Today we have with us, Prerna Sinha, the founder of MaaOfAllBlogs. Prerna has been recently ranked among top 20 mommy bloggers of India which is a huge achievement knowing the fact that women of this region are not considered as enthusiastic as the women from Europe and America. The women of sub-continent are considered to be more focused towards taking care of family and other domestic matters. Prerna has broken all the barriers and proved that women of India are no less than anyone and they can unleash their potential by working hard. Without any further delay, let’s move to the interview.

1. Briefly introduce yourself.

Thanks Aqib. I’m Prerna, a fashion designer by profession, an economics graduate, have worked in the garments industry for almost a decade and always have a lot to say about everything. I’m a full time mom and unlike the working women, the only break I get is when I fall off on my bed.

2. What was your motivation behind starting this blog? Share your story with us.

I was pretty much a full time mommy, until I started penning down my thoughts in a blog like how you would write a diary. Also being the first one among my friends and family to have a kid, people used to turn me for advise. I realized this had potential when my blogs with mommy advise were shared by emails among friends like a bible :). Slowly but steadily, it has taken it’s own identity and today I am a full time work-at-home mommy blogger.

3. How does it feel to be one of the Top 20 Mommy Bloggers of India?

It feels gratifying and am really happy to be listed among Top 20 mommy bloggers of India. It’s a fruit of labor and patience. Hard work definitely pays off.

4. It would have been a tough ride. Mention some of your biggest challenges in blogging career.

I am technologically challenged. I don’t understand SEO and keywords much. I wish I did, and that would have really helped me a lot. While I handle almost all other aspects of the blog, the tech stuff I have to depend on someone, which is a challenge. I blog atleast 4-5 times a week, which is a huge time investment and really takes a toll sometimes. To think of topics and to work on it takes all my time.

5. Can you name a few bloggers or blogs that you follow and who inspire you the most?

I always look out for inspiration and love to follow some wonderful mommy blogs. Heather’s (http://www.mommypotamus.com/) was the first blog i started following. Love the personal touch she brings to each post. In Indian mommy blogs I admire Shruti from (http://www.artsycraftsymom.com/) , she is so creative and her blog is beautiful. There is also Hema from (http://www.mylittlemoppet.com/), being a doctor her advise is sound and so many mommies head to her site. I wish to be fabulous like them someday.

6. Most of the new bloggers struggle with promoting their content. What strategies are you using to promote your content?

I share my content in different FB groups following all rules of those groups, so no spamming! This is my favourite social media tool as most mommies are Facebook friendly. But if you’re a fashion blogger then Instagram and Pinterest are the way to go.

7. Content is king. What is your belief about delivering quality content to the readers?

I totally agree to this and this is why my job gets difficult. I always wonder while writing a post why will readers want to click it open? Am I making it enticing enough for them? While I can’t do Hollywood/Bollywood gossip or tech stuff( two things that get the most traffic) on my blog as it’s a parenting blog, I try my best to offer something fun or valuable with a perky heading and a cover page to catch the reader’s attention.

8. How do you currently monetize and plan to monetize your blog in future?

Google Adsense has not worked for me but I do a lot of collaborations with brands and get paid for it. I also do paid reviews at times.

9. Where do you see yourself in 1 year from now?

I have no idea, but would like to be the ‘fit mommy blogger’ of the year and hopefully on the top of the list next time.

10. You are an inspiration to many. What is your message to all the mommies who want to start a career in blogging?

I started the blog with just sharing my thoughts. But as time passed brands discovered me. That’s when Eureka happened and I realized that this was a really flexible entrepreneurial opportunity. I could write whenever I wanted, and whatever I wanted. I could be the voice and a shoulder to cry on and earn while doing that. I can be travelling and schedule my posts, my house help may not arrive one day but I don’t have to miss a day at work(blog). So I think any mom who has an inclination to write should try this as an option. You could do recipes, if you don’t like writing much. There is so much scope here.

11. What is the best way to connect with you?

To know what am I up-to, check out my tweets.
To follow my adventures head here.
And to read my posts go to my Facebook page.

Thank you Prerna for taking out the time for this interview. I wish you a great blogging career and may you succeed by leaps and bounds in the years to come.

Today we have this amazing young lad, Ammar Ali from Allbloggingtips.com. This guy, owns a property worth $100,000+, requires no introduction. An enthusiastic young lad who enjoys being his own boss while working from home. You must be wondering how did he manage to do all this at such young age? Well you will find answers to all of your questions in this interview. This interview is truly meant to motivate all young minds who always fancy making monies from the comfort of their home. It is no fake and this guy is going to exactly explain how he managed to do this all.

Without further ado, let’s begin the exciting stuff.

1. Please tell us about yourself.

Thanks for having me here, Aqib.

I’m Ammar from allbloggingtips.com. A blogger, WordPress addict, and front-end developer. I’m an undergraduate student aiming for Bachelors in Computer Sciences. You can find more about me here.

2. What was your motivation behind starting a blog? Share your story and inspirations.

I got online back in 2010 and everything seems completely different. I always wanted to have my own website where I could post anything I want and at the same time I also had passion to play around with CSS and HTML to build attractive websites.

I learned a lot during that time period so I decided to start my own professional blog where I would share the stuff I learned so that I can be of help to improve others blog. This is how I started AllBloggingTips.
Now this blog is dedicated to help new bloggers in starting a blog and making a difference over the blogosphere.

3. Can you name a few bloggers or blogs who inspired you the most?

There is no one who inspired me to jump into blogging and start a blog. It was something that I always wanted to do. I wanted to share my learning experiences. I’m so happy that I started it as earlier as I could.

4. Apart from hard work and dedication, what do you think contributed most towards the success of this blog?

Patience and consistency is the key that leads towards success.

Blogging isn’t something that will make anyone from zero to hero within few days or weeks. It is consistent effort to produce something that your readers will actually enjoy.

5. You managed to establish an online property worth $100,000 in just 12 months. How does that feel?

It feels great! Who doesn’t want to achieve that?

When I started I didn’t imagine that my blog would become so popular within short time. But hardwork actually pays off.

6. You must have faced some challenges and it would have been a tough ride. Is there one you would like to mention here?

The challenges aren’t so much to cover.

It was definitely easier when I started 5 years ago. Back then there wasn’t enough competition as it is today.

The real challenge I’ve seen over the past couple of years is finding the right target audience, keeping them engaged and coming up with epic content.

Another one is improving my English. The Spelling and grammar mistakes lead to great conversations in my comments area

7. Most of the newbies in blogging would ignore the importance of keyword research. Do you think it is something important to consider?

That’s right. When I started, in the initial days, I had no idea about that. If you’re just starting out with a new blog then I’d suggest not to worry too much about SEO at this time.

SEO takes time so if anyone is interested in building an audience quickly, the best way is to find influencers in your niche, reach out to them, share their content, link out to them, create an expert roundups and within no time you’ll see the results.

One more thing, social media will give you quick results so focus on that one too.

8. How do you currently monetize your blog traffic?

Good question!

I don’t use AdSense because I consider it very limited. I have already discussed this in detail here.
I monetize my traffic with affiliate marketing, sponsored posts and banner advertising. Along with that I also work with web design clients.

9. What is your best advice for bloggers who want to make an entry to this business?

The best time to do anything is now! People regret for not doing anything earlier. If you’re thinking to do something, do it now.

Before jumping into this, make sure that you’ve a clear plan about what you want to do in this business. You’ve to bring something unique and epic to make yourself stand out from the crowd.

10. You have inspired many young minds. What is the best way to connect with you?

The best way to connect is definitely my blog. I look forward to see you there!

I’m also available on twitter and facebook.

Thank you Ammar for taking the time to answer all my questions. You are a true inspiration for our youngsters. We wish you prosperity and success in your personal and professional life.
