    Hi! I know this is kind of off-topic but I had to ask.

    Does operating a well-established blog like yours take a lot of
    work? I am completely new to blogging however I do write in my journal
    daily. I’d like to start a blog so I can share my own experience and views online.
    Please let me know if you have any suggestions or tips for new aspiring bloggers.
    Thankyou!
