There are so many guides available on the internet regarding the topic "how to create a blog" or "how to start a blog" and make money by blogging and I will be on point to help you don't waste your precious time.

Making your first dollar from the online world by starting your own personal blog was not that easy, but now it's very very easy to do as I am here to help you out and show you the exact step by step guide.

This guide will surely help you to create a blog with little or no knowledge of technical stuff.

Yeah!

Even if you can't code yourself or you don't understand the technical issues that we sometimes have to address while creating a blog, you can start a blog by reading below a simple and to the point guide.

Before getting started, read about what is a blog and how it works:

• A blog is your real estate online
• It can be created by yourself or a person you hire
• You can post anything on your blogs like text, images, videos, and more

Basically, it's your online notebook and you got the controls over it to make things more flexible, catchy, and awesome.

This notebook is a digital one so you can add flash items and videos or Gifs to your blog (the sky is not the limit).

You can write about anything you want to, but I suggest you make sure you have an interest in writing that topic you are about to publish on your blog as people (readers of your blog) will think that you are master in that thing you've created a blog post on so picking a niche should worth it.

Step 1. Select a niche

Before making your first blog I suggest you choose a niche (topic) for your blog so you can easily write more articles (blog posts) on a daily to weekly basis.

If you don't update your blog frequently in the first days or you can say first months then you can't make a good readership and you can lose the coming success before it comes to you.

Be selective about finding your favorite topic.

Just ask these questions to yourself and think about them:

1. In which topic you are great to write and think differently?
2. What is the topic or thing which inspires you every day?
3. What are some skills or ones which you can teach to your blog audience?
4. What is your favorite topic you love to talk about?

Tip: Interact with other fellow bloggers.

Hmm! You can find other fellow bloggers in your niche, but before searching for fellow bloggers make sure that you've selected a perfect topic for your blog.

It is a necessary point.

Let's assume that you've selected "finance" for your blog topic and you are good at giving advice on financial issues and other topics related to finance like saving money and investing.

Now go to Google and type "top 50 finance bloggers" or you can search for the top 10.

After having a list of top bloggers and their blogs - read their blogs and follow them on Twitter.

Read at least 2/3 articles from each and every blog, read about us pages of those blogs too.

Have inspiration and now think again that you can create awesome or great content like that top bloggers?

2. Find a domain name

If you think that you can create outstanding content then follow the below steps and this 2nd step is "choosing a domain name for your new blog".

A domain is an address for your online real estate (blog) to make a nice impact on your readers you've to find a lovely domain name.

And here's how you can find a good one.

I recommend you register a domain name with a TLD extension like .com, .net, and .org that can help you find a memorable blog name.

Now simply search about what are the common problems that people are finding solutions for related to your blog name and niche.

For example:

If you want to blog on a finance topic then brainstorm related words such as financial issues with single women, finance tips, finance companies, and many others.

If it's available then read below or brainstorm another word or open our blog name ideas index or type your niche in the search box to find hundreds of blog name suggestions for free.

3. Get hosting from a trusted hosting provider

To start a blog today, you've to get hosting for a self-hosted blog.

By self-hosting I mean to say you can get control over your blog and you can take any decision for your blogging career (whenever you want).

As there are many free platforms are available but that free blogging platforms don't give you full control such as cPanel and FTP, adding new themes, leveling up your blog to a website, or any other thing which you'll need after some months of successful blogging.

So, It's better to have a hosting account on a trusted hosting provider's website.
