Need to Organize Your Blog? Grab This Blog Topic Organization Guide
I know lots of people say to choose the ONE NICHE you want to write about and stick to that on your blog. As in, if you want to write about fitness, keep your blog only about fitness. Or if you want to write about healthy meals, keep your blog only about healthy meals. I think most of us aren’t that focused, though. I don’t know about you, but I have LOTS of passions. I am a mom, a volunteer, an athlete, and a CPA. I love spending time with family, gathering friends at cookouts, and learning new things. I am constantly learning and love to share what I learn with everyone I Keep Reading

How to Become a Six Figure Blogger
*Updated: July 2020* The 2020 BC Stack is Here! A couple years ago, I started purchasing training on all sorts of topics.

How I Plan to Double My Blogging Income to $16,000 per Month in One Year
Hi guys. You all know I don’t like fluff. In fact, I’m kind of allergic to it. That’s why I don’t take it lightly when I recommend a product or service to you. I am so excited because the best course I’ve taken all year long (and I’ve signed up for 12 of them!) is now available to the public. This course is the one I WISH I had written. It's seriously kicking my butt all over the place. It’s called Making Sense of Affiliate Marketing and it’s written by Michelle Schroeder-Gardner of Making Sense of Cents. This course is no joke SO good. Like I think I will be able to double my monthly Keep Reading

2015 Blog Income Recap: $33,500 June – December
My best make money blogging tips EXPOSED! Today I am excited and nervous at the same time to share my income report on the blog. I’ve shared a couple of monthly income reports to date but for some reason sharing a monthly recap seems less invasive than a yearly recap. I’m sharing this annual income report for the same reason I share my monthly reports – so it can give other bloggers an idea of what’s possible and also how much work I had to put in to get the results I had. Some will think I work a lot while others will probably think it’s a pretty sweet work schedule for the Keep Reading
October 2015 Blogging Income Report – How I Make Money with My Blog
How is everyone’s 2016 going so far? If you’re anything like me, you’re going strong on some new blogging goals for 2016. I met my ultimate 2015 goal in mid-December when I *finally* published my long-awaited ebook on blog traffic. I waited so long to publish the darn thing that the title was no longer correct – it originally read “How I Increased My Monthly Page Views from 17K to 350K in 9 Months, but because I published it several weeks after passing the 400K threshold, I ended up adding a + to the 350! I don’t like things to be technically incorrect, so that made me feel better. Keep Reading

So I'm starting this page to list all the podcasts, webinars, ebooks, blog posts and any other educational resources I'm consuming and am LOVING so you can follow along. Let's Keep Reading
