Hi Nirmal,
Yes indeed, these are the very basic tips any beginner would need to know before they step into the blogging arena, though there is a lot more to blogging, which slowly they get to know, isn’t it? 🙂
I remember the time when I stepped into blogging, and not knowing where and how to start, I decided to go in with a free blogging platform on Blogger, and later switched to WP paid. Yes, paid is always better and has a lot many facilities as compared to the free one, about which there are really no gurantees too.
However, as a piece of advice to new bloggers, always start on a free platform for a few weeks to see whether blogging is really what you want to do. Once you are sure, then move on with a proper paid one, as I’ve seen many bloggers give up blogging soon after they started!
Thanks for sharing. Have a nice week ahead 🙂
Hi Mam,
Am very happy to see your comment on my blog after a looooooooooooooong time mam. Anyway thanks for your comment.
Ok. Now come to the point. I agree with your comment mam. New bloggers are always very fast in the sense of earning money within the small span of time. Earning money from online at short span is not possible even for a problogger. My advice is also to use blogspot to promote their blog for getting ideas.
Hope to see u again mam.

Hi Nitin,
Thanks for your appreciation. You don’t bother about Google and don’t see other websites, whether the article we writing should be on other site or not. Just write the article what you think and what you know, that’s all.
Post your article regularly, fix the timing interval for your article posting, make comments on other blogs, register your site to google webmaster & bing webmaster, ping your site often, utilize social media to get traffic, etc… If you have any doubts, just send a mail to nirmal@classiblogger.com.
