Mom Blogger

I have been blogging for almost 2 years now and would put myself into the “Mommy Blogger” category. Only because I am a Mom and I am a blogger; however, I really do not love that terminology. My blog is my business, not my hobby or my past time. Either way, I am both a mom and a blogger and…

I speak Mom Blogger.

I have enough web and computer background knowledge to get myself by. I love learning new things so most of the time, I’d rather figure things out myself than get someone else to do it for me. That’s not always easy though when it comes to blogging.

When I say blogging, most might think that just involves sitting down at one’s computer and typing. Sure, that’s part of it. Then there’s the whole other technical side of things that you can easily get lost in if you haven’t a clue what you’re doing. The list of jargon that gets thrown at you is crazy. You start learning a whole new world when you become a blogger.

What I have found in the last two years is that there are

a lot of things to learn. I have had to do a lot of research and ask a lot of questions along the way. In this research, a lot of times, I have no clue what the experts are talking about. They are not speaking blogger to me. Once I finally figure out what they are saying, I like to then turn around and interpret for other bloggers like myself. Put it in Mom Blogger terms, if you will. Some speak geek…I speak Mom Blogger.

For example, I was working in a group with my fellow bloggers and had noticed that not all of them were on Google plus, some of them were on but had not set up a business page, and some were on but not posting to g+. In my own blogging journey, one of my latest discoveries was how beneficial g+ was in terms of SEO. I had also set up an began using an Author Page. Seeing that both could be useful to other bloggers, I wrote up a post on Setting Up Author Page, G+ Tips and More. If you haven’t gotten into using g+, I’d jump on that band wagon.

I try to just write blogger tips that I know that I need along my journey and that other bloggers might be able to use as well. Sometimes I think the tips I share might be basic but then again, we all had to start somewhere.

I speak Mom Blogger! Do you?

    Very interesting.

    I think one of the most important things we need now is strong families.
    This starts with FATHERS.

    Is this a topic that you discuss on your blog?

    Hi Dawn, Thanks for the great tips. I am definitely one to try and figure out things myself even thought it may take me next to forever to do so.

    Well, This is a new trend that I’ve seen among young women. Most of the housewives who earlier used to spend their time watching TV or gossiping have now turned towards blogging which has eventually helped them to contribute towards their family income.

    I speak Mom blogger now, but like you, it was a learn as you go process. Two years in and I’m still learning!
    I will check out your Google + post because while I am on Google +, I need help learning the ropes and I know there is no better teacher than another Mom blogger.

    I speak mom blogger even though I am not a parent. I was told recently that g+ your blog post helps somewhat in terms of SEO. I also tend to figure things out myself which is often a bad thing because I might spend more time than necessary to figure something out. When that time could have gone to other aspects of my blog like marketing.

    Dawn, the honesty and ‘truth’ is appreciated! Many of us have a lot we just don’t know, but are afraid to admit it. The social media “know-how” world can be intimidating; all the jargon and fancy lingo. Then, just when you think you’ve got it—2 days later something new comes along and you feel clueless again. Keep doing it the way you’re doing it Dawn—we’re all in the same boat.
