S1:E1 - What Kind of Blog Should You Start? (Hobby, Business, Portfolio, or Authority)
Manage episode 502435562 series 3606149
So… what kind of blog should you start?
This question keeps so many beginner bloggers stuck — spinning in confusion, second-guessing every niche idea, and wasting months (or years) trying to turn a passion project into profit.
In this powerful, gut-honest episode, Genasys pulls back the curtain on her own story — how she blogged for two whole years and made $0 — and the moment everything changed.
You’ll learn why most blogging advice is outdated, broken, and designed to keep you broke… and why the key to a profitable blog is to stop trying to make your blog the business, and instead start with the business first.
