Short story, a year ago I thought it was impossible and I even almost give up in the first year running this blog. Thankfully, slow but sure the blog that I create a year ago now starts getting better and bigger.
The first year is always the hardest process to build a blog, but if you have enough patience and can pass it, you will see the result afterward, is not a guarantee but is a fact.

But yeah! How you can make your goal come true it all depends on your effort too. Here I just show you the way …
The Plan
Plan everything from the beginning, that’s the key to create a successful blog. If you don’t have a solid plan then make it first, learn and do research first.
Never get a hurry to buy this buy that before you found the solid plan for what and where you gonna bring your blog in the future. So you don’t have to waste your money and time to invest in.
Yep, investing money for good resources is great but without a better plan, it’s a joke.
My best advice is to combine something that you passionately about, … something that you really love into your plan.
So, when you start to run your blog, you will enjoy every process and do it with “fun.”
Monetizing Blog
It is also important, what your plan to monetize your blog in the future? Is it by selling your own product or service? by doing affiliate marketing or put ads on it?
That’s three most makes sense way on how to monetize a blog if you are not running a big company.
If you have a product to sell on your
Don’t have your own product to sell? no problem! you can offer products from affiliate networks such as Amazon, ShareASale, etc. There is many many other affiliate networks that you can join that suitable for your blog content.
My advice about working as an affiliate is
“For example, in this post, I will disclose that I also will recommend a product and services to you to build a better blog. You will get the right resource and I get a little commission to provide you with the right information that I have test my self to build my own blog, this blog. It may sound cheesy, but that’s the truth and it’s fair and everyone wins”
Plus, you can combine affiliate marketing with placing an Ads on your blog. Such as Google Adsense or InfoLinks etc just like what I did.

Use The Best Resource You Can Afford To Build Successful Blog
“If you want the best result, find the best resources that you can afford.”
My recommendation:
Choose self-hosted WordPress as your CMS platform. Why WordPress?
Because it’s proven very good for SEO (Search Engine Optimization) and it most used CMS platform out there for DIY blogging. It is customizable and it’s flexible.
If you know how to code, it is good but if you don’t know how to code is okay there
Use a good and fast Web Hosting to host your WordPress blog such as SiteGround
Important! Also make sure to choose the catchy name for your domain, when your domain name is short and catchy, is good for branding purpose and will easy to remember too.
Depend on the situation, eight characters are good or at least not more than ten characters. Less than eight characters domain name usually very expensive (Premium domain-name)
Pick the right WordPress Theme
You can always start with thousands of free WordPress themes. But if you looking for a premium theme that absolutely great for Search Engine Optimization, we recommend StudioPress Themes that I also use it my self for this blog.
