Perhaps you could use some blogging tips from someone who has had some experience in the field. 😀
Ah yes, believe it or not, I was talking about myself. In August this year, I reached the magical 5-year blogging milestone. 😎
It’s so hard to believe I have been at it so long, and still haven’t made a fortune. I wonder if I wasn’t trying hard enough to hit that jackpot. 😳
Nah, unlike most, I am not into affiliate marketing. I'm not looking for that pot of gold. At least not here. Can you tell me where it is? 😂
That doesn’t mean I don’t want to deliver a quality blog post. So how do you create amazing content? 😱
I don’t have an exact answer, but what I am giving you today is a list of tools to help you get better at content writing. 😊
Then again, don’t try too hard, because I don’t want you to get better than me, and steal away all my readers. They are mine, and mine alone. 😜
What’s your favorite blogging tool? Do you have great blogging tips? You can always share them in a comment below. 😃

ReplyDeleteAhrefs daar moet je voor betalen en dat vind ik best wel nog een groot bedrag, daar ben ik mee gestopt.
ReplyDeleteIk gebruik alleen de gratis Keyword tool - is misschien iets uitgebreider zoeken dan de betalende versie, maar ik heb er al veel mee gevonden
DeleteWat zijn er lekker veel gratis tools! Vooral Canva gebruik ik echt dagelijks.
ReplyDeleteHandige tips! Ik gebruik Canva, Google Analytics & Unsplash veel voor mijn blog.
ReplyDeleteIk kan niet zonder Canva, ben er echt blij mee. Zit ook best wat interessants op je lijst!
