That’s great.Glad you liked this.
Setting up my blog with a Custom Domain and self hosted WordPress was among the best decisions of my life. It also has got me to places that I had earlier thought wouldn’t be possible.
Setting up my site at first was such a headache but it is nice too see your journey.
Thank you for opening up and sharing your journey. This is a great read.
a journey so well weaved in words!
Truly a candid and straight from the heart post ๐
It is indeed an achievement and liked the honest writeup ๐
Loved your blogging journey! Really Inspirational
Setting up your site can definitely be tricky!!!! You need to know so much!
Congratulations on your upcoming blogging anniversary. Thank you for sharing your journey.
Thank you for all this info and it is really very helpful :))
Amrita, this was a really cool way of sharing your journey with us. And how kind of Pat!Universe I say is very conspiring in nature. ๐
congrats on the self hosting blog Amrita! all the best for the future too. Your post is really commendable, selfless ad of course impressive!
I dedicated the whole of yesterday designing my blog! Hence, the late comment. I agree that designing and getting a theme is a pain and I am glad Pat came to your rescue. Moreover, it shows the power of communication.
It is wonderful to see that you have selflessly shared your experiences. It says a lot about you as a person. Thank you so much for this informative post. Keep writing.
Thanks so much Mayura.It’s very kind of you .I share so that I can help just like I was helped.That’s the only way to take it forward.You cannot really repay good deeds.You can only try to do another good deed.I really appreciate your words.
It was a delight to read your journey to set up your site.
Thanks Sneha
I was happy to read more about the person behind the blog and your journey from when you began to here. I am so happy that you decided not to give up and that you are persevering. Great job!
Thank you soo much Sheriff. Yes perseverance is my real name????
You know I have always wondered how easy or difficult it is to manage self hosting but seeing that you have been getting good support from the team, I am thinking whether it should move to self hosting. I am sure it opens a whole new world of opportunities for bloggers :D.
Self hosting makes blogging more than just a hobby. It’s a lifestyle and a fun one.
Hey Amrita! Such a wonderful post on how you started your blogging journey! Glad you shared your experience in such a balanced manner ????
Glad you liked it.I was a bit apprehensive to share this at first.But then I thought a good deed needs to be shared????
That’s awesome mam.
Being a doctor, technically you have done awesome thing, being a new to this blogging world you looks like an mentor to me :), and by the way I do like ENT, and post myself mostly in ENT ots ๐
Thank you sooo much. That’s good that you like ENT OTs. Many anaesthesiologists hate Mastoid surgeries.They would rather give spinals????.The techie part of blogging was a challenge and fun.Happy to help in anyway.Thanks for the encouragement ????
Setting up a theme and running a site involves so many steps. Glad they were providing all the help ๐ Loved reading about your journey.
It’s easier than I feared.Thank God for all the help studiopress provided.
It was doable with total concentration.
Amrita, this was so interesting, reading about your blogging journey and also about Pat’s kind gesture. I believe if you do something whole-heartedly, the universe conspires you to succeed at it! All the very best in your blogging journey.
Yes Pat was very kind.Makes you realize how powerful gestures like these are.Being kind to family and friends is easy.Being kind to strangers need heart.
Thanks for the appreciation. Very grateful ????
This is cool ๐
Thanks Ruchi
I like designing my own blog too I just don’t know how to do everything I want.
Neither do I .Valerie I was totally clueless.I have GoogleD till my phone shut down or my eyes????
That’s so great that you went for it – and got it! Congrats on your upcoming blog birthday!
Thanks Lois.I hope to do something special for this birthday.????
I havenโt seen this blog theme yet but It sounds fast loading. I need to check it out!
Yes Jasmine do try it out????
I think everyone can design there own blog differently however the way they want it to be. I personally rather have my blog the way I want then pay someone else to do it for me because it’s something orginal you know, but than again if you have the money go right ahead.
You are right .It’s all about what you want.If it makes you happy you do it yourself or you pay someone. Either way it’s about you.Thanks for reading ????
Congrats on your blog birthday! I’m loving the new layout! Keep the great posts coming!
Thanks Lakisha for such kind words.
I’ve been blogging for awhile now too and what I’ve learned is there is always room for growth and change. A blog is like a living thing and has to be “cared for”, I guess. I really like the look you’ve got going!
Thank you so much.You are very kind and you are absolutely right.Anything which you want to grow needs love and care.I love learning and tinkering about my blog.
Starting a blog is tough, and there are so many options out there. The best thing to do is do your research and find options that work best for you.
Yes you are so right.
That’s incredible Pat responded and helped you! Just goes to show that it never hurts to ask for help! Yay!
Thanks Sondra,yes it never hurts to be sincere .Glad you liked this
Yes Pat responded and was sooo kind.Thanks Sondra you got the excitement I felt????
Congratulations on everything. I always say don’t make decisions for people. Let them tell you no. Don’t tell yourself.
That’s an amazing way to put it.Will remember ????Thanks for reading.
What a great story. As I was reading I was worried there was not a happy ending. I am so glad you got it all figured out and they were very responsive to getting everything running for you. Cheers from a fellow blogger.
Thanks so much.I am glad it was a happy ending too.I hate sad stories.
I love reading about your blogging journey and how your persistence has lead to success. I wish you many more years of success

Bloggers Pit Stop
PS I am going to check out Pat Flynn
Thanks Kathleen. The generosity was beyond anything I expected.God teaches us something everyday.
I definitely understand you. I am starting also my blog, well, I started it last July. I am doing everything on my own, and did not know anything about blog before. So I am struggling with everything, it is so frustrating… The blog design, visuals, branding, learn to post, learn social media, promoting your posts, looking for facebooks groups, pinterest, design a good opt-in, analytics… It is a lot of work but I am still learning, hope eventually it get easier.
Hi Let, it will get easier definitely. Don’t forget to check out amylynnandrews.com for easy blogging tips too.And you can always write to me too.????
I’m glad that they were able to help. I checked out the SPI Pro Theme and it looks terrific. Miracles do happen, it’s an amazing feeling when they do.
Thanks Chavonne for checking out the SPI theme. They have done great
I just got started with it.But if already made my blog look better.
I love the information you share. It’s fun reading about your journey.
Thanks Valerie
This is a great journey to blogging, and I’m glad you’ve been persistent! Health/wellness and motherhood are two of my favorite areas in the blogging world ????

Aw that’s really lovely! One thing I’ve learned about the blogging community is how warm and welcoming it is.
It’s so exciting to have a blog birthday coming up soon!
This is an amazing story and really says a lot about what Pat Flynn prioritizes: people!
Absolutely Ivannar. What I really really loved abput this was he understood the problem quickly and solved it without advertising his generosity.
That says a lot about Pat Flynn as a person .
Strengthens your faith in humanity.
No I haven’t seen this blog theme yet. Off to take a look now.
Hi Jemma,the theme is very clean and fast loading.My main interest was in these two criteria.Do have a look and tell me what you think
I always love reading about other people’s blogging journeys. Starting a blog is one of the best decisions I ever made!
