I have been blogging for 9 months now and it’s been a steep learning curve.
I struggled through the first couple of months, deleted everything and started again. I was much happier this time around but still struggled with getting traffic. I had no clue what I was doing and was lucky to get the very few page views I had.
I had set up all the social media accounts but again I didn’t really know what I was doing. Pinterest baffled me, Facebook was impossible and I’m not even going to comment on Twitter!
I knew that if I wanted to get serious about blogging I would have to educate myself.
I did not have a huge amount of money to spend on courses so I did a lot of research. I needed to find a few courses that were worth my money and my time.
I would advise you to do plenty of research before investing in a course to be as sure as possible that it’s a good fit for you. I read up on all kinds of courses, read the course content and the reviews, I also hung around blogging Facebook groups to see which courses were being discussed.
I knew my niche was a good fit for Pinterest if I could use it properly, so that is where I focused my attention.
The 3 courses that I ended up taking after a lot of reading are all super affordable. Despite not having a high price tag they are all packed with useful information and actionable tips. I want to share them with you because without them I’m not sure I would be blogging now.
I must add that I took these courses over a period of 3 months and I would never recommend trying to do everything at once. It is best to take your time over each course and implement everything before moving on.
