Important Tips For Bloggers

 
First let me put a disclaimer on this post now! I'm in no way an expert in blogging and after 4 years, I sill have no idea what to do. With that being said these tips I have for you have probably already, been shared before. I'm not the most organized blogger but over this past month that has changed. So these tips I'm going to share have helped me a lot during this month! 
 
Organization 
This is the number one tip that important when it comes to blogging. Whether you're a full time, part time or just a hobby blogger there comes a point where you have to find some type of organization. Now I know for some this is just a hobby and you post when you feel like it, I get it I was like that before. But then you have bloggers who do this as a serious hobby. So anyway having a schedule is important when it comes to being an organized blogger. That goes with consistency. Only you know how much you want to post. Whether it's one, two, three or more days a week planning what you want to post is easy and helpful. The if you need some assistance in planning out your time check out these two etsy shops. These shops have you covered! DorkfaceShop & PaperChicCo 
 
Promotion
This is a tricky tip but it's also important! I hope that made sense but I'm serious. Now what I mean by tricky is, I've seen people who feel like spam tweets about blog promoting can be annoying. In my opinion I don't feel like that at all when seeing promotion posts. I use to be nervous about this because I wouldn't want to annoy anyone. But the I thought how else would someone read your blog. This is wear hashtags come into play. These are so helpful when promoting a post or your entire blog. There are so many to count, I can't keep track. But I may dedicate a post to all of the helpful twitter hashtags and pages! For me I like to promote once in the morning, afternoon and evening. But I may do it more frequently throughout the day. It really does make a difference. 
 
Be yourself 
I probably write this a lot but it is truly important to be yourself while blogging. Obviously not just for blogging, but hopefully you understand what I mean. With blogging it can be difficult sometimes, to be yourself. We may see another blogger getting comments or likes and we think we should do whatever it is that their doing. No that's not the case at all. Blog about what you like and what makes you happy. There is no right or wrong way to blog. 
 
Twitter Chats
These chats are super fun and most of all, very helpful. You get a chance to meet new people and you learn a lot from one another. I know from experience and so many other bloggers are super supportive. 
 
These tips have helped me and I hope you find them useful!

Helpful Posts/Sites For Bloggers

Being a blogger is not easy at all, whether it's a hobby or a job. Every blogger works so hard to put out quality work. But sometimes it can be a struggle. While in a blogging rut I came across a lot of posts that have helped me gain confidence. These posts also helped me realize my creativity; all I needed to do was use my noggin! But before you click on the links below, I'm going to explain what these links mean to me. I don't want to bore you but I'm hoping these will help you too.   Everytime I get into a blogging rut I always look at my blog design. Thinking that the design I have is always the problem, I go and I spend money to change it. In reality the major problem was myself. Now don't get me wrong, designs I've had were beautiful it just wasn't for me. During my long "break" or breakdown I did a lot of searching. I'm pretty sure you all heard of Etsy, am I right? This is where I found two shops that have helped me tremendous...

Color Theory:8 Piece Ultimate Eyeliner Set

I love Eyeliner; eyeliner is my go to look. Anytime I had eyeliner my eyes would look like their dressed up! The only eyeliner I have ever wore up until this point was black; because that was the only color I thought was out (crazy of me right?!) Anyway lately I've seen many girls wear different color eyeliner, mainly on YouTube; so I knew immediately I would have to try it. After a while I forgot all about them, until Christmas of 2012 when I received them. I was so excited because my Mom didn't even know I wanted them; now that I am thinking I didn't even ask!  Now I can match up the colors with eyeshadow. Enough of that here's the box they came in and I have the colors listed below. On the back it just talks about the different styles you can do with the eyeliners. For example: The famous winged look (instructions for it are on the back).                                ...

Finding My Passion For Blogging Again

  At some point in time, when your heart isn’t into something you should take a break. Blogging is great and I couldn’t see myself without it. However sometimes it can get overwhelming and that’s what happened to me this year. For about eight months I have not blogged and I thought I was a bad person for that. I have realized that it was best to take the long break. In doing so, I have found so many things I love to talk about. I was holding myself back because I put a label on myself, wanting to be known as a beauty blogger. Sure I attached the lifestyle part, but honestly I don’t really know what that means.  During this year I had time to reflect on where I wanted my blog to go and whether I even wanted to write anymore. Honestly the motivation to blog was not there at all and at that time, I really didn’t care if I continued. I did not want to look at my blog or deal with it. For me I was tired of putting in the work and not getting anything in return. Meaning no ...
