    How to Drive Traffic to Your Blog!

    July 19, 2018 /

    The biggest struggle with running a blog is getting people to read it!  It seems so basic, but if you are not driving readers to your blog, how do you expect anyone to find it!?

    As a teacher, we’re not known for being in a profession where we’re making a ton of money. But like everyone I have bills to pay and want to still live a life I can enjoy. Because of this, I am always looking for ways to pick up some extra money. I have compiled a list of all the things I do or have done to bring in some extra spending cash. None of these are going to make you instantly rich, but if you put a little time into them, you can earn some side cash. 1. Start a Blog If I can start a blog, then anyone with…

    February 19, 2018 /

    Starting a blog is an exciting thing!  But it can also be stressful if you’re not prepared.  Make sure when you decide to start your blog, that you are ready.

    A few months ago I decided to start a blog.  But, I felt lost about how to make my blog successful!  I didn’t know what to post about, how to get attention to my blog or how to monetize my blog.  So like most of us, I went to Pinterest and started researching how to build and monetize my blog. I found that one of the keys is Pinterest Traffic. After taking several free email courses, I stumbled upon Create and Go.  The authors of Create and Go, Alex and Lauren, have run two successful blogs and have created courses to help you do the same.

Let’s Take it Way Back I went to college to become an elementary school teacher.  I thought I was destined to become Miss Honey from Matilda.  But, as we have all learned, God had other plans. After college, I began subbing and working as a paraprofessional while I worked on my Masters.  Because, that’s what I was told, you HAVE to get your Masters Degree.  Due to some unforeseen circumstances (which is a long story…
