Have you ever wondered if there are secrets for blogging? It’s no secret that many bloggers hope to make a little extra money with their blogs. Some bloggers are looking for extra spending money or money to buy Christmas gifts. Other bloggers hope that their blog will eventually support themselves and their family. When I was new to blogging, I had no idea how bloggers went about making their blogs look as good as they did or how they earned the kind of money they were earning. I felt completely out of my league. Eventually, I found ProBlogger’s 31 Days to a Better Blog and that started me on the right track.
