Thank You so much! <3

Hi Vira

I upgraded my plan only when I surpassed 100K monthly pageviews, and that was several years back. I assure you that with Bluehost’s Basic plan, you won’t encounter any issues with 15,000 monthly visits. In my experience, upgrading to another plan is only necessary when your website reaches over 100,000 monthly pageviews. Some bloggers do it at 50,000+ traffic. I have personally hosted two blogs with Bluehost, and only after they both exceeded 120,000 monthly pageviews, each, did I decide to make the upgrade. My other smaller sites are hosted with the Bluehost basic plan becuase you really don’t need extras at that stage.

I hope this helps! If you have any further questions, feel free to ask.

Yes, you can definitely share affiliate links along with Adsense advertising on your blog posts. In fact, many bloggers do this to diversify their income streams and maximize their earning potential.

However, it’s important to note that Google does have strict policies when it comes to the use of affiliate links and advertising on your blog. For example, you cannot promote any affiliate products or services that violate Google’s policies, such as products related to adult content, violence, hate speech, or anything illegal. On top of that, you must disclose to your readers that you are using affiliate links and that you may receive a commission if they make a purchase through one of your links.

As long as you follow Google’s policies and guidelines for the use of affiliate links and advertising on your blog, there should be no harm in using both. In fact, it can be a great way to increase your earning potential and provide valuable resources and recommendations to your readers.

I hope this helps, and I wish you all the best in your blogging journey!

So glad you found this tutorial helpful. Leave me a note to let me know you’ve started your blog! I’m always happy to help!

Hi Ling.
I really enjoyed your step by step tutorials on how to set my own blog. I also found your advice highly enlightening. And it was just like walking a long journey with the confidence that you have a well versed guide and mentor besides you. Thanks lots Ling.

I’m so glad you find my tutorial and blog posts helpful! ❤️

I think you’re referring to the side bar with your profile image? That is considered a widget – this one is around page 160-165. You’ll have to drag and drop the widget from left to right side. That is an image. And the text is a separate widget for you to mention a little about yourself. It’s easier when you look at my screenshots from the book.

As for menu link, it should show up when you create a page called about me. That is in the ebook as well. Chapter 5 covers this from the menu to the creation of “about me” page.

I hope these references help. Sometimes it takes a while to play around with the functions to get familiar with it. Also, it may be dependent on the blog theme you choose since not all themes are created equally.

Just keep learning. I know you’ll get the hang of it!!
