  1. This is great advice! I’m a new blogger and yes, I have definitely felt overwhelmed with feeling so much has to be done and done perfectly. I agree that content is key! That is what I choose to focus on.
    Thanks for the reminder!

  2. This meant a lot! I am new (January this year) and I am having SO much fun! I was overwhelmed at EVERYTHING new for about 3 weeks. Then I had a good talking to myself and said, “Karla, you love to write. Just write. Then take one piece of this at a time until you understand it. The world will not stop if you aren’t successful in the first 3 months.” I haven’t even gotten to SEO solid knowledge yet…. Even Pinterest had me stumped… that took almost a month. I’m not sure what my block was, but I was bumbling along. I LOVE Facebook. That’s where I started. SLOWLY I am building traffic. (while I parent 7 kids by myself). But I’m having SO much fun!

  3. Thanks for the encouragement! as a new blogger, I probably give up or want to quit, several times a day! I will keep plugging along at my own pace. Thanks again!

  4. This is such great advice indeed. I guess the reason why some new bloggers feel overwhelmed is that they look at success stories of other bloggers and set themselves unrealistic goals like earning a full-time income in 6 months (which is doable but not the standard for everyone).

  5. Great advice! The content (the writing) is the first important piece of the puzzle. The focus on “clear, tight, organized, and grammatically correct” seems to be an afterthought for many bloggers. Thanks for carrying the message – Michael (aka, WordsmithMojo)
