Writing Encouraging Words – the Mission of My Blog
As a nominee, I am answering a few questions to help the readers know me better.
When and why did you start blogging?
I started blogging in May 2017. My mission is to encourage and equip believers to walk deeper with God, to grow spiritually, to put their hope in God, and to move forward on the way of faith by explaining the Christian faith and its practical applications.
What is your blog about?
My blog is a place of sharing the truths of God applied in practice in life and an invitation to move forward ON THE WAY together. Here you will find help on how to overcome discouragement and disappointment, fears, and anxiety, destructive mindsets. I offer biblical solutions and guidance in the areas of relationships, finding satisfaction and happiness, transforming your thinking.
What is one piece of advice you would give to encourage new bloggers?
I would advise them to take their time and invest in preparation before start blogging. When I started, I didn’t know anything about SEO or how to do keyword research and the technical side of blogging. I needed to learn all this the hard way.
Which is your favorite time-saving blogging tip or scheduling tool?
My time-saving blogging tip is planning and writing content in advance. I usually do bulk writing, writing up to five blog posts, and then schedule them in the system.
What are your future goals for your blog?
My future goals are to reach more potential readers and to enlarge the scope of the blog. I also want to continue writing encouraging words, that have the power to inspire and transform lives.
