5 [Fatal] Mistakes you

should avoid as a newbie blogger

You have started your blog for a purpose, right?

And if you have just started your blog, you are a newbie blogger

(duh!).

The “newbie blogger” status is a very crucial stage in your blogging

journey

The initial steps and

decisions you take at this stage will decide the

course of your blogging

business.

And blogging in the beginning stage is quite a

challenge.

The mistakes you make could cost

you a lot

Or even collapse your blogging career!

Let’s see some of the fatal mistakes!

#1 Don’t start a blog without a

clear plan

I wasted about 2 years of my blogging time

without any meaningful progress.

The time, money and efforts invested

in those 2 years were merely

wasted.

Just because I didn’t start with a clear plan!

If you can’t see what’s ahead you won’t be able to continue

your journey

… and you won’t be able to succeed.

If you start a blog without a

clear purpose, you will lose big time.

#2 Don’t quit your day job yet!

I understand that it will be pretty hard for you to manage your time across the

various blogging tasks while at the same time working on your day job.

But initial times are rough and the tide is usually high and

unpredictable.

You could have earned $1000 a month in client

services or product sales, and the next month it could be $100 or even

nothing.

As a newbie blogger, you have not yet established a stable

online business

If you make a decision to quit your day job just by getting excited by seeing

your 2 months’ income, you are making a mistake.

Don’t be in a rush to quit your day job, yet! Click to tweet this!

So here are 2 things:

You have to wait until your business becomes stable (financially)

Money from your day job will help cover

your blogging expenses, initially

#3 Don’t ignore SEO

Newbie bloggers often think SEO is scary

Unexpected search engine updates make it quite hard to

keep up!

But with SEO, the basics are always

the same.

If you create high quality, useful content, you will be good

to go.

You should be aware of the on-page SEO techniques, keyword research,

and stuff like that.

Do not ignore SEO

just because you are a newbie

Do not convince yourself that you will learn SEO at

a later time.

#4 Stop creating value-less content

Every piece of value-less content you

publish is like garbage you add-on to your

site.

And you will come back later to delete it or update

it.

And you will come back later to delete it or update

it. That is waste

of time.

Check and improve the quality of your content BEFORE

publishing

#5 Don’t ignore networking

With blogging it never is a one man/woman show.

With blogging it never is a one man/woman show.

You need people.

If you neglect to make

contacts you are missing out

big.

And the earlier you start connecting

with people, the faster will be your blog’s

growth.

Blog commenting and guest blogging are

smart ways to build connections.
