I can’t get back in to my word pess settings now at all not even to change it back. What should I do???
Hey Shelley! There’s likely a technical issue going on behind the scenes that may require some insight & help from the support team of your hosting company. Did you go with Bluehost to power your blog’s hosting? If so, I know their support team is extremely helpful… so log into your Bluehost account and hit the chat button with them—they’ll get this problem sorted out quickly.

Hi Ryan, I been following your blog from a couple of months now and I can surely say your content is next to none.
Actually I plan to start a new blog and I want to know, can all niches be monetized?
Great to hear you’re getting started soon, Osayande!
The short answer is that yes, pretty much any niche can be monetized in some way (as long as there’s proven demand/a decent number of people searching in the niche). It might take a healthy dose of creativity to figure out the best way to monetize your blog in a particular space, but it’s possible. Check out my detailed guide on how to pick a profitable blog niche—it’s linked to from section #1 and #2 in this guide here above.
