byJohn Ibeh •

These are ALL you need to create and RUN a successful blog without stress:

#1. Laptop / PC

Possess a laptop or a personal computer (PC). A computer is well responsive and has all the features and software's you would need. That's right.
  • Your mobile phone can't do all the work alone.
  •  There's sites your phone can't open effectively. If you've noticed.
  • Not all mobile phone's possesses high earned browsers.

#2. iPad/Tablet

You NEED an iPad or a tablet (android). It could serve as both a PC and a mobile phone (both purposes). Get YOURS!
  • Its easy to use
  • Effective and responsive
  • With a WIDE screen. Exceptionally important.

#3. Mobile Phone

You defiantly would have a MOBILE phone already. Gadgets are the MAIN relevant blogging system factors. They make your work professional.
  •  It could be either "windows", "android" or "apple". Make your choice
  • Use APPS that makes it easier for you. "Like how BLOG MATE (windows app) made it for me".
  • Make's your blog life HANDY. Isn't that great?

#4. Diary & Pen

Get a blogging specific diary and pen. Blogging ideas sometimes comes when your not ready for it. Be "Ever-ready"
  • Compose contents on a book before publishing (for better spellings and performance). This is my SECRETE to a well written blog post.
  • Draft your ideas BEFORE implementing.
  • A "blogger" or "guest blogger" is a "writer". Don't let technology make you forget that. Make use of your pen and paper.

#5. Electricity Needed.

You need TRUSTED electricity to do the work. Blogging drains your gadgets battery life, as well as your brain too.
  • With all the online surfing,
  • Typing and editing,
  • Copy and pasting. Electricity can frustrate you. *like it does to me*

#6.Data Connection

Internet ACCESS is highly needed. Have a specific data package or source. You can write your contents on a book, type and publish when you have data (i know you might not have enough).
  • A 2.5 GB monthly data can do the job.
  • It all depends on your niche (how well you have to research).
  • Running out of data can discourage your effort. It almost maid me quit blogging.

#7. Idea Source

idea source

Have an idea or topic source. E.g "miss Jane is a fashion designer, and owns a fashion blog. Now, her topic or idea source is typically gotten from her business. That's what a talking about.
  • Ensure it's reliable and would NEVER fail you.
  • Think carefully before choosing a niche.
  • Draft a list of ideas in advance to avoid running out of one.

#8. AdSense Account.

You need an AdSense account to monetise your blog. It's the best ad network so far, especially for blogs. I use them here too.
  • Its FREE,
  • Best / Highest paid (currently)
  • Helps as a sub-content to your blog post.

#9. LASTLY, Time

You NEED time to do all the work attached. Idea planning, post composing, writing, research, editing... Like seriously, you need a whole LOT of time.
  • Schedule yourself.
  • HIRE freelance writers.
  • Work with a team.

Tips:

  • When you blog without the RIGHT requirements, that is when you start feeling like it's sucking your last drop of blood. Then you feel like quitting. *just like I felt too*
  • You mustn't really have all the above essentials to become a successful blogger.
  • The most important requirement is YOU ( the blogger) and your improvisation.
  • All the above is your requirement s to becoming successful in the "ghost blogging business" (as some may call it).
  • Every professional blogger TODAY, used or still uses 72% of these essentials. Be like them!
