How to Create a Website and Thrive ~ Blogging Tips and Tutorials!

Owning a website is a liberating experience. Our thoughts, our work, our designs have a home and we’re eager to share it with the world. Cheers to that! ♥

Realistically speaking, though, it can feel a little intimidating and sometimes daunting trying to figure out the ins and outs of it all. I hear ya. I’ve been there, too.

Creating a website that we’re proud to own is one thing, managing it to maximize reach and outcomes is just as critical, perhaps more so.

If you’re reading this post chances are you have a website or are in the process of creating one. Perhaps you’re still on the fence. If so, I hope these tutorials encourage you to make the leap. Welcome aboard the grand adventure!

Blogging Tips ~ How-To Tutorials

I know many fellow bloggers are hesitant to use the new Gutenberg editor. I totally get it. I was resistant to change, too. The first time I tried to use it, I gave up after 10 minutes. It was frustrating and I was on a mission to write content. So I quickly returned to the old editor. Saved by familiarity.

But I made a mental note to check it out again when I wasn’t pressed for time or focused on writing content. I’m so glad I did. Gutenberg is a blogging game-changer.

Below are a series of posts where I share tips on using the editor with ease. ♥

Gutenberg has so many awesome features, but it gets better. There are numerous Plugins we can use with Gutenberg. Harnessing these tools together offers amazing options to create engaging content. AND they are free and super easy to use.

In addition to Gutenberg, I introduce my two favourite Plugins and share tips and tutorials on their use.

When I discovered these two Plugins I was eager to put them to use. The customization features make them two of the most versatile Plugins I’ve found in six years of blogging.

FREE Awesome Plugins:

• Gutenberg Blocks – Ultimate Addons for Gutenberg
• Kadence Blocks – Gutenberg Page Builder Toolkit Plugin By Kadence WP
