WHO IS A BLOGGER?
Blogging may have different meanings to different people base on what they think, do, blog or believe. I see blogging far beyond just making an online post and if I am asked to define what blogging or who a blogger is I would say,
A blogger is someone who frequently creates online contents either for a website to meet a specific set of audience by providing them with information, solving a specific problem or for some general purposes.
It doesn't just end by knowing how to make a post but also knowing how to meet the right audience depending on what content you are blogging, making a quality content with an interesting topics that would spice up your audience to dedicate their time to your article. All this are strategies that a good blogger should put into consideration before pushing the publish button.
MY CHALLENGES AS A BLOGGER!
QUALITY REASONING
Some people are very brilliant in creating an idea, being able to think far, fast and wide. Locating a problem and presenting a possible solution to it. While some may not be so good and prefer blogging on a general topic because reasoning a perfect topic may be so difficult.
I always try to bring about a good topic and sometimes if I can't think far enough to accumulate more ideas, I use a prompt. That would keep my thinking focused on a specific topic.
MOOD AND DISCOURAGEMENT
We all have one or more contents in our head, minds or drafts that we wish to share(blog) with our audience at some given point in time but they are cases where you sit in front of your computer and feel discouraged after just writing a few lines or one paragraph.
Having a sudden feeling of discouragement and negative thoughts maybe the content won't make wave or you feel like the content is not worth blogging and sometimes just discouraged that you don't know how to construct your imaginary ideas from your head down to a text format. The decoding process maybe so discouraging and you might end up loosing interest on such article.
TIME AND AVAILABILITY

I always wish to be a daily blogger who may have good and quality articles to blog on a daily base. But unfortunately there happens to be more to life than just spending time on your device. You get busy and run into certain challenges in life that you don't even remember or have a spare time to make an ordinary post talk more of a quality blog.
SUPPORTERS

It may not be really easy for some people to create an article and the worst of all is after creating a content and it doesn't reach out or never came back with a positive vibe and feedback to the author. Sometimes it could really piss off to not see the pay of an effort but I believe if your content is worth supporting then you will definitely get some support so keep blogging and trying your own best to your blogs.
MY PERSONAL BLOGGING STRATEGIES!.
They are no perfect ways to present your articles on a blog so the best thing you can do for your blogging is to do your very best. But some guide to improve your blogging life include:

READING/STUDYING.
When you find out time to read alot of contents or books this always help widen your inner thoughts and thinking, expanding your area of knowledge too. After reading and understanding certain articles or books, It creates room for you to build your own ideas too!. This is the benefit of engagement and why you must visit other Bloggers contents as well.
LEARN FROM OTHER BLOGGERS
I do have some role models in terms of blogging haha.. it sounds funny but true and names withheld. But there may be no other perfect way to learn blogging than to watch and follow the footsteps of your favorite or a quality content blogger this will serve as a guideline for your own blogging too.
FINDING YOUR BLOGGING MOMENT.
We certainly may not be able to create a content while walking under the burning sun or when having a stressful day. It is very important to know what time your head is most active make a content.
Recently I realized mine and it was very funny to know that I can best write for a blog when I am well feed 😂. I can't be typing with an empty stomach so whenever I want the best from myself I make sure to eat and be satisfied.
SHORT QUALITY AND TASTY BLOG.
It may not really be necessary but I do try my best to keep an article well summarized and of its best quality except the content generally has to cover alot. This is because most audience would want to quickly go through your article within few minutes and not spend the whole day on it. This is why I try to keep it summarized and of its best.
In general, I may not be able to give us a complete guide on how well you could blog your contents but I believe if you carefully read through this little piece of mine then you definitely have learnt something from it. They say that practices make perfect although no one is perfect but the more we practice the closer we are to perfection. Keep doing your own best and you will also get to perfection. Happy blogging guys.🙂

Hi @protokkol and thanks for putting together this lost for newbies. I'm sure it can be helpful for many. However, OCD is for topics that don't fit in any other community and should be used when you don't find a niche community for your post.
We have different communities on Hive and we're encouraging users to post in the right community based on the topic of the post. This post for example would fit better in Self Improvement community.
Here's a guide I put together to help you learn about how communities work and why you should use them -> Communities Explained - Newbie Guide.
Once you posted your post in the right community, you can then cross post it to OCD community. Here's a guide about cross posting.
Please don't delete any post with the purpose of reposting it in another community as that can be considered abuse! Leave this post here, you'll get it right next time.
Yeah sure, the self improvement community... I was targeting some newbies so I thought here would be best Thank you so much @erikah
You're welcome.
Thank you very much for sharing these tips, very practical and easy to understand. In this world of Blogger there are its ups and downs, but everything happens and the passion for writing takes its lane. And you're absolutely right, I don't think it's a good idea to write hungry, hehehehehe. Success and blessings!
😊 yes you are right and of course, when the tummy is satisfied the head can now think straight ☺️😂
Once again thank you very much amigo
