This course will show you how to set up a blog, step-by-step, in the correct way, so that you can make it into a business and earn money. It will walk you through the technical side from setting up WordPress to creating a logo and even how to structure your blog posts so that they rank well on Google. It is tailored for beginners, for anybody who is still very unfamiliar with blogging and the technical set-up.
No idea what to blog about? I have you covered with my niche finding strategy that will help you find YOUR perfect niche that will be profitable as well as something that you love.

The money making possibilities of your blog will be covered in a separate course, so that the courses are more tailored to suit the individual needs of the students.
This course will get you ready to start your business in the correct way and explains every lesson step-by-step so that it is easy for a beginning blogger.
