Did Google kill blogging?  With Google's "Helpful Content Update" and other algorithm updates, should you start a blog, today?  Here are 5 things you must consider before starting a blog in 2024. Google's Core Update that has been rolling out through March 2024 (as explained in this video - www.youtube.com/watch?v=gawQ8s8pR8s&t;=0s  has caused a lot of pain and questions from bloggers, niche site owners, and affiliates... The big question is:  Is blogging dead? And... Should you start a new blog in 2024? Some folks are saying blogging is gone and it's time to move on to YouTube or social media traffic. Now, I've been teaching folks how to blog here on YouTube for nearly a decade here, and the core How To Blog training is still relevant - www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRPBDCoTaGM&list;=PL0sOKzn__yK2yKtTKx0SS78Q9GLpnZ0l-&index;=1&t;=0s But man folks are scared that blogging is dead. Yet, others are doubling down on their blogs in hopes of a traffic recovery from the Google algorithm update. But, is there a middle ground for bloggers? Can you still use a blog to help you make money online without being all in on Google? Can you rise above the Google algorithm and SEO traffic schemes and still succeed?  Do you need to buy SEO backlinks if you want to make it online? This video reveals the 5 ways that bloggers are still able to use their blogs to grow their businesses online without depending on traffic from Google. And, if you're struggling to drive traffic to your blog, watch this video for some much needed perspective: www.youtube.com/watch?v=sl32PZtFb5Y&list;=PL0sOKzn__yK2yKtTKx0SS78Q9GLpnZ0l-&index;=10&t;=0s Because a Blog should not be your one and only traffic strategy.

Whether you're a total beginner blogger.  Or whether you've been blogging for a decade or more like my wife and I have...
