How Do You Blog?

Despite the title that refers to myself and how I do it all, I'm here for the same reasons as most bloggers. I have things I want to write about, I love writing and this is a great platform to do it, but I struggle like most in getting the blog traffic, understanding the codes and making it happen just as I want it to!

That's where I just have to suck it up and so do you when it comes to starting your blog and making it happen. It has to be about you to begin with and your passions, because you're no good to anyone if you don't know what you have to offer. No one wants to hear about what you did last night, but they definitely want to hear how you're recovering and what you do to make the hangover less dramatic.

Girls don't just need to know how to look good as a Victoria's Secret model, but how to look good as themselves. I could've been writing when I was in my deepest depression, but I had no desire to share with anyone how to sit on a bathroom floor and cry all day while contemplating the least violent ways to take my own life.

So I promise this is not just a platform to talk about myself, but to give you a resource to all things that are awesome to me :)

Unless requested, I am not God so I have no idea what everyone is looking for, but I know what Mom's like me are looking for and what they probably need!

So don't give up on what you love and write til your little heart explodes, but don't be that annoying person taking up blog space talking about absolutely nothing and expecting someone to follow. If you're the Jenna Hamilton's of the world and are using it more for your personal diary and reasons, so be it, but if not here's some pages and tips that help me along the way, good luck!
