It would be great to see you do some interviews with successful bloggers who credit you and your courses & videos with helping them to create money making blogs. It would be great to see how the principles work across a diverse array of blogs.
Sophia I appreciate you. I been tuning in for about three years. I love your advice. I like your email course that I took earlier this year. Could you do a video dedicated to Pinterest? It could be for beginners. Also could you do a video on any second year information and what you would change in your second year? I know you been blogging for years and you are an inspiration.
Loved this video! I would love to see more in-depth business blogging videos that are not only for beginners. Like a video for Q4, or a video about hiring, etc
I love your content and your style! One question, how long should a post be? like how many words for a short post and for a in-depth post? Love from Spain!
I like that you actually had an outline you were following instead of just rambling and going off on tangents. Also appreciate that you showed there's stages to building this type of business instead of advertising overnight success.
People in these comments are so demanding as if they’re entitled to your direct help!! Thank you for sharing your insight on the strategies you’ve implemented 🙌🏽 I appreciate your transparency and wisdom!!
I appreciate your commitment to transparency. It's refreshing to see that you're not promoting an unrealistic view and instead, you acknowledge the effort and time involved. After extensive research, I've found your content to be valuable, and I've just made a purchase of your course. Thank you!
I’m starting my blog today!!! You’ve taught me so much in a short time and I’m so excited!! Thank you for helping me start my journey. I’m excited to see where it goes ❤
I like your focus and I like the fact that you take one thing and learn all about it. I'm going to steal that one, but congratulations on being so young and doing such great things. I am definitely going to check out some of your courses soon. Thank you
First time I've seen your videos and I'm so happy I found your channel. I'm 3 months into my blogging journey and have made some affiliate sales already which was shocking to me. I took an affiliate blogging course (we share the same mindset about taking courses). I'll definitely check out your blogging course over the next week or so. Congrats on your continued success and looking forward to learning more from you!
Awesome video, Sophia! Your advice hit home. I've been juggling multiple tasks daily, causing major frustration. Inspired by your experience, I'll now tackle one thing per week - like SEO first, then Pinterest. Your year-long focus before diversifying is eye-opening. Time to adjust my plan and see where that takes my business!
what a scam, do you think any person w common sense believes you make 120k a month blogging and takes 30min explaining to do it on youtube.... ridiculous. this how I make 50k 80k 200k a month videos are the most irritating and I will report the video as fake content
My trouble has been picking a niche and sticking with it. I have a few different passions or things I want to get into that I am not sure would actually make a good blog. I know it’s not all about the money at the beginning but I know there are things that are easier to break into or things that people respond better to vs something that maybe hasn’t been done before. Or if it isn’t a saturated market maybe it will take off because someone else is curious too? I just keep flip flopping and never know how to commit and make the leap.
General blogs work too instead of writing a blog around different topics each day u can use a month to focus on art, second month lifestyle etc. It would still work u don't have to niche down. I tried to niche down but after a while I got bored staying in 1 place and now I have multiple blogs revolving multiple niches that I can't even manage when I could have just had everything in one place.
Such a good video!! I also started blogging in my sophomore year of college, buuuutttt I tried to do everything at once and gave up out of frustration and lack of instant success. I think if I had seen someone break things down year by year (rather than foolishly assuming I would be successful after 3 months) then I might have stuck with it!
Naw...NameCheap is amazing....BlueHost is good but, alot of people who blog recommend them because they're affiliate... They're a good company just affiliated... a lot of successful/prosperous bloggers use NameCheap. #My2Cents
This is the EXACT content and transparency I've been looking for when it comes to a successful blogger sharing the ACTUAL blueprint they followed that brought them success. I appreciate you breaking this down in terms of what you did in phases. Super helpful.
thank you so much sofia! This was great. Really helps to have focus. I'm just starting and trying to figure out how to juggle everything but don't even know if this is a serious endeavor. I'm at peace with the process now
I don't think I have ever watched a video from start to finish. I absolutely was captivated by every word! I am going to go check out all of your info! Thank you!!!! Jewels
First comment! I've watched the previous videos, and it's just so cool seeing how things have grown. Praying for the same level of success you've had over these years, Sophia!
You kept the video so informative and engaging that I didn't know 30 mins past. Thanks Sophia and I am glad I found you earlier in my blogging journey. So motivational
OK Sophia. I've been watching your videos as I'm a brand new blogger with one blog posted. I tried to do a good job but didn't worry too much since you said no one would see it. There were 22 views! I can account for 4 or 5 views but I have no idea how anyone else found it. It's kind of cool but I was hoping to remain unnoticed until I knew a bit more about what I'm doing. But I'm still having fun and learning from you.❤
Sophia and her teammates this information is priceless. Now that I know you all have an easy payment plan for your courses I’ll be able to get started! Thank you
I just wanna say thank you! I sat with my journal today and mapped out things I really like doing on social media. Pinterest is something I truly love! So thank you for sparking a big idea coming to fruition. I’ve subscribed and I’m so thankful your the info! Thank you honey ❤
This is super informative thank you for taking the time to share in detail. I have been toying with the idea of starting a blog, this is really helpful.
You've been popping up in my feed for YEARS and I should have subscribed earlier! Have now subscribed :) And im going to give this a go! Ive wanted to run a Blog for ages but ive been really focused on RUclips. BUT.. no time better to start than now. Thankyou so much for the amazing info!
Awesome story. Your brain may be mush by the end of this, but the content is so perfect for inspiring viewers, even an old dude like me. Congratulations and much continued success. Thanks for sharing your journey in this informative video.
I think there needs to be some discussion about the impact of AI on blogging. Blogging as a workable strategy for passive income may already be on the way out.
@@lisacousins6110 I already had blogs. I redid them and added new blogs. I havent gotten any earmings yet, but that's because I didnt set anything up. my goal was to get traffic. I'm going to set up the ads part very soon though. I'm still not getting a ton of traffic but it's more than i was getting before. Put it like this. If I had added the ads to my website. I probably wouldve made what I paid for the course back by now. I did this over a year ago lol
Do you think if you started a new vlog today, from scratch, all of the things you did 5 years ago would still apply? Im wondering if your audience is loyal, locked in, so I could see how you would still get views/visits and stay at the “top” of google. Plus, with all of the years you’ve been online and the amount of traffic you’ve gotten over time, you’d have a much better page rank, which means your blog can be in “cruise control”. And someone starting today would be at the bottom of the “pile”, thus growing really slowly or not at all…
I’m new to your channel great info.. I honestly didn’t know about hosted websights…the only thing is?? there’s nothing about the niche and the competitiveness of your chosen niche, DR rating, links, how AI is used or it’s influence, topical clusters and EEAT, how many blog posts do I need 10-20-50-100 or more to gain authority within a niche ?? Sorry I’m new so many questions -thank you for this amazing content !!
Can an old dude do this? I can actually type 85 WPM -- using all my fingers (thanks to my 8th grade teacher), lol Your humbleness is adorable because it exudes sincerity and transparency, something everyone is attracted to. Great video, you've inspired me!! God bless you, Sophia.
Thanks for saying that it was terrifying. I see so much confidence in you that it crossed my mind that I need to be on that level and as a starter I'm scared! 😬
Hello, thank you !!! this was an awesome and very informative video. Much appreciated ! Thank You for talking about Pinterest. I already started my Pinterest account. Wishing you much more success! Definitely will have to look at your courses.
Absolutely love the content you share. It has been quite helpful in my blogging journey. You rock! Sophia, you are such an inspiration. Thank you for all that you do. Also, you blogging course provided me with so much knowledge. It was well worth the investment.
I'm launching a clothing brand but I thought it would be smart to start a blog first to build a community and get people interested in what the brand message is. Does your course go over people who have stores on their blog and sell their own products or just affiliate links? Because I'm not sure if having links on the store would bother a customer. Would I only allow ads on the blog pages?
Confused with how the term 'self hosting' is being used. Self hosting is whereby you host a blog on your own webserver and not in the cloud via a webhost unless mistaken.
I don't have time at the moment to watch the whole video, but thank you for posting Sophia! My only question is can I write about anything I want to and have a successful blog or would I need to follow your recommendations on what to write about to make it to say $50,000 per month?
I'm thanking 2014 old me for going with Wordpress self hosted!! Honestly back then we had less options but I'm soooooo glad I did!!!! Okay continuing watching the video .. will come back with more comments hahha
100000% about the theme, I just changed mine actually, I guess thats why RUclips showed your video, after being talking so much how I want to spend more time on my blog this winter, RUclips heard me hahaha
But you do a video about the Google console? I have written 40 blogs and the Google console is saying crawled but not indexed. It's been about 2 months.
Question is perfecting blogging the blogging course…like will it teach me how to start a blog from scratch and get page views using Pinterest and is the affiliate commission also included I am a Amazon affiliate but don’t know how to make money with it ?
The courses seem not to be available :( , I get message ''this product is not available. Contact the school owner for more information". Is there any workaround or solution ? thank you !
Hi Sophia, this might be a really dumb question but will your perfecting blogging and Pinterest courses work for food bloggers specifically? Haha I think I already know this answer but just wanted to double check before purchasing! Thank you!
Thanks alot - I am myself a professional and want to start my side hustle and ultimately make it my main hustle. You helped alot in strategising. Hope one day I am also able to talk like you on a YT video. Lots of love
Hey there I am wondering if an image based blog will be profitable a blog that doesn’t have long text blogs i mean would it get accepted to google Adsense??? I would appreciate your help

Would you mind sharing the course you took? Also what great timing to find her! Good luck to you and everyone else
What course did you take? What’s your website?
we are looking for affiliates
Awesome video, Sophia! Your advice hit home. I've been juggling multiple tasks daily, causing major frustration.

So whats an example of an ad agency?
What about wix?
Hello, how are you? Please what do you think of Webador? Is it self-hosted or not? Thank you
Great info that can apply to so many areas
Ahhh what if I already have a Squarespace domain that expires this July? Should I still move to word press and just cancel the square space one?
Great content, thank you!
What does “get into an ad agency” mean?

Hi! Tjaml
You for your video. I already have a kajabi blog does this mean I have to stop using this and start over?
The courses seem not to be available :( , I get message ''this product is not available. Contact the school owner for more information". Is there any workaround or solution ? thank you !
May I ask how many page views you have to have before you can apply to affiliate links?
by self hosted do you mean a dedicated host instead of a shared host?

What camera and lens are you using?
I bought that same lamp for my cousin!
How do we sign-up for your Blog class?

Yea that lighting is super annoying. however, the advice is good.
Great video❤Does the $120,000/monthly include your course sells?
How long does it take to actually start seeing results? I have been blogging for 6 months and haven’t seen any sales.
You have to pick something really popular. She's blogs on how to make money blogging which is pretty popular.
Would system io be a self host? I guess I can just Google that. lol but I'd like to know from bloggers.
