When I started Digital Photography School back in 2007, RSS was being hailed as the Next Big Thing. Which may explain why around 90–95% of our eBook and course sales come from our emails, even though we post the same offers on our blog and social media channels. Don’t have an email list for your blog yet?

Deep down they did it because they want to be ‘internet famous’ like Nomadic Matt , and fund their travels with sponsored posts, banner advertising, affiliate sales, eBooks, the list goes on. They want to be ‘location independent’, the great buzz phrase of blogging superstars! But we all know that’s a load of garbage, right?

For example, I found talking to many bloggers who blog about spirituality of different faiths or politics that advertising doesn’t always work so well on some of those, particularly advertising with advertising networks like Google’s AdSense. Number four is related to that because it’s still advertising.

Joanna: Just an introduction to the audience, back in 2007 I read your book, From Entrepreneur to Infopreneur , which helped me decide to start my own author business. It's so funny, people are like, oh it was so easy for you back then when you published in 2007. So welcome back to the show, Stephanie. Thanks for having me.

Joanna: And again, I find this so interesting because when I came into indie sort of 2007 — and we're not Amazon bashing for people who are feeling angry — Amazon has been amazing for authors. What's happening in the zeitgeist is — back in 2007, it was traditional publishing was the only way to go, and then here's this other way.

No point in sending a Fitness Offer to people who signed up to a blog about Knitting & Crochet and vice versa. Likewise, if you Buy Traffic (pay-per-click or Facebook advertising) you need to know your audience and what motivates them! They want to buy a quarter-inch hole!”

Over time—you know, it was going pretty well—but in around 2007, with the global financial crisis and all of those kinds of things, kind of everything just started falling apart, and it wasn't going well. It's just an advertisement for the book. Like, should it just be to come over and read your blog posts?!

This was back in late 2007, when the conventional blogging advice was to choose a niche – as narrow a niche as possible. I named my blog The Office Diet (if you’re really curious, it’s still online— www.theofficediet.com ) and focused on writing about healthy living for office workers. Originally at: Blog Tips at ProBlogger.

Many experienced bloggers are slowing down on new content, while increasing traffic to to their blog by revising posts they’ve already written. Individual blog posts tend to get the most traffic on your site, which means there’s gold in them thar archives. Your archives are really important. Any asset depreciates.

They respond to comments on blog posts, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, email etc. Leo seemed to burst onto the blogging scene – seemingly from nowhere – back in 2006-2007. However I do think there are times where it’s probably well worth having a burst of concerted promotional effort to grow your blog.

Whatever niche you’ve chosen, chances are there are already hundreds (if not thousands) of blogs out there covering the same niche. When I started blogging about photography back in 2007 there were already hundreds of photography blogs around. Don’t write blog posts to bring in traffic. Please don’t.

Lots of benefits of building this kind of engagement on your blog, which I won’t go through, but it really will help you to grow your blog. Advertisers want to advertise on blogs that have engagement. Alongside that, occasionally, you do a post that actually adds up even bigger. I wrote it in 2007.
