Hello everybody!
If you are looking to start a blog, I have a few resources that I use that have really helped me. I have actually read and done more, but these are by far my favorite resources for new bloggers.
This post contains affiliate links for your convenience.
Please see my full disclosure policy HERE.
Building a Framework
The very first blogging book I ever bought was Building a Framework by Abby Lawson. This is a great book for beginning bloggers, or for bloggers who want to move up to turning their passion into a profitable business. It came so highly recommended by EVERY single blogger I knew and respected. And they were right, totally worth it. Abby does a great job laying out in step-by-step format how to set up your blog and it’s a great general overview on everything blog-related.
Affiliate Marketing for Bloggers
After I had been blogging a bit, I kept hearing about Affiliate Marketing for Bloggers by Tasha Agruso of Designer Trapped int a Lawyers Body. She’s been a longtime favorite of mine, and this book is key if you want to start making money off affiliate sells. I am still working through this book but can already see a huge difference in click rate. This is a great book for beginners too, it will save you a lot of time later to go ahead and implement these strategies from the get-go. Believe me, haha.
Standing Out
Another book I recommend is Standing Out by Jenna LaFevor. I actually won this book at her online launch party another blogger was hosting. It is also a great overview on how to start a blog.
Restore 316 Designs
My lovely new theme is courtesy of Restore 316 Designs. They are another company that came highly recommend by other bloggers. I finally made the switch and my blog looks so much more professional now. I am running “Divine” theme, but they have a great gallery if you want to browse their themes.
So, are you thinking of starting a blog? I’d love to help you get started, just reach out and ask.
Thanks so much for reading and let me know if you have any questions!
