ooooo… What the heck should I be doing now?
Well, at this point, you are probably in one of two camps:
You’ve started your blog and are looking for some additional direction on what to do next.
You haven’t started yet because you’re a bit overwhelmed by the colossal amount of information we have dumped on you over the last 5 days…
I get it.
There is a LOT to take in and this was just a beginner crash course in getting started!
To help you get a better understanding, I want to go over the path to becoming a successful, six-figure blogger.
These are the exact 4 steps that we took to earn six figures with both of our blogs!
STEP 1. Start a Blog
You need to have the right foundation in place if you want to eventually make six figures with your blog.
This is what we discussed in Day 1 and Day 2 of the blogging bootcamp.
Choosing a niche, selecting a blog name, and setting up WordPress and hosting!
STEP 2. Build and Launch Your Blog
On this foundation, your blog should have really awesome content that will help you begin to build relationships with your customers.
This is what we discussed in Day 3 and Day 4 — writing blog posts and beginning to drive traffic to your blog.
It’s also a good time to start an email list around this stage so you can start turning your readers into subscribers.
STEP 3. Make Your First $1,000/Month With Your Blog
Once you have written a few blog posts and you are getting a steady steam of new visitors to your content, it’s time to think about monetizing that traffic.
This is what we discussed in final day of the blogging bootcamp.
Ads, sponsored posts, selling services, and affiliate marketing are great ways to start monetizing your blog to make your first $1,000.
STEP 4. Become a Six-Figure Blogger
This is the final frontier for most bloggers. It’s turning your blog into a $10,000/month passive income machine.
To really scale your income, you will need to master email marketing and potentially creating your own products and services!
These are the exact steps that we took to turn Avocadu into a six-figure blog and then again with Create and Go!
Now, this is just a 30,000-foot overview of the steps.
And right now, you are somewhere between Step 0 (haven’t started) and Step 2.
A lot of you are probably feeling a bit like this…
You’ve started your blog, purchased your domain name, and you’re ready to hit the ground running!
You’re trying to decide what theme to use… Trying to figure out how to use that theme…
The header images, the columns, the pretty headlines, the newsletter sign-up…
You also have posts and pages, different types of menus, headers, footers, and all sorts of customizations to work through.
You’re looking at someone else’s blog for ideas and banging your head against the wall trying to get your blog to cooperate and look like theirs… You’re tired and frustrated and wondering if you have made a colossal mistake because you are in way over your head. Other people (ahem, Alex and Lauren) make it look SO easy, right???
WHAT AM I DOING WRONG!?
We get it, guys. We’ve been there.
So, what’s the deal? Why is this so hard?
