- Harder than it looks
- No one is gonna do the work for you
- Pictures and media is way more fun
- Working in Photoshop makes life easier
- You can get lost for hours working on a good article or a graphic
- Still haven’t made money
- Is considered a hobby still
- Your WordPress theme makes all the difference.
- Domains will expire after 1 year but your hosting time varies.
- People will help you take photos usually.
- Writing is not easy.
- You have to do a lot of writing to make a site have content but videos and pictures are easy.
- Running a site eats up so much space with pictures.
- I recommend at least 256GB to 512GB for backing up files.
- My best work is done at night time or when am at work on break etc.
- Food pics are awesome.
- Travel pics are awesome.
- Sometimes you have to come back to an article later but can always set something to private.
- Be careful of plugins. They can leave permission holes that grant an accidental elevated privileges to a user role that is not intended to have that permission. Uninstall or delete or deactivate plugins that are not needed.
- Wish there were more tweaks to my theme but will have to mess with that later.
- 7 months in I find I wanna relax sometimes but have to work on the blog. Luckily “work” can mean taking photos and other things besides writing.
- Sometimes I don’t know what to write about and have to look at the news, Twitter, social media and books etc to get some ideas to write about.
- Don’t spend a lot of money to start a site.
- You have to sleep.
- It is a gradual process.
