How to Become a Successful Food Blogger

 If you are looking for an easy, fast way to make money and you think it will be from a blog, you are sadly mistaken. 

If you willing to develop (or have developed) a blog such as a food blog and post no less than once a week but preferably two or three times a week for at least six months to a year, you can become successful as a food blogger. Of course there are no guarantees, but you have a fair to good chance of success. 

There are a lot of variables, including but not limited to:

1. Your niche 

2. Your web site layout and design

3. Your content

4. Your push or effort to have your blog publicized

5. Your ability to attract advertising or be approved for a major advertising portal who places ads on your site

6. Your writing and photography style

7. Your ability to have a plan for the next level of your blog, which include product such as a book, cookware or something else food or kitchen related


But really, the most important thing needed to be successful as a food blogger is the commitment and consistency to producing the blogs. You might be very surprised to know how many people have an epiphany to produce a food blog, but lose momentum after a few posts and then move on to something else. 

A food blog is a job and you have to have the ability to be your own boss. This is very hard for a lot of people, which is why most people who are employed work for a company or someone else. 

To be successful as a food blogger you have to have patience for all of the issues that are going to come up, such as technical problems and your own time constraints. You have to be committed to the blog for the long haul. Let's say that again: you have to be willing to put months, maybe a few years of sweat and tears into the blog, to see success. In rare cases a food blogger can "make it" in much less time. If that turns out to be you then congratulations. But if you are one of the other 98% and you want to make a decent living or supplement income with a side-hustle food blog, then be prepared for the hard work it will take. Money does not grow on trees and people don't toss it out windows at you like confetti.

 If this article hasn't discouraged you from a food blog then you may have what it takes to produce and be successful at one.

How to Put on Perfume or Cologne

 There is almost nothing sadder than when someone spends $100.00 on a bottle of smell-good, only to ruin it by putting on too much. People around are robbed of the opportunity to appreciate your investment, to catch a slight, aromatic whiff of your bottled scent as you pass them in the supermarket or in a fancy restaurant, work, everywhere you go.  And if you continue to take a bath in your perfume or cologne you have for all intents and purposes wasted your $100.00, because no one can appreciate the overwhelming scent you carry, and you would be better appreciated with no perfume or cologne on at all.  Sometimes the scent of perfume or cologne is so overwhelming it immediately invades the nostrils of others, causing some to actually feel sick or get a headache.  The best way to apply perfume or cologne to your body is not to directly apply it at all. To apply perfume or cologne place yourself in a room with high ceilings if possible. If not possible still use this p...

How to Create a Natural Privacy Fence by Growing Bamboo

 Bamboo, one of the fastest growing plants in the world is misunderstood by many people when it comes to gardening. The main reason for this is because some people do not have enough knowledge about bamboo and the 1,000 species of the plant. You can successfully grow bamboo in your yard with only a little extra knowledge about the plant and caring for it. You can create a natural fence of bamboo along perimeters of your yard by doing the following: 1. Plant a version called "clumping." There are numerous clumping versions of bamboo. Just make sure you have purchased a clumping version because it forms a root ball, and the roots should not spread like evasive varieties of the plant. 2. Decide the approximate height you are seeking for your privacy fence. This is because you can control the height of the bamboo early on. If you wait too long, it may take lift equipment to reach the top of the bamboo. You can also control the depth of the bamboo on a regular basis, for example i...

How to Make Vanilla Bourbon Chicken

                                                           Photo: Herbscapes.com Yesterday a neighbor gave me a small jar of Madagascar Bourbon vanilla she has been curing for about six months. The vanilla beans stood in a brown liquid of vanilla and bourbon. For some reason I immediately thought of chicken. I will definitely infuse this liquid gold into some dessert creations, but I happened to have three chicken filets in the fridge ready to make their culinary debut. I rinsed the filets under cold water and placed in a plastic bag. It occurred to me that if I poured too much of the vanilla bourbon into the bag, it would be absorbed by the filets and overtake the flavor, knocking out the fresh German thyme I planned to top on the cooked meal. In plain English: it would be too strong. I carefully dripped about an eighth of a teaspoon into...
