I so appreciate how you just KEEP IT MOVING in your content. When I film videos, I struggle with wanting to start over multiple times. I love that you just SHOW UP and SHARE! ❤️❤️❤️
I am a photographer looking to build up my experience and take on a couple extra things to hopefully gain more clients/ land a job in Digital Marketing. I have always really enjoyed the idea of writing as I did it every night for years already before going to bed. This was extremely helpful on how to get started. I will definitely be doing more research on SEO. Thank you!!!
Referring to Tik Tok here, but another video I watched said to put link in comments, not the profile because profile is hard for people to get to where a pinned comment could be seen. Hope that helps. 😊
Ohh! I 100000% agree with focusing on Pinterest but from my experience I’d still grab the handles for other platforms right away because I realized someone took mine and now I have a somewhat mismatched handle and it’s annoying lol Sophias courses are GREATTT btw if anyone was wondering! Definitely recommend! Love you Sophia 💛💛
I am trying to set up my blog. You mention youtube around minute 8:30, and how impressed you are about the traffic you have from it. But in the beginning you talk about numbers on your blog. And immediately I paused the video to check your blog. I guess lots of people do that. Nice content. thanks for all the info.
Can you make a timeline video of average views and income for blogger throughout first 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, 24 months? Or a video on the things to focus on and tackle in different stages of a blog?
Love this, Sophia! I bought your courses a few months back. I love that you are coming at this with experience as a blogger that doesn't just blog about blogging. It's the only reason I was willing to invest in your courses. Thank you for the additional tips here!
@@sumaiyasafdar6845 From what I can tell, Sophia makes the majority of money from affiliate links and ads. Do you have Amazon or a company like it in India? I would say, check to see what affiliate agencies are available like ClickBank or Mediavine. If they are, I don't see why you wouldn't benefit from her courses.
oh, I just saw your channel. It's so cool that you speak Tagalog. I'm half Filipino and can't speak Tagalog or Visayan (my mom's from Mindinao. I was born there and moved here as a baby). So cool that you're learning about our culture!
Excellent video! It was incredibly helpful and insightful! And I would definitely recommend picking up both of her courses. She walks you through every step of blogging and using Pinterest, and they are by far the best courses that I have seen on the subject. Looking forward to more of your content :)
Ive been following your other channel for blog content and didnt even realize you started this channel 🙌🏾 my blog is coming up to one year and it’s been quite the journey 😅
Hi Sophia, I just discovered you and your channel yesterday! 😀 Such great info about blogging. I've had a blog since Sept 2017 and it's been a rough time. I sent you a DM yesterday on your IG about my blogging experience. IG and FB have been absolutely useless to my blog. Total waste of time and energy. Super frustrating. So you're right about that. Hopefully you see the message. Have a stellar day! ✨
Hey Sophia! I have completed both your Blogging and Pinterest courses( thanks so much for creating them! idk how the hell I'd even have begun to start without them). My question is regarding google trends and how the peak dates for keyword search popularity continuously change in them. I know how much you stressed getting out content three months in advance of the peak keyword search popularity, but I was wondering how we are supposed to effectively content plan if the dates that we should have content out by continuously change? I'll type in one of my keywords and it will give me a peak time frame, and the very next day I'll type in the same keyword and it will give me a completely new set of dates. I know you're incredibly busy and I have emailed, but I figured it couldn't hurt to try my luck here too! Also if anyone else in the comment section knows how to deal with this please weigh in! Sorry for such a long comment.
I just go with my first search on trends! I’ve found that doing too much research is bad, bc that research time could be spent on actually writing blog posts, lol. My rec: Do your research 1x and then write the dang post lol.
@@briannehuntsman9215 thank you so much for reading and replying!! That is what I figured would be the best thing to do, though I definitely spent too long re-researching instead of just writing when I first noticed this happening! Off to research once then do the most important part! Thanks again!
Love your genuine and sincere approach. I have been following your strategy using Pinterest to drive traffic and only one month in, I'm at around 25 sessions and am hopeful that in a year or so down the road it will do well. As you suggest, I'm religiously focused on SEO, but was wondering how backlinks work and are they critical to growing a blog. Lastly I'm glad you mentioned not to worry about subscribers yet as in 1 month, I still have NO subscribers!!!!
q. what is happening inside the boards? why should I be moving my pins around and deleting pins? and adding more and more and more pins to my specific board. why should i also put the pin i create into two or more board upon making them or scheduling them.
Sophia how did you stay so hyper focused in the first few years? I've been SEO blogging for about 5 months and I've made about €20 lol. I have faith that I will make money but I keep getting side lined and wasting my time on other projects. What made you stick it out and keep on track? Can you give me any insight on that? Thank you x
Lol I feel this! My blog has had 4X sessions thanks in large part to Sophia’s course, so I’m gonna pop in! (Hope that’s ok!) I found that it’s critical to listen to 30 minutes of professional development a day. I listen to RUclips videos from Sophia on repeat, especially the ones where she talks about paying off student debt. I do this to motivate myself every day, and I also listen to podcasts and books on growing a business every day as well. One of my favorite quotes go something like “Motivation is like bathing. You have to do it every day.” So I listen to 30 min of professional development everyday, M-F. For reference, my blog hit $2700 USD in ad and affiliate revenue last month!
@@BlaQFireNation I think a large part of it was taking her course, and the other part was IMPLEMENTING systems. I was at 12K users (ish) before her courses and now I’m at 45K users a month. I go more into the ins and outs on my blog, but I have been shoving her courses at everyone I know 🤣🤣
When it comes to page views what did you think of using Facebook? Cos Ngl I hate Instagram but I’m scared that showcasing what I’m doing just on Pinterest won’t get me booked as much cos I do a blog about being a performer x
Thank you! Could you please share how do you make money/ how do you get paid? Do I need to set up the method straight away or I don't have to worry about it in the beginning? Thanks
Have you taken her course! It really lays it all out. Her videos are great and filled with tips, but the course has her whole system. It’s worth way more than $129!!!
Great video Sophia! Are you still getting a lot of traffic from Pinterest? I'm a food blogger and just started pinterest about 5 months ago, but I am getting hardly any traffic on my blog from Pinterest. I'm using Tailwind, but just not getting any traction. I've heard other food bloggers say their traffic has died off a lot with new algorithm changes. I was just interested if you are seeing that at all? Thanks so much for the great content!!
How long does it take to start getting engagement on Pinterest and how often do you need to create pins. And how many should you do per blog post? :D. Thanks. Love your content!
Hi !! I’m making a blog and I was wondering if I can get your opinion if my niche is good for potential earnings. So I decided to do an educational blog that focuses on social problems since it’s been my passion for 6+ Years now. I’m also a photographer . Could I potentially run a blog that uses photography and connects it to politics/ social issues? Or should I focus on one thing? What do you think?
Id say do them both but make it so that it narrows the niche you are for example like political photography or something. Have ur niche narrowed down whatever it is will help you rank higher
Hey I am.from india. I want to ask is you course valuable to everyone . Because I really want to buy your course to grow fast. Will it work for an Indian blogger .please reply
👎🏽👎🏽 BOYCOTT ALL TIKTOK!!!!!!! Tiktok condones and promotes the torture and mistreatment of animals posted in Tiktok videos, while its owner who lives in Hongkong, adamantly keeps a blind eye to the animal abuse videos on his ecommerce platform. He has repeatedly chosen to ignore all requests to prevent such videos. All who have Tiktok content are guilty by association.
Love your video seems so original I love how you shared how you started and there was no one I just started @heelstosuits and I get so happy over 3-4 readers ❤
There are some creators who have tried that and found that they lose a ton of organic views. Idk if TikTok has changed it, but there’s a way to create a linktree as a page on your blog! Then you get the hits to your blog & keep your organic views on TikTok
I so appreciate how you just KEEP IT MOVING in your content. When I film videos, I struggle with wanting to start over multiple times. I love that you just SHOW UP and SHARE! ❤️❤️❤️

Yes!! I came to ask the same think.
Have you looked at the income reports on her blog? These kind of act as mileposts/guides for what to focus on and when
I'm so glad I found your new channel! Taking all your advice. Im at my family leaving me comments on my blog. haha
Thank you for sharing! I am learning so much! I'm going to start putting your tips to work and learning SEO

This was so helpful! I've actually done the exact opposite of what you said to do (use Pinterest instead of IG) XD Woops! I'll fix that ASAP.
Your videos are always so helpful! Subbed to both of your channels!
Do you recommend Grammerly? Also amazing videos! Very helpful and you are my blogging ROLE MODEL!
