You start a blog. Then realize you need to learn. A lot. And courses are getting pitched and recommended all over the place! Where do you start?

If I’ve learned one thing blogging it’s that money should be invested. But the second is that you can find tons of great information for free. The list below is focused mainly on free blogging courses, but also includes a few blog posts, videos, and printables that are detailed and almost the equivalent of a course!

Keep in mind- when taking these courses- that many are sales funnels. That means they will have some promotion for a paid product within the course itself. My best advice is to think seriously before buying. It’s very easy to get sucked into buying too many resources and then never finishing them. Take the value given for free, then decide if you need more information.

I tried to include courses that looked good, but haven’t had the time to personally watch all of these hundreds of hours of video. So, please (PLEASE), comment or contact me ([email protected]) if you find a course that is particularly spectacular or one that isn’t useful or is nothing but a sales pitch.

One quick thing: you absolutely have to check out my Blogging Resources for a Successful Blog page! Everything from How to Start a Blog to 100+ Blogging Resources to information about Where to Find Free Graphics (and much, much more!). I also have a FREE Printable Blogging Binder– 50+ page for you to organize and grown your blog.

Paid Courses:

Before the free courses, I should mention the courses I feel ARE worth money. Almost everything I’ve learned from blogging has been from those resources or free courses. I personally suggest- if you’re looking at buying- the following resources:

Pinning Perfect

Genius Blogger’s Toolkit (currently closed)

Free Courses on Blogging & Business:

Sticky Blogging Free Course– 5-day e-mail course that teaches you how to get more traffic with fewer posts. I’ve personally taken this one!

List Building Training by ConvertKit. There will also be some free stuff given to you at the end of the webinar to help you get your first (or next!) 1,000 subscribers!

Free Courses on Monetizing Your Blog:

Product Creation Masterclass by ConvertKit. (waitlist). I took this course last year when it was open and it was amazing! I learned everything that I learned in a course that I paid for. Made me regret spending the money!

Product Launch Formula by Jeff Walker. I took this course. He spends a lot of time on introduction…but once he gets to content, it’s great. I’ve seen the formula recommended elsewhere and have followed it myself.

Launch Your Online Course by Teachable. Since they run the teaching platform that a lot of courses use, I can almost guarantee two things: there will be good content and they’re going to pitch their platform.

Keyword Master Course by Authority Labs. While I personally recommend Mangools for keyword research, take advantage of free training where you find it! Since they run a keyword program, they’re going to pitch their product throughout the seminar…but they also should know what they’re talking about when it comes to keywords!

SEO Spring Cleaning by Caileigh at Odds Ends Creative

Google Analytics for Beginners by Google.

Instagram Course About Photography by The Quinskis

Free Courses on Marketing & Social Media:

HubSpot Learning Center. They have a ton of different learning programs/little classes. I haven’t actually tried any of them yet, but they look interesting. Most are marketing bases- such as Facebook marketing, e-mail marketing, etc., hence me including them in this section.

    Thank you so much for this handy list of resources to jump start the blogging process. I’m on month 4 of blogging and although I’m seeing some growth and improvement, I am just not meeting many of my viewer goals. I’m going to use a few of these courses to try and break through the wall 🙂
