Blogging: Because You Want to Do What You Love and Get Paid Too?

If you are like me, you kind of fell into blogging

In 2008 I started a blog. I wanted to share my funny kid stories with my Mom and sisters. Platforms were few and connecting was limited to only subscribers for most hosting sites. I connected with a few wonderful ladies and followed their blogs back. As I started writing more and more essay pieces and my blog started taking a new direction. Just as I was getting into more creative in my writing, my blog host site shut down. I shelved the blog, but kept on writing.

Enter the age of social media

In 2013 I found myself the Social media manager for two of our businesses and a non-profit I was involved in. I was sharing and creating a lot of content, for no wage.

Then one day it dawned on me. I love sharing useful content with products and services I believe in, but there has to be  way a person can get paid doing this. So I began my search into the business of blogging.

That is when I met Ruth Soukup. Literally met her.

I was torn between two options in 2014. I could go to the SheSpeaks Conference in North Carolina or I could join Ruth’s Elite Blog Academy. I know I want to write a book next year so I chose to attend the conference. Imagine my suprise when I found out that Ruth was a live speaker at the conference. I purchased her book How to Blog For Profit without losing your soul. I followed every step and growth followed. I am still building my audience and growing my blog readership by following her lessons every day.

Last year I joined Ruth’s Elite Blog Academy because I decided I wanted to take my blog to the next level. I want to grow my readership and my paycheck by doing exactly what I was doing very well for free. The only changes I made were those outlined for everyone who follows her program.

Over the last six months with EBA, my blog page views have gone from 20 to 2,500 a month. My social media following has gone from a few hundred to 4,500 and growing. These are true, engaged, authentic followers, not spammy purchased followers who won’t buy into your writing and offers.

What if you followed Ruth’s program as well?

This means your voice can be reaching people, your writing can be read and products you create and services you share could be purchased by the people who can benefit from them the most. It is time to stop scrolling and start creating the content for others to share!

If you email me before December 7th and I will email you back a special offer from Ruth herself.

You can sign up here for Ruth’s e-book 7 Surefire Ways to Boost Your Blog Income Overnight for free and you will get updates about uncoming offers. She had a blogging mini-course that will be offered for free on February 16th. You won’t want to miss it. You can sign up for reminders here as well.
