Are you an aspir­ing (Mum)blogger but not sure where to start and how it is done?

I’ve got a good tip for you. Being a begin­ner myself, I have signed up for the Mum-bloggers E-course, run by Erica from Lit­tle­Mummy.

Divided into three courses of 10 weeks each (Begin­ner, Inter­me­di­ate and Advanced) she takes you step by step through the basics, such as start­ing a blog, posts and pages and com­ment­ing eti­quette, basic SEO, join­ing groups and reviews and com­pe­ti­tions — and more. She tells me that the Inter­me­di­ate and Advanced courses will cover  Slideshows, video, analysing blog data, pod­cast­ing, mon­e­tiz­ing, Email list build­ing, newslet­ters .… and finally e-courses and ebooks, so you can end up know­ing how to share your knowl­edge as well!

I am about two thirds through the Beginner’s level. the obvi­ous plus-points is that for free, it is infor­ma­tive and — it is extensive.

What I most like is its struc­ture and care­ful avoid­ance of infor­ma­tion over­load. Thanks to the weekly pace, you actu­ally not get more infor­ma­tion than you can digest dur­ing the startup of a blog.  I see the E-course email in my inbox, it takes no more than 15 min­utes to inter­nalise what it says. Because it is not more infor­ma­tion than I can digest, the mes­sage actu­ally sticks.And I am encour­aged to apply and try what she is talk­ing about.

Also, Erica’s style is to the point, informed and has a friendly tone.

So, thumbs up for Erica — and wish­ing all you prospec­tive blog­gers out there some happy reading!
