My Top 3 Blogging Advice

1. It’s not about being famous! It can be hard seeing all these big time bloggers and even those who actually make a living blogging and feel that you could replicate their success. This should not be the reason you blog. You should blog for you and if people follow great, if you end up being able to make it into a career great! But it should not be your number one goal!
2. Experiment! Try new things! Blogging is great for finding and trying new things! I have came across some awesome products or companies through blogging! Plus once you try something new it is always fun to share your experience with your readers!
3. Comment, Comment, Comment! This is something I am awful at. But being a great and active commenter on your favorite blogs is a great way to build community and make friends! A lot of times the blogger will even come back and visit your blog! I have met some awesome blogger through commenting! I even showcased my top commenters for my blog first birthday!

I hope this tips helped! And I loved being able to take over Kelly’s blog for the day!
