Blogging

The best resources all bloggers need to know about

Over the last couple of years I’ve started investing in my blog to really improve it and considering I increased my blog views by 1000% and doubled my income in 2020 I’d say it’s working. So here are the best resources all bloggers need to know about.

After 10 years in the blogging world I’ve come across my fair share of great resources but ones that are an absolute waste of money too. To save you the hassle of seeking out the resources you need to be using I’ve compiled them all here into one easy list.

Making money from blogging

There’s only one lady’s products I’d recommend for learning everything you need to know about making money from your blog and that’s Kayleigh. She is regularly making over £10,000 a month from blogging so she definitely knows what she’s talking about. She has an abundance of great products to check out. You can get to her store here or check out each product individually if something in particular catches your eye:

A Beginners Guide To Affiliate Sales
Pitching To Brands & Creating Lasting Brand Relationships
The Ultimate Guide To Blog Monetisation
How To Master Gumroad Product & Affiliate Sales

Kayleigh’s guides are so easy to follow and full of practical advice to really start making money with your blog. Kayleigh is an absolute blogging queen and she’s one of the very few people I trust to create amazing guides where the advice in them actually works.

Mastering Pinterest

Pinterest is an area that I have spent a lot of money on. I have bought so many guides and courses and the only one I would recommend is Mariam’s guide. This amazing lady has almost 10 million monthly unique views on Pinterest and get’s 10,000 sessions A DAY (!!!) on her blog all thanks to driving traffic via Pinterest which is just incredible to say the least. The guide has 100 pages of useful tips and is regularly updated to reflect Pinterest’s ever changing recommended best practices. Don’t worry, once you’ve bought the guide you get all the updates free too.

The Ultimate Pinterest Marketing Guide

Every time Mariam’s guide gets an update I make sure I have a refresh of the entire thing I go over exactly what I should be doing to make Pinterest work.

Setting up your blog

When it comes to writing and promoting blog content I’ve actually written my own blogging guide all about this! After spending money on guides that really weren’t worth it I knew I wanted to create my own, super affordable guide that was actually helpful. That’s why blog guide is only $10 (around £7). 6 websites every blogger need to know about is a 24 page guide detailing all the free to use websites that help me write and promote content and ultimately get it seen by people. This is the blogging strategy I use and what helped me grow my blog views by 1000% last year. I went from 7,000 blog views in 2019 to over 58,000 views in 2020 by using what’s in this guide!

Understanding SEO

When it comes to SEO there’s only one lady you need to know about and that is Nele. Her SEO guides are incredible! It’s always an area of blogging I’ve struggled with but they explain everything so simply. I really want to increase how much organic traffic I get on my blog so I’m going to be going back over Nele’s guides again to make sure I’m getting everything right.

SEO For Bloggers
Keyword Research For Bloggers

I truly believe that investing in your blog can really help you grow, it’s just about finding the right resources. I hope these guides can help you as much as they’ve helped me!

    These are genuinely some of my favourite resources as well.

    I think since I started spending money and really investing myself it was a subconscious decision to take my blog to the next level, to start believing in myself more.

    Great post, highly recommend x

      Thank you! I think that’s it, once you start investing in your blog it pushes you to do better so you’re not wasting that money.

    I have so much on my to do list when it comes to learning about blogging. I have the seo ebook and I’ve not looked into it yet. I really need to set some time aside to improve my blog and stats. Thanks for sharing!
