Bluehost is the hosting platform I use for my new websites that I start from nothing. Why? Because it's the cheapest and easiest to use -- especially if you're just starting out with a website or blog. Plus, you get a domain name completely free, which many hosts don't offer. I highly recommend using Bluehost for your first website, and you can get started for $2.95 per month, which is an exclusive NatalieBacon.com offer.

ConvertKit is the email marketing platform I use and recommend. In order to make money with an online business or blog, you need to be collecting email addresses from Day 1. There is a direct correlation between the size and engagement of your email list and the amount of money you make.

It's a super easy to use platform that makes everything you need to do pretty seamless in your business.

Planoly is an Instagram app that I'm obsessed with. Planoly allows you to pre-schedule your posts and move them around so you can see what your feed will look like in advance. I don’t know of another tool to help you grow your Instagram following more effectively than Planoly. I love it!

Constant Contact is an email marketing platform that can help you do just that.
