Here's the best advice we discovered for starting an educational blog:

#1: Pete Codes, founder of Pete Codes:

We chatted with with Pete, founder of Pete Codes ($1.2K/month). In our interview, Pete says:

I was able to monetize my website on the very first day by selling a newsletter advert to a developer who had a coding book he wanted to promote.

Additionally:

Deliver what people want in whatever platform you are on. So instead of being lazy and just sending out a link to your blog article, add a few quotes from it to get people interested.

Further:

It’s very important to become a member of a group of entrepreneurs. It’s very hard to start and run a business, both financially as well as emotionally. So you want to have a group of people that can support you along the way.
