Announcements
I am trying to build-up a list of people who would like to help answer questions that bloggers might have related to starting a blog, growing their blog, monetizing a blog, or Pinterest related questions. If this sounds likes something you’d like to be a part of, I hope you’ll join my Facebook Group – PinArtwork. Thank you!

Proven Checklists to Start a Blog, Grow a Blog, or Monetize it!
My blog has taken a turn of events. As a result, I’m now leaning more in the direction of Affiliate Marketing rather than placing an emphasis on selling digital products. I’m so convinced that there will be more profit to be made in the Affiliate Marketing arena that I’ve decided to share with you several of the checklists that are in my PinArtwork Blog Growth Planner. Plus it kills two birds with one stone, this way you’ll get a taste of the checklists that I have in my planner and may decide to buy it. Without any more delay, here’s a link to: Proven checklists to start a blog -grow-a-blog or-monetize it! Enjoy.
How to start a Blog on WordPress will guide you in setting up your domain for Bluehost – it’s a very similar process for SiteGround. Consequently, you necessarily don’t have to do it in this order, but I’m recommending that new bloggers might want to proceed in this “suggested” fashion. Bluehost is not as customer-oriented and doesn’t have quite the speed of SiteGround: however, Bluehost is a good domain to learn the basics, and if you’d like you can migrate from Bluehost to SiteGround about 5 – 6 months down the road.
Moreover, a better deal than the one above is a limited-time offer through Nameboy where you can get Bluehost for just $2.75 per month as opposed to $3.95 per month. Usually, the starting price is $8.99/month. The choice between the two looks pretty obvious.
How can I start a blog and make money with it? Anyone can start a blog. I suggest that you can get one started with Nameboy (it will provide you with Bluehost and WordPress) for less than $3.00 per month.
To start a blog and make money you need to have a plan. In order for it to be profitable, there’s a right way and a wrong way.
For example, you don’t need to be an expert at computers – but you do need to have the dedication to make the computer to what you need it to do.
For example, WordPress has been updated to version 5.8. To learn more about some of it’s new features visit the post entitled: Features of the new version of WordPress 5.8. It’s not a fancy post but it’ll provide you with some of the important things for you to take a look at when you write new posts and might want to start using some of these new features.
Also, as a new blogger you need to be willing to learn. Did I mention learning already? Because in the first 3 – 6 months of blogging there’s a considerable number of things to learn. Blogging is hard work and the road to profit could possibly be a long journey. I highly recommend to new bloggers that this is your best route (by clicking on the image below). Check it out now, while it’s still available for less than $3.00 per month.
I’ve put together a short video that quickly covers the program called Nameboy which is a Domain Name Generator.
To make my homepage run a little faster, I’ve moved the video to another post called Creating a new website – adding a new domain
Above all, Nameboy suggests different domain names that are available, there’s also a great opportunity for new bloggers to get hosting on Bluehost for $2.75 per month.
I’ve done the homework for you. Now is the best time to take advantage of getting Bluehost through Nameboy for less than $3.00 per month. Compare the prices for Bluehost through Nameboy to SiteGround below:
SiteGround Specials during their Summer Special 68% off prices
| StartUp | GrowBig | GoGeek |
| $4.99/mo | $7.99/mo | $14.99/mo |
NameBoy (Bluehost)
$2.75/mo
Discounted from $8.99/mo.
I hope that you can see that I’m trying to save you the most money by getting Bluehost while their offer still lasts.

Top 3 Pinterest Boards
Blogtober: In October of 2020, I participated in my first Blogtober Challenge. To clarify, this Pinterest board has resulted in more than 2 million Pinterest Impressions within the last 90 days. To learn more about Blogtober, visit my post Blogtober Challenge 2021.
Star Trek Pins from The Original Series (TOS) and The Next Generation (TNG) – this is my number one post (Star Trek TOS) that has more than 9,000 Social Shares.
Fall Decor – Fall decor pins for the holidays.
In case you’re wondering I’ve used Bluehost and SiteGround. Both of them are exceptionally good host programs. Bluehost costs a little bit less per month than SiteGround. If cost isn’t prohibitive I would highly recommend SiteGround for its speed, support, and you’ll actually feel like you’re in control of your blog.

I’ve taken this course and it’s provided me with a lot of helpful insights into Affiliate Marketing that I wasn’t aware of. It’s not a step-by-step approach. But it’s the next best thing to help you get get over the hump. It’s provided me with useful tidbits to hep restructure the layout of my website in pursuit of what most new bloggers are hoping to achieve – financial success by blogging.
One of the last things that I want to leave you with is a pin that I came across that greatly personifies and sums up very easily the daily life of a “new” blogger. If your a blogger, it’s very important to have an understanding of SMART goals and how to achieve them. Here’s a link to this pin if you would like to visit that site for more information.
Before you leave, I would greatly appreciate it if you could pin one of your favorite pins that are on this page. Feel free to pick more than one.

Now that I have 8 ads up, I am finally ready to start telling people about my site. In a couple of days, I will be checking your info. on SEO. So, I will be alternating between adding more content and learning all about SEO. What’s new with you? Are a lot of people visiting your site, and learning about how to blog, and purchasing some ads?

Then I see how awesome your blog is and when I try to browse your site I found everything from start to finish that you need, to grow an online business. I experienced very easy site navigation. your post-coaching, free Pinterest courses, and your resources to grow a successful online business are really valuable and many more. You are really providing great value. Some of the posts and resources were very very helpful to me.

Thank you so much for the wonderful compliment. I’ve put a lot of work into the website and gave it a fresh new look. I took a course through DOSIXFIGURES.COM and it was very helpful and informative. Not only did the course provide information on how to grow it went into a lot of detail about web design and layout. Very worthwhile.

Woah! Ӏ’m realⅼy digging the template/theme of this site. Ιt’ѕ simple, yet effеctivе. A lot of times іt’s very difficult to ցet that “perfect balance” between usability and visual аppearance.
I mᥙst say you have done a amazing job with this. Also, the Bloɡ loads extremeⅼy fast for me on Safari. Excellent Blog!

Thanks for the compliments Jeffrey. I must have changed my theme about 10 times before I finally decided on something that I really liked. Also, a course called Do Six Figures Bootcamp ($37 or $47.00) also helped me to inspire designing my website.
I’m very glad to hear that the blog loads rather well. A blogger on Facebook helped in that matter to get the most out of WP Rocket.
