Got My First Like on My Blog… Really Motivated to Keep Posting

It’s been 4 days since I launched my blog and just got my first like! It might seem small, but this little milestone feels like a huge boost right now. I’m so glad I decided to start posting without overthinking everything. Anyone else remember their first bit of feedback? Those early wins really keep you going.

Congrats! I started blogging about 4 months ago, and my recent motivation is making $0.85 from Amazon Associates. It’s not a lot, but it shows people are reading and trusting my advice. That post has been up since the beginning, so it proves older posts can still get traffic.

Wow, that’s amazing! 4 months is a short time to start earning. I can see your hard work and quality content paying off. I’d love to check it out.

Cool. What’s your page view count per month?

Not huge. October had 548 views. I’m working on promoting my blog while creating new content.

How do you promote your blog? 548 views sounds like a lot! I got 153 views in a week, which felt good :smiley:

How do you promote it?

Mostly through Pinterest. I also made a Facebook page but haven’t done much with it yet. Here’s my Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/jordan_evee/.

Stay motivated even when results are slow. Blogging takes time. I’ve seen so many projects start slow but pick up in later years!

I’m in the same boat. Better to hit publish now and refine as we go.

That’s exciting! What’s your blog about?

Thanks! I was really surprised to get any response so quickly.

That’s awesome! The first like is a big step. I just launched my blog too, coded it with Next.js to practice, and I jot down daily thoughts. Still need to add a like button though

Thank you! I’d love to see your blog. Could you share the link? And it’s cool that you’re self-taught in coding! I’m learning too but still far from building my own site
