mommysup

Crickette, The Things I Have to Say
September 24, 2019I agree with everything, especially with patience and focus. I’ve been a blogger for more than a decade but it was more lazy work that I was doing in the past. When I opened my new blog, I was determined to take things seriously, and it’s really a lot of work.
Bree L.

September 26, 2019Patience is definitely my biggest pitfall, I’m very much an instant gratification type of person, but succeeding with my blog has been important enough for me to fight through the slow times.

aisasami
September 26, 2019Blogging is a challenge but there are many rewards if you continue, persevere, and focus!
Nate
September 26, 2019I am not going to lie. I did not have patience in the beginning. I was seeing so many people having success in blogging and I always said to myself if they can do it, so can I but the long story short is that I tried to shortcute my way into success but didn’t work. Patience is key!
Art & Home
September 26, 2019I agree that patience is key. It takes a long time to build something that will last. There are plenty of people who will promise you fast results, but the quicker something takes the build usually means the faster it will fall apart.
Have patience and do it right!

Patricia M.
September 28, 2019Focus and patience have been the 2 hardest ones for me. I know that I need to have patience but can’t focus on that. But I’m trying really hard to persevere.
Jasmine M
September 28, 2019Research and continuous marketing is extremely important. I started a few other blogs and they didn’t do well because I was only posting about them once as well as not doing any research for growth. Now that I’ve applied myself with my most recent blog, it’s doing very well because I am promoting it everyday and learning as much as I can about blogging.

November 8, 2019I’m trying to stay calm and to have patience, but sometimes I just want to give up. I’m still trying to be different and to present content in the best way possible.
Nyxinked
November 8, 2019Patience is a must when it comes to blogging. There is no way to fast track or rush things in the blogging world. You need to accept that a loyal following/audience takes time.
Tara Pittman (@momknowsbest15)
November 8, 2019Yes to all. The paitence part is what most dont understand with blogging.

jocelynnielson
November 10, 2019I absolutely agree! Focus and patience are so crucial for blogging, as it takes time to build up a loyal following, and a blogger needs to be committed to the long road ahead. As someone who has started and stopped blogging over the past few years, the road is not easy, but it can be very worth it.
Cindy Ingalls
November 11, 2019Blogging can be very rewarding but it does take a lot of patience and effort. As long as you don’t expect success to happen overnight, you will enjoy the journey.

November 18, 2019Great article!
Blogging is challenging and then when you think you have it sorted, a new set of rules arrive each year or every 6 months.
Kristy Bullard
November 26, 2019These factors are all necessary to be successful in blogging. Patience has been the most difficult for me. It takes a long time to build a trusting audience and a brand. But hard work and patience pays off!
Nyxinked
November 26, 2019Having patience with your blog and promoting it are key. If you don’t promote you’ll get no traffic, and if you have no patience you won’t stick at it long enough to reap the benefits.
But it’s also very important to have worth while content too.
Amber Myers
November 26, 2019I’ll keep this in mind. I always want to have a successful blog. I try to do a lot of these.
Marie
November 26, 2019Blogging is tough business! And it takes time, just like you said. Thank you for some great pointers.
Tara Pittman (@momknowsbest15)
November 27, 2019I like the diagram of the factors. This would be a good daily reminder for me when I work.
Crickette, The Things I Have to Say
November 27, 2019Patience and Committment has to be the most significant of all these factors. I mean, I know of a lot of people who “thought” they wanted to blog but they quit early. Blogging is so much more than writing. And YES about marketing. I mean, if you do not want to be talking to the wind, then you have to work on your marketing strategies.
Cristina Pop
November 27, 2019Patience is definitely not my best quality! You have some great ideas here!
StephJ
November 27, 2019People often make these wild claims and long steps about blogging but you are right it really comes down to a few simple steps. If you do each one well you will have success.
