Recently, Instagram discontinued the Legacy API permission (“Basic”) and introduced Instagram Graph API and Instagram Basic Display API. We have updated our BlossomThemes Social Feed plugin with the new API.
To display your Instagram posts on your website, you need to authenticate the plugin to access your media and user information.
If you are using the Jetpack plugin, please deactivate it temporarily. The authentication process will fail if you are interrupted to enter your login credentials.
Besides this, also make sure that you have published at least one post on your Instagram account.
Email Marketing is one of the best methods to grow traffic to your website and grow your business.
“Are you kidding me? Isn’t Email Marketing dead already?”
Well, stats show it isn’t.
People still send and read emails.
In fact, email is the most efficient channel to reach your customers.
Some of the tips and support that I am going to discuss below have also been previously discussed in my How to Start a WordPress Blog post. So, you might want to check that out to understand in-depth what it means to have your own self-hosted WordPress blog. If you have already done that, read on!
You have decided you want to start your own blog.
You know you can make money online solely through your blog.
But the question remains: What is better for you and your goals, especially for making money? Blogger (Blogspot) or WordPress?
If you have ended up asking yourself this question too many times, don’t worry – you are not alone.
This is one of the most common questions that I get asked. Most people seem to be confused about which is the right platform to choose. More importantly, they are not sure if they really want to make a switch from one platform to the other.
I know because I myself have been there.
Thinking about starting your own blog?
Perfect. Because that means you already know how it has changed the lives of hundreds and thousands of bloggers and content creators all over the world.
In fact, today there are bloggers who are making more than $100,000 a month through their blogs. And besides earning such an unimaginable sum of money, they are also able to work from home, travel while they work, set up their own flexible working schedule, and just get more out of their life every day.
Too good to be true?
Not really. You’d be surprised at just how easy and effortless it is to create your own blog for just a few dollars of your money.
Starting a blog is relatively easy.
Making money off it… well, not so much.
To start your own blog, all you have to do is get a domain, a good hosting (shared or managed WordPress Hosting), and create your blog on premium blogging platforms like WordPress.org.
I have discussed this in detail in my post How to Start a WordPress Blog. You can follow the easy tutorial given there and even buy the hosting with Bluehost through our link at discounted prices.
I have also made a list of powerful tools for bloggers and online entrepreneurs.
So let’s get on to the more difficult part…
