7 Top Sites To Find Free Stock Photos For Bloggers

September 16, 2020 - by Radhika Prasad - Leave a Comment

As a blogger, one of the most important things to have for your blog is great stock photos. Pictures can attract more readers and ultimately set the vibe of your blog. Professional photos will also increase the result of sales and traffic.

I personally love investing in beautiful professional stock photos for my blog. However, if you’re just starting off with your blog, free stock photos will work perfectly fine for now. Once your blog starts to make more money, then you’ll be able to invest more in professional stock photos.

Paid stock photos often allow you to get better quality photos, though they can also be pretty expensive. Free stock photos can be a great alternative for beginner bloggers.

How To Deal With Haters When Blogging

May 28, 2020 - by Radhika Prasad - 4 Comments

So you’re thinking about starting a blog or may have already started one. You’re excited, passionate, and motivated. You start telling your friends and family about it and you get a bunch of, “Oh, what’s that?” or “Maybe you should focus on your day job” and even, “Yeah that’s not going to last long for you”. I’ve heard all of these plus more!

I recently had a reader email me about how I deal with haters and what I do to not let them affect me. I think this is a very important topic. So I figured why not make a blog post about this subject since I know it’s something every blogger will go through. Not only that, I think every person on earth will experience some sort of negativity in their lives.

Unfortunately, one of the downsides to making positive changes or trying something new in our lives is the people around us sometimes get negative. It happens with people starting new fitness routines or with people who want to start a new business or a blog, or basically anything that’s going to change people for the better.

As they say, “Haters gonna hate”, and people are going to hate!

But not to worry! In this blog post, I am going to give you 5 tips on how to put haters in their place when they start barking!

How this blogger is making $8,000 a month blogging part-time

March 24, 2020 - by Radhika Prasad - 5 Comments

I am always on the lookout for extraordinary people doing extraordinary things. I love showing my readers pieces of proof that anything is possible and you can live the life you want.

Today’s interview is with Jodi Carlson. Jodi has a blog in Girl Scouts, which is a very narrow niche, and she does quite well. I know many people may think that having a blog in a very narrow niche will reduce the chances to earn money blogging. However, that’s not true at all and Jodi is proof of that.

Jodi only blogs part-time and earns around $8,000 a month from her blog. That’s amazing!

Jodi was a Girl Scout Leader for 25 years. She works full-time as a web designer. She was able to pair her knowledge of web design with her experience of being a Girl Scout Leader to create a profitable blog in a very narrow niche.

She is now making money through sponsored posts, affiliates, her own line of products, and her email list which is extremely profitable. It’s very clear from the way she talks about her blog that she really loves what she does.

Jodi’s story is incredibly inspiring because she shows you that blogging in a narrow niche is actually a real possibility.

How I Made $195.63 In September Blogging

October 24, 2019 - by Radhika Prasad - Leave a Comment

Welcome to September 2019’s business income report. This is where I show you how I made money online last month. September was a great month to restart my blogging business. I have a few blog goals that I talked about in my previous blog post. You can find that post here, How To Kick-Start Your Blog In 2019. Let’s take a look at this month’s update and see how I did.

If you’re new to Fire and A Beer, you may be wondering why I would want to publish my income report each month. You can skip to the next section if you’re not new here. 🙂

I decided to start publishing income reports mainly for a few reasons:

Before I started blogging, I knew nothing about making money online. I didn’t even know what a blog was, let alone how to make money from one. I also didn’t think side hustles were worth the effort. I always thought that the only way you could make more money is through raises at your full-time job or going back to school to eventually get a better high-paying job. If it weren’t for others publishing their monthly income reports, I would have never known that making money online with a blog was possible.

I want to publish my income reports because it’s a way for me to look back and see how I’m doing. I think it’s a great way to learn from my mistakes and see what areas need improvement. I want to use my income reports like a journal so that I can really track my progress.

Lastly, I want to show others that making money online is possible and there are many ways to make money from home. I want to inspire others to be in control of their finances and create their dream life. I believe that with the right mindset, hard work, discipline, and a little bit of faith, anything is possible. 😉

It’s not too late! It’s never too late to create the life you want and become your own boss. Having a blog will let you do that plus a lot more!

Learning how to start a blog is not easy. But that’s just like learning anything in life. If it were easy, everyone would be doing it!

Having said that, starting a blog is one of the best things I’ve done in my life!

Blogging completely changed my life in so many ways. It’s amazing to look back and see how far I’ve come with my blog. From not knowing exactly what a blog was, to making an income from it, building a brand, helping and inspiring others, and much more!
