Hello everyone!
I'm thinking of starting a blog. I'm learning how to build a blog using WordPress right now. I think building the website and writing content is kind of on the easier side compared to generating traffic for your site. 
Do you have tips on how to increase traffic on your site? I think this will be the part that I will be having a hard time. I tried to make a free blog when I was a kid and I hardly have any visitors.
Thanks!

So true, when I had Windows 8 I used this program to get it back.  Bet the guy made a boatload of money during those days.

I like the Start Menu the most. I missed that when I was still using Windows 8. There's also Cortana but I don't use it that much. I also like the Gaming Mode that they recently added to prioritize your game's processes.  

Thanks a lot, Nathan! I'll go through the free content and try to build a simple system for my family's business. I'll bump this post if I encounter a problem that Google can't help me with.

Thanks for all the resources, Mr. Nathan!
Will do! I'll focus on Laravel now. I noticed that Laracasts have both free and paid content. Will the free stuff suffice for building basic systems? Or are they just offering the free content to gain some leads and the tutorials that have value are all in the paid section? Thanks again, admin!

I'd choose one and roll with it.  Don't split between the two unless you have a good reason.  The syntax and templating is not exactly the same and they have their own flavors.  You'll become an expert in one a lot quicker.  I'd suggest Laravel myself.  That's the recommended and preferred framework we use in PHP for all Prodjex work.  
They have a few outstanding forums:

Thanks for the warm welcome, admin!

I'm in! There's nothing to lose anyway so I see no harm in joining!
