I found a Blog Launch Plan on Pinterest. It is titled as "What to do in your first month". So it has 31 items with 1 to 3 hours required for each task. For some tasks time assigned is way too optimistic, but I want to finish in one Saturday's morning.
Decide if blogging is right for you
No. Blogging is definitely not about me. Next.
Set big goals with realistic expectations
My website is cited on Wikipedia. A neon sign on a skyscraper is displaying my website name. In that building a big team of editors is writing articles about innovative experiments executed by our R&D team.
Find your passions
Passions?
an extreme interest in or wish for doing something, such as a hobby, activity, etc.
Cambridge Dictionary https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/passion
I have extreme interest in doing many things, but in reality I usually lie on a sofa dreaming about these things. Why are you asking about passions?
Decide on a profitable blog niche that align with your passions
Furniture making, pillows?
Actually I'm into software development, artificial intelligence, electronics, and design. So slick devices and intellectual apps.
Decide on a blog name
That is the hardest task so far. I did prepare for this one before diving into the list, because it took me many hours of searching and tasting (yes, taste your name). I'll tell a good generator for this task https://namelix.com/
- Bamboozlar
- Hightech Knight
It's also worth mentioning a generator for almost everything https://www.fantasynamegenerators.com/
- Black Yak Studio
- Grumpy Mushroom
I'm not going to reveal my name, because domain name is not purchased yet.
Purchase your domain name, sign up for hosting and install Wordpress
No. Sign up for GitHub, install Gatsby (static site generator) and use GitHub pages.
Customize your blog
It took me many days to make something decent.
- My own CSS, no frameworks, only snippets from https://www.w3schools.com/howto/
- Responsible. After every change in layout you resize your browser to test it for tablets and phones.
