About

I spent six years blogging badly. This is what finally worked.

This is not a course. I’m not trying to entice you into a funnel.

This website is the resource I wish I’d had when I first started blogging.

I really, really wanted to create a step by step blogging guide, but blogging doesn’t really work like that.

It’s all fine and dandy at first:

  1. Pick a niche
  2. Plan your content
  3. Set up your site.

So far, so good.

But then…it all kind of starts to happen at once.

  • You have to assume that SEO won’t be your main source of traffic but you should still optimise for SEO.
  • Ensure you’re Pinterest ready but don’t start on Pinterest until you have a decent amount of content.
  • And most importantly; have a monetisation plan from the start, even though you have no traffic.
  • BUILD YOUR EMAIL LIST

It’s a lot to learn especially if simply want a lil extra cash for writing but TRUST ME, once you get your head around it, you’ll be fine.

If I, a somewhat tech-averse, type C person in her forties can do it, you definitely can.
