For the longest time, I hated making Reels and TikToks. Actually, if I am being honest, I would go as far as saying that I hated making all videos for one simple reason- it is incredibly time-consuming.
Where I could edit a photo in just a few seconds using tools like Lightroom, editing video took tens of minutes to hours or even days pending length.
I almost even gave up on producing Instagram Reels because I simply found the in-app editing features to be buggy, glitchy, and not user-friendly and it really did not help my already unmotivated self get into it.
It wasn't until I downloaded CapCut (particularly, CapCut's desktop application) and started messing around with the program that I really began to enjoy making Reels and TikToks.
CapCut truly makes this one easy!

Blogging is, we will admit, a dream career. We won't sugar coat it- achieving blogging success is a huge milestone that many of us work to daily.
But what happens after you hit your target for success? Well, for bloggers who have been around a long time, hitting this level also comes with many fears, anxieties, and the push to keep the momentum going as long as possible.

We'll be the first to admit, there is a lot of bad blogging advice out there. We've likely been guilty of it, too.
There are many reasons for why bad advice is a dime a dozen. The landscape changes faster than most can keep up with, established sites have different challenges (and solutions) than those who are starting out, and so many factors work for (and against) each other such that advice that works on Site A may not work at all for Site B even if every other factor was virtually identical.
We could go on.
While these are things we could talk about until we're blue in the face, in this one we want to take a look at the people who give out advice on the internet. Namely, the people who you may want to hesitate before listening to at all.

Google has (seemingly) been making E-E-A-T a bigger and bigger metric with each passing algorithm update.
Gone are the days where you simply can publish whatever you want, for any reason, and possibly rank. Today, Google wants to see many signals to rank you, including why you deserve to rank. That is to say, why are you qualified to write about the content to begin with.
So we thought we'd break down what E-E-A-T is in simple terms and then drop a bombshell you may not like- particularly around the Expertise element of E-E-A-T.
Unfortunately, in this particular instance, it is important to be the expert and not just an expert. This distinction matters.

When my business credit card expired, I had a moment of panic simply because I didn't know what recurring subscriptions I had set up for my blog that were hitting that card. My concern was that if I forgot one I would miss a payment and, perhaps, lose access to a much-needed service, domain registration, or something else entirely.
After taking a few moments, and a few deeper breaths, I started the process of putting together a list of all of the places where that credit card was being used. What resulted was a list of all of my blog subscriptions, and having this one on hand gave me more peace of mind.
So in this one, I thought I'd share more about what kind of subscriptions you may want to track, relevant information you may want to log, and why all of this is important at all!
