My Blogging Do’s & Don’ts!

Hi everyone! How are you? ❤️ Today I’m going to be doing something that could be slightly controversial depending on the mood you’re in 😏 (don’t worry it’s not at all controversial 😂). This post is all about my blogging do’s and don’ts (I cannot tell you how long I’ve wanted to do this!). Instead of outlining my pet peeves I thought this would be a more productive/useful way to share what in my opinion should be done differently. I think a lot of them are widely shared within the community so I’d love to hear your opinion + your do’s and don’ts as well! 😃 Lets get straight to it! 👏


Do: be inspired by others and if necessary quote them if your post came to mind after reading theirs.

Don’t: steal someone elses work, you’re not a writer let alone a blogger if you do so.


Do: Read a post and comment something in regards to it (if you have the time to comment at all).

Don’t: Comment on another person’s blog solely to advertise yourself as it is rude.


Do: understand your self worth and know that there is only one you in the whole of existence.

Don’t: compare yourself to others. When you find yourself doing this just block it out (whenever I have something I don’t want to think about my sister has always told me to think of a “stop” sign).


Do: listen to your mind when its trying to tell you that somethings not right or good for you to write about and may not have your full heart and soul in it.

Don’t: write something just because you think it’s what others want to hear/read only, write something because YOU want to write it and you think it could be of help to others as well.


Do: believe in your ability to create good content!

Don’t: put yourself down when a post doesn’t go so well. You gave it your all and that is what matters.


Do: take a break if you are at a loss for inspiration or feel like you need one despite having the ideas (save that gold! 😂).

Don’t: blog until you drop.


Do: keep going strong and doing what you love!

Don’t: ever give up.


Thank you for reading! 😉 Do we share any blogging do’s and don’ts? What are your do’s and don’ts? Let me know and have a great day! ❤️

  1. I’m loving these tips, Elsie! It’s definitely important to take a break every now and again. I’ve had a couple of blogging breaks throughout the year just to focus on myself, and they were so helpful. 😊 Amazing post, dear! x

  2. Such an amazing post 😍✨🙌 I really loved it so much! It’s important to write about what we give our soul to and makes us happy rather than making posts just for others. It’s our blog and we decide the content. I agree with you. I also agree that it’s important to not steal someone’s work because that’s just rude. It takes a lot of time to write and blog. It’s important to mention someone’s work.
