TOOLS + PRODUCTS WE LOVE

01.

Wordpress.org

I know it’s confusing when you are researching how to start a blog! But the main thing is to make sure you are starting a self-hosted WordPress site (not wordpress.com kind)

02.

BigScoots

You will need a web host for your self-hosted WordPress site. I highly recommend BigScoots. I think they are the best! Top-notch customer support team that has helped me with any issue that I have had and answered all my questions over the past couple of years!

Email Marketing

Grow your email list with the help of Flodesk. I love the emails and integrations that I can create using Flodesk. They give you the ability to design beautiful emails to send to your subscribers.

Check out flodesk.

17th Avenue Designs

There are so many themes out there to choose but I love 17th Avenue’s beautiful and feminine blog designs. My blog theme is their new Savannah theme built on Kadence.

My Blogging Must Haves

Graphic design

Canva —

I use Canva daily to create images for my Pinterest and other social media. Plus it’s where I create printable art pdfs and ebooks. ( I get templates for ebooks on Etsy designed for Canva)

photo editing

Adobe Lightroom—

Photo editing is a big part of lifestyle blogging. I edit all of my photos on Lightroom before uploading them to the website.

SEO Keyword Research

KeySearch—

Easy to navigate tool for doing your keyword and SEO research before you write a post. Plus it’s much more affordable than most SEO sites out there!

My Tech Gear:
