I receive comments, tweets etc daily, some asking me the same question. I figured it would only make most sense to create a page dedicated to the most popular and repeatedly asked questions.
Q) How long have you been blogging?
A) Since the 10th April 2014.
Q) What do you use to take your blog photos?
A) From January 2016 until October 2017, all photos had been taken on my Canon Powershot SX400. Previously, my photos were taken on my Olympus VG-170. Since October 2017 however, I have been using the Canon EOS 1300D.
Q) Is blogging hard?
A) To an extend, yes! But don't let that put you off - the hard work most definitely is rewarding and does pay off.
Q) Were you scared to tell people about your blog?
A) I wouldn't say I was scared as such, I was more nervous. Once I came over the hurdle of telling one/two people, I was more confident in sharing the word. The hardest part was probably for me to explain what a blog actually is!
Q) I want to work with brands. What is your advice?
A) I was blogging for 9 months before I first started to work with any brands, I didn't want to rush into anything. Many people start blogging just for the "freebies" but if that's your intention, please just stop blogging! I blog because it's my passion, but working with brands is an added bonus in my opinion. Many people like to wait until brands branch out to them, however, with so many blogs nowadays, it's hard to get noticed. Firstly, I emailed many brands - and it worked! Once your blog grows, you'll notice brands contacting you!
If any more questions occur or you wish for some to be answered, please don't hesitate to leave a comment or pop me a tweet!
How big was your following before you began contacting brands? And what did you say? I just have no idea where to start!
ReplyDeleteI can't remember exactly how big it was, maybe around 10k views and it was, as I said above, 9 months old. I just told them about my blog if I'm honest! x
