5 security points for all bloggers you should know In 2023 By BlogingMentor

I’ve been a blogger for over 20 years now and I understand what it means to be one of those people who don’t write content regularly or even once in weeks, but instead, have a blog for months at the same time. It is not easy, I know, and it can get very frustrating. Sometimes your audience can become so busy that they forget about you.

But it doesn’t mean that they feel like they do not need you anymore because you are no longer there to serve them, which is why I am here today to share my list of five key security tips for blogging.

5 security points for all bloggers you should know In 2023

Have More Content Than Ever Before

I have been writing professionally since 2000 but had never really thought of myself as a writer before I wrote content on Medium. And that was due to lack of self-awareness and insecurity. Over the past 10 years, blogging has given me more space for creativity and inspiration than ever before and it has opened up new opportunities (like being able to run an online shop), I would say pretty damn cool.

So if you are ready to go after becoming a full-time creator like me, then don't wait until something crazy happens to make things happen. Get started now…

Don’t Be Afraid To Start Your Own Business

I know this may sound counterintuitive. Why start your own business when you have millions of followers? Because I wouldn’t. Don’t get me wrong, I love making money but it comes with limitations.

Yes, you could earn a lot from blogging, but once people start consuming information, they start demanding more from their writers or writers’ blogs. There’s always something out there waiting to be written by someone else so unless you are prepared to offer something different each day, I would not recommend starting a digital shop. Instead just set up a newsletter and sell it directly to your readers, sell ads, post social media posts, whatever fits your niche well, and watch how fast it grows and becomes your main source of income.

Then you can start building relationships with other people who like your articles and might want to support your cause or help you grow. That’s what we call trust. Trust your gut and listen to your passion and don't forget to think about your future in case you decide to pursue monetization from other online businesses. After all, “There’s only one way to build a successful website - with money.”

You Need A Personal Website

A personally branded website is like having multiple websites and one home page that serves as the core for everything. With a blog, you will need some work to make sure that your site looks professional and attractive. If you are okay with doing regular updates on your website, and keep trying new concepts and technologies to learn, then go ahead and create your first blog.

It’s okay to spend some time figuring out your style of writing, deciding what topics you want to cover, and learning SEO skills to boost traffic to your blog, etc. But this is only one aspect of a great site. The best thing about a personal website is how much attention it will attract to your target market. When people are interested enough to pay attention to your blog, it will help to build trust with readers, generate leads and help you earn recurring revenue.

Don’t Forget About Privacy Settings

To ensure everyone’s safety and privacy, I would suggest using WordPress and Ghostery software from Bluehost and WP Engine respectively. Both of these platforms offer features for web design and domain registration such as allowing people to register private domains, creating secure HTTPS servers and email addresses, verifying the IP address and detecting malware for free.

However, there is another reason for choosing both these tools over others. Bluehost offers 24/7 customer service and allows users to set up any domain name in minutes without spending any money. This is one feature that makes Bluehost stand head and shoulders above its competitors and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to start a blog. Also, WP Engine by far, stands out as the most dependable hosting service provider because of their responsive technical teams and quick response times.

They can provide you with everything from hosting to backups and other services in a small cost. They also have a 30 days money back guarantee in case something went wrong.
