Blogging Communities on Google Plus: Promote Your Blog

Google Plus community
Austin, Texas
May 24, 2016 2:58pm CST
Are you active in the Google Plus social media network? If you are, then you are familiar with the G+ communities. They are similar to Facebook groups. Of course if you aren't on Facebook that's probably not a good comparison. Anyway! … I try to participate in groups and/or communities that help promote my blogs. Since there are a lot of myLot members who also publish blogs, thought this community, which someone sent me an invitation to join, might be of interest to my fellow bloggers. Keep on blogging.

@annierose I didn't know what the requirements are I just filled up the application form and put my blog link I have 100 short posts on Wordpress, categorized and with tags but Chitika is not allowed at Wordpress.com. I thought my application was denied. I was surprised when I received an email that my application was approved. Chitika works on Blogger so I just put the code on my Blogger blog. No earnings yet. I will buy a domain and familiarize Wordpress.org once I earn from my Blogger blog.

@cmoneyspinner Such an encouraging post. I am still looking around for blogs that have same interest as mine which are about books and travels. I do not know yet how to start on it. So far I have seen that those two topics are always blogged separately.

Have you ever kept a diary or a journal? That's all blogging is. You can make it personal or you can choose a more public type of topic - like places you like to visit, or business tips, or recipes, or some subject you're passionate about or have an specific knowledge about that makes you a reliable source for advice. It's your blog. Who else is out there on the worldwide web that's exactly like you? You are the one who makes it “unique”. There is nothing preventing you except you. Many of the blogging platforms are free to use. You can always delete the blog, if you decide it's not for you. Just a cautionary note: Follow the rules or the platform owners will delete your blog. It's happened to me. I wrote it off as a learning experience. Then I went back to the blackboard and tried again! After all, my blog was deleted. It wasn't like I was banished or exiled from the worldwide web! "If at first you don't succeed, try try again."

I can see you are so experienced using the internet to make money! Do you make good money as a blogger and internet writer? Do you have a full time job aside from blogging and online writing?

I only started blogging because I don't have a job outside the home. My blogs don't generate a steady paycheck but they are gradually starting to generate income. It takes a while to build up traffic to the sites, but once you do start attracting visitors, things start looking up! It doesn't happen over night though.

It's surprising to see that the community has over 50K members. I'll have to set aside a block of time to really look around.

@just4him - This site can keep you busy. But at least you don't feel like your time is not well spent.

Nice suggestion. I don't write in blogs these days; lack of inspiration!

Lack of inspiration? That's not so bad. Many folks are just plum tired!

The posts that you already have published are terrific! Even if you take a break, you left plenty online to keep readers engaged.
