    Congratulations, Michelle. You stayed the course and did the transformation business work, through thick and thin. I know it was hard for you when you 1st started blogging back in the day. But you persevered and turned something you knew nothing about into a full-time business. Not only that, but inspired other to start their own blogging buinesses and earn steady streams of passive income. Keep up the good work! 🙂

    Hey Michelle! I came across your article and I’m so happy I did because reading through your posts really encouraged me to start my own blog 🙂

    I’m only a couple of posts in and I’m surprised at how cathartic it is.

    I do hope my blog will generate some extra cash for me one day, cause let’s face it, who doesn’t want to earn money while sleeping 😂

    Thank you so much for the inspiration x

    Good Job over the Last 10 years. Congratulations! You have done what many others have not, or could not..
    Just have a query. One of your blog posts is Entitled “How To Start A Blog Free Course” Does this mean “How to start a ‘blog-free’ course” or “How to start a Blog — it’s a free course!”,.
    Just wondering,
    Allen

    Hi Michelle!

    I tried a blog about a year ago, but honestly… the hardest part for me was setting up WordPress! Then designing it… and I ended up not fully going “live” because I couldn’t figure out a lot of the technical aspects of making posts/editing them/having them appear how I wanted them to when I published them with the graphics I made.

    I definitely feel like I’m an average techy millennial, but gosh… WordPress can be a monster to master. Do you have any tips? I’d love to re-launch at some point!
