Reader Q&A

Hi loves! Lately I've been getting a lot of questions about my career, my blog, and my life in general. So I thought I'd take some time to cover some of your most frequently asked questions in one post.

I'm a YouTuber!

Hi lovelies! I just wanted to take a moment to share with you all that I now have a YouTube channel! My first video explains my plans for Sparkle & Mine, so be sure to check that out! I'm planning to do hauls, get ready with me videos, tags, makeup collection, jewelry collection, and tons more!

Hope to see you all there! ♥

The Smart Girl's Guide to Starting a Blog: Part Four

Hi lovelies! Ever since Sparkle & Mine really started taking off, I've had a lot of readers and friends reaching out asking me how to go about starting a blog. I'm often asked what my "secret" is to making my blog successful. And the truth is, there is no magical way to become an overnight hit. The advice I always give is to work hard, be patient, and learn everything you can about the world of blogging.

Of course, that's easier said than done. When I first started out, I was completely in over my head. I had no experience in blogging, and no contacts or resources to help me. So I did what I do best, I Googled. Every question that popped into my head as I went along, I painstakingly combed through page after page on the internet to find the answer. How do you get your blog seen? Where can you find design tools to customize your blog? How can you earn money with a blog? I was definitely giving my search bar a workout.

Since I love you all so very much, I don't want you to have to take the long way like I did. So I've started a new post series where I answer all of those questions and a whole lot more. I hope that by the end of this series, I will have created a thorough guide to starting a blog that makes the process easy and fun! I absolutely love the world of blogging, and I am so excited to share my experiences and insight with all of you!

Now without further adieu, the final chapter in The Smart Girl's Guide!
