Everyday, the blogging world (blogosphere) is expanding. Everyone wants to own a blog if not to make money but for entertainment. well, when you blog for passion, money rolls in.

I have highlighted 5 tips new bloggers must know about their blog if you don't want to be the runaway type...(sorry for that word but that's the fact).

1. Never Switch: Switching is very common among new bloggers, you can switch anything, it might be theme/template, plugins/add-on, niches and so on. Anything you change from its normal state is switching.
I remembered when I started blogging, I made this mistake too. I would change my theme every time I find a more descent one. this killed my blog's traffic and also I do change niches, I may be on technology news this week and by next week, I am on blogging tutorial niche. This is not a good action and it kills blog.

2. Never be Afraid or Shy: This is funny right? but that's the point. Being afraid or shy kills your blog 95%. Why 95%? I gave this score because your blog's success depends on you.
If you are afraid to share your blog on social medias thinks you will be spamming others, its bad. If you are in a niche that warrants you to interview an expert in your niche and you are thinking approaching the expert will make no yield because your blog is new and small, you are damn wrong.
Everything warrants boldness, Spam the hell out of social media and be kicked out (which is rear) and attain your goals. I do spam groups and pages too on Facebook and I see good results on statistics.

3. Don't Stay on Your Blog: No, get me right with this. Ask yourself these questions:
who owns the blog? ME!
Is the blog running away? NO!
Then why do you have to keep watching and wasting time there, you have work to do friend. go out there and advertise, if you can't do paid adverts, go and join forums and make comments referring to you blog posts in a mature way to avoid ban.
Time waits for no one, leave that coding, even leave seoing at first. get that traffic and then do your seo.

4. No Damn Adverts!: though its cool to monetize blog from day one but it does look frustrating to visitors if placed in a bad order. don't loiter your blog with ads, its not a PTC site uhm.
Okay, just eradicate them for now, give your visitors space to browse for now and then you can have them occupied later...

5. Patience: Yes, you need to have this, without this, blogging is nothing. it takes over three years for blogs to glow, so why rushing, ask the big fishes in the game, they have lot to say.
With all these words piled together, I think you know what it means now to own a blog and what to do. Never be on the runaway side!!! *winks..

You can always get premium WordPress themes and blogger templates for free at pearstep and also good blogging tips for you.

since you are on blogger, you can only remove it or if you are a coder u can do that in template's editor.
to remove,navigate to widgets area and locate footer, remove it.

op what you said is quite true

Nice Article OP. More MB to your modem. It ain't easy at all, even designing a template to your taste is another World War III to a newbie. Lol, talking about "No damn Ads" there are some blogs that once you arrive the landing page, 5 different tabs have opened and before you know you're in play store to download jiji app. That was how I was automatically subscribed to AIRTEL Football and my ₦40 was taken without my consent.. Is your blog powered by Blogger or WordPress?

WordPress

Uhm I'm a newbie at blogging ,how does one make his blog have categories ??Would really appreciate any info
BTW Cooldolly..com is the blog

You're Right. Even Quick Traffic Is Bad. Buying Email List Is Also Bad.
