Now that your blog is up. It’s time to do blogging. In my opinion, you should keep at least ten blogs as a Blogger in hand and ready that you will be posting so that you don’t have to feel the pressure when you start.

As your blog is not that well-known and famous, you have to be precise and careful as a content writer. Your content should be free of any plagiarism, and your content should be crisp and clear. 

• Promote your blog

The last step to being a Blogger is promoting your blog and gathering as many readers as possible. The promotion of the blogs can be done by making your blog filled with SEOs s that the search engine will rank your blog above the others. The other way is to promote it through various social media platforms by yourself and your friends. So that family and friends are well known about your blogs, and they can spread the word effectively and efficiently.
