas in there that I may use for my blog.


One idea that I have come across a lot is a day in life. But I am not really doing anything at the moment because we are in Lockdown.


24th

It is coming to the end of February and I now have a few more categories like…

  • Lifestyle

  • Interests 

  • Holidays 


I am not sure whether I am actually going to go ahead with the holiday’s blog but we will see.


Things are flowing a bit more and I have written quite a few blogs and I am a couple of months ahead.


The only problem is that recently I have been looking at my ideas list and I don’t want to do any of them.


I think I’ll just have to look at it on another day when I am more excited or something. 


I do have time so it doesn’t really matter.


I have also improved my scheduling plan for my blogs.


The only problem is that I think I need to stop doing, is waking up one day and saying oh I will write this and instead plan what I am writing and when I am writing it.


Anyways, my first month is basically done and I am so happy. I never expected to get as many views. I wasn’t even expecting to get one view to be honest. But I am happy and I am excited to continue this journey.
