These free blogging courses may get you a headstart if you are a new blogger or help you boost your existing blog to the next level.
Blogging is a great way to both express yourself and create a (passive) income stream.
I deliberately placed ‘passive’ between parentheses because blogging takes a lot of hard work. Passive refers to the fact that your posts may remain on the Internet forever, and its ads or affiliate links will generate income accordingly. Now. Back to the hard work.
Even if you are a natural and writing doesn’t take you any effort at all, many different factors can contribute to your blog’s success -or failure.
Tech, SEO, Marketing
These are just a couple of things you will encounter when starting your blog.
Sure. You can start right away on a free blogging platform, and there is nothing wrong with that, but it can impact your ranking in Google. And you write to be read.
Or… You could host your blog yourself. I have mine with Hostinger, giving me a lot more freedom to customize things that might improve the traffic. You could do without it, but a basic understanding of the tech will help you to do so much more with it.
Check out this post to learn more about Domain Authority or this one about Google’s Ranking Factors. Free platforms might hurt your SEO ranking.
And do you have an idea about how to make money with it? Or do you expect that people will click those affiliate links and ads just because they are on your page? And how did they find your page?
The following courses will really help you to get you started or boost your blog, and I hope to add a course of myself one day. Until then, this post contains all the steps you need to start your blog: How to Start a Blog as a Newbie.
Learning From Other Bloggers
What is great about many of these courses is that they are given by bloggers who have been there and learned the hard lessons. And now, they want to teach what they have learned to you.
These free courses are often intended to give you a taste of the quality of the paid courses. That does not make them less valuable.
In fact, the better and useful they are, the bigger the chance that you will subscribe to a paid one, so don’t let these opportunities pass.
Even if they only contained two or three things that you didn’t know, they are already worth your time.

Free Blog Traffic Boost Challenge Review
I tried thisI like thisWebsite: Free Blog Traffic Boost Challenge Review
If you, like me, started a blog without any experience, then the chances are that you missed some of the basics that are now refraining you from growing. Not that I don’t believe in learning by doing, on the contrary, but there are downsides to this approach. Eventually, you find something that you missed in the beginning.
One of the courses I believe to be very useful to bloggers is the Free “Tweak & Peak” 7 Days Blog Traffic Boost Email Challenge For Bloggers created by Ana from the She Approach.In this email course, which will take 7 days, Ana will teach Bloggers what they need to do to improve on their blog to increase traffic.

Free Affiliate Marketing Course
Website: Free Affiliate Marketing Course
For most bloggers affiliate marketing is the best way to monetize their blog, but what approach should you take? Just dropping random links in a post is as pointless as throwing grain on rocks. Sure. Some will grow, but most will not. There are a couple of courses, paid and free, out there that can help you in creating a strategy. This post is about a free affiliate marketing course.
I particularly like the ones that are given by established bloggers, as they not only teach you what affiliate marketing is all about, but they also teach from their own, valuable, experience.
Wrapping It Up
As I wrote before, blogging is hard work, and if you want to start your own blog or take your blog to the next level, then the lessons of experienced bloggers are instrumental. It will save you the time to figure things out yourself or prevent you from making common mistakes.
The courses in this list may have given you a bit of insight into what blogging involves.
What Do You Think?
