When it comes to building a fan club, entertainers have a slight edge over most when it comes to using a blog as your foundation. Here’s why…
People are enamored with entertainment and entertainers. It doesn’t matter what field of entertainment that you specialize in…
People want to know what entertainers are doing. They want to know the struggles and the triumphs. They want to know who you meet and where you are performing. They want to know everything about you and what you are doing.
My attempt at blogging years ago was not the success story that you usually hear. I made a number of critical mistakes that could have put me far ahead had I known what the heck I was doing.
Instead, I quit blogging after 18 months not even realizing that my lack of traffic and income were my own doing.
It wasn’t the blog — it was me keeping me from success with that first WordPress blog.
I try to use at least one image in every blog post I publish and the reason is simple…
Images give your WordPress blog posts more life and more appeal, making them more apt to be read.
I try to include a funny or interesting image that is somehow related to the material in the blog post (but not always–I don’t think that the image to the left has anything to do with this blog post–it just looked cool to me).
A lot of people are under the impression that they need to go through the process of starting a corporation before they launch their first online business.
Nothing could be farther from the truth. The minute that you start a blog—or any website for the intent of making a profit—you are in business as a sole proprietor.
You don’t need a business license. You don’t need a business banking account. Down the road, if you making the income to warrant a business banking account, you will have to go through the process of setting up your business entity, which again can be a sole proprietorship. It does not have to be a corporation.
