Why blogging is perfect for making money as an introvert - Introvert Whisperer
Introvert Whisperer / Why blogging is perfect for making money as an introvert - Introvert Whisperer Why blogging is perfect for making money as an introvert Ugh, that natural barrier for us introverts; the one that seems to stop us from reaching our goals and dreams. Why does it exist? Does it even have to exist? Sometimes I find that Iâm creating my own barriers and making life harder for myself. But, when I found blogging, I realized I didnât have to put myself as âout thereâ as I first thought. And with this, Ive found that blogging has helped me to shoot down the stereotype that introverts canât be successful! In fact, I found blogging to be such an excellent solution to so many problems. Not only has it enabled me to start my own business, but by only needing to rely on myselfâ"for the most partâ"to be able to recharge my batteries, to give me the confidence to succeed, has been a weight off my shoulders. In this article, my aim is to show you how blogging can do the same for you and how it can earn you money, in a step by step approach. Please note: my assumption is that youâve taken the necessary steps to get your blog set up and know the niche youâre in. Step 1: No expectations A more laid-back approach to blogging can serve you very well. The key to this is to NOT expect any income from blogging for at least 6 months. This is mostly valid since generating enough traffic to your blog to provide an income doesnât happen overnight. Why so? Well, itâs difficult to establish yourself as an authority in an instant. Like most things, it takes time to provide enough value to the internet world before Google and other search engines deem your content as being viable for traffic i.e., in the form of increasing your rankings in SERPS (search engine results pages). Instead of creating instant pressure on yourself to achieve the status of being an overnight success, by taking this no expectations approach, as an introvert, Iâve found this to be highly beneficial. That fear of starting your own business neednât be as scary as you think! Step 2: Content research: easy tools to help OK, so now youâve set yourself up with a solid foundation, you need to carry out your content research. For without content, you wonât be able to make money from your blog. This is likely to be the most important part of your blogging journeyâ"content is so, so important! By targeting your content to what your audience is already looking for answers on, you fend off that feeling that you have to develop a community or be face to face networking; things that can really drive up anxiety levels as an introvert. There are two highly beneficial tools I recommend for this: Response posts Keywords Everywhere plugin Posts that respond to questions Go ahead and type in âhow to make money from a blogâ in a Google search bar. Everyoneâs results are likely to be different, but if you scroll down to the âPeople also askâ section, youâll see a bunch of suggested questions. My results are thus:
