How a Blogger Expanded Her Income Streams and Engaged Readers in a New Way
As a blogger, do you feel like you’re on a hamster wheel? Do you need to continually feed the machine to keep your blog generating traffic and income?
We continue our Blogger Breakthroughs series with Anita Joyce, who experienced the same problem with her Cedar Hill Farmhouse blog.
Anita was working non-stop on her blog. She didn’t even have time to go to the grocery store or relax with her family.
But the income from her blog was tied to page views, so she needed a breakthrough.
Anita shares what she did to diversify her income streams and engage her readers in a new way. She started a podcast that turns listeners into friends, and a store that provides relevant products and valuable content for her audience.
Anita has some tips to share with you:
Survey your audience to find out what they want from you and what you want to give them
Partner with others to gain expertise in areas you need covered
Don’t give up if you fail. Focus on your failures and learn from your mistakes
When something isn't working with your blog, try something new to diversify traffic sources and income streams. That way, if something does go wrong it increases your income and puts you in a better position to survive.
