How to Start a Blog as a Beginner – Simple, Practical Guide

-

 

Starting your own blog isn’t rocket science. You don’t need programming skills—just a good idea, a bit of courage, and a few free hours. If you’ve been thinking about starting a blog—either as a hobby or for professional reasons—now’s the time to go for it. In this article, we’ll walk through the process step by step, with no fluff and in plain language.

Why Start a Blog at All?

Because you have something to say. Because you want to build a community. Because you want to showcase your knowledge, your brand, or your passion. A well-built blog not only gives you credibility, but in the long term, it can also bring clients, partners, or followers.

And yes – if you do it smartly, you can even earn money from it.

First Step: What Will Your Blog Be About?

This is your starting point. Choose a topic you’re genuinely interested in. You don’t need to find a “market niche” or invent something artificial. Write about what you care about: travel, gastronomy, online marketing, book reviews, or a specific field of expertise.

What’s important is not to try writing about everything—having a clearly defined topic helps you build an audience and communicate in a focused way.

Where to Start Your Blog?

If you’re a beginner and don’t want to deal with technical stuff, choose from these:

  • WordPress.com – free, reliable, tons of templates to choose from
  • Blogger – also free, works with a Google account, quick setup
  • Wix  – lets you create visually appealing blogs, ideal for creative topics

For a professional appearance and your own domain, I recommend WordPress.org, but that requires hosting too.

Domain and Hosting: Do You Need It?

If you’re serious about it, yes. A custom web address (e.g., GustoDiParole.com) gives a much more professional impression than something like “something.wordpress.com.”

A domain and hosting give you full creative freedom: you decide how your blog looks, and what you put on it.

No algorithms, no limits — just your voice, your vision, your platform. 🌍✨

Content: What, How, and When?

There’s no blog without blog posts. Create a simple content plan—don’t overcomplicate it. Think about the questions, problems, or topics your readers might be interested in, and write them down in a list.

Tip: It’s worth writing down your first 5–10 blog post ideas before launching so your blog isn’t empty in the first weeks.

While writing, keep these in mind:

  • Use clear, SEO-friendly titles (e.g., “How to Write a Strong Blog Post as a Beginner”)
  • Format your text well – paragraphs, subheadings, bullet points
  • Use images if you can
  • Be human. Your reader isn’t a robot—they’re a person

How Will People Discover You?

Once your blog is live, don’t let it gather dust. Share your posts on your social media channels (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn – depending on the topic), join groups with similar interests, or write guest posts for other blogs.

Tip: If you have a newsletter, send your new articles to your subscribers—this is still one of the best tools for content sharing.

Which Platform to Choose?

If you want to get started quickly, choose one of these:

  • For beginners: Blogger or WordPress.com
  • For professionals, long-term: WordPress.org with your own domain
  • For design-focused bloggers: Wix or Squarespace

In Summary

Blogging isn’t rocket science – it’s not about perfect design or flawless SEO settings, but about getting started. After the first few posts, you’ll find your own voice, and if you stay consistent, the readers will come.

Don’t wait for the perfect moment – start now!

And if writing isn’t your strong suit, MarketingEveryOne can help – blog strategy, SEO-optimized content, and professional support all in one place.

Unlock Revenue with Funnels & Product Ladders

  The concept of a sales funnel has become increasingly popular in recent years, especially in the world of online marketing. But what exactly is a sales funnel, and why is it so crucial to build your entire marketing strategy around it? What Is a Sales Funnel? Simply put, a sales funnel represents the customer journey—the process by which a potential buyer moves from first hearing about your product or service to making a purchase. The funnel is called so because it visually narrows down from a broad audience at the top to a smaller, highly engaged group at the bottom who become your paying customers. When you think about sales funnels, the classic AIDA model often comes to mind: Attention — Catching the audience’s eye Interest — Sparking curiosity about your offer Desire — Creating a strong want for your product or service Action — Motivating the customer to buy A well-constructed marketing communication follows these steps, first attracting ...

Keyword Research Made Simple: Start Here Before Writing SEO Content

-
  Before writing anything for your website – be it a blog post, product description, or service page – the first step is always the same: keyword research. This is the foundation for getting found on Google and turning visitors into customers. What is keyword research? During keyword research, we map out what phrases people search for when looking for information or solutions related to your topic. We then consciously incorporate these words and phrases into your content to help it appear higher in Google search results. This can bring organic (i.e., free) traffic – which is more valuable than you might think. Why is it important? If you write your website content based only on “gut feeling,” it rarely yields results. But with conscious keyword usage, you can reach people who are already searching for something – they just don’t know yet that they’ll get it from you. Good keyword research: increases your chances of ranking higher on Google, brings targeted vis...

At the MarketingEveryOne professional blog, we regularly cover topics that help small businesses and content creators gain better visibility in search engines. In this article, I’ll explain what keyword density actually means, why it’s important for SEO, and how to use it wisely—especially now that Google increasingly favors natural, human-centered content. Proper use of keywords is still a key factor in search engine optimization, but your content strategy shouldn’t rely solely on it. Google’s goal today is to display content that is genuinely helpful and valuable to users—not just the one that repeats the keyword most efficiently. Keywords: Friend or Foe? If you’ve ever written content for a website, you’ve likely heard about the importance of “keyword density.” But what exactly does that mean? How is it calculated, and most importantly—does it still matter to Google? Spoiler alert: Yes, it does. But not the way it used to. In this article, I’ll walk you through: w...
