If you haven’t already done that, then head over to my step-by-step tutorial on starting a blog and pick back up here once you’re ready to grow a blog. If you’ve already gotten your blog off the ground and are ready to start implementing proven strategies to grow your audience this year, then let’s dive right in.

One of the most common questions I get from readers who’ve just hit publish on their first blog posts is… ok, so now where is everyone? As much as I’d like to tell you that building a successful blog is as simple as writing a great blog post or two, kicking back and watching a flood of readers come flying in, the truth is that growing a blog is a bit more nuanced than that—it’ll take time, repetition and the willingness to experiment. Quickly before we move into breaking down all of my best ways to grow a blog, let’s define what I mean when I use the term growing a blog.
Getting more readers for your writing is all well and good, but I want you to have more than just a cool blog that people check out once and go away forever. I want you to have a blog that actively contributes to your financial independence and freedom. And that’s why this guide to growing a blog touches on each core stage of the blogging journey. The strategies I’m sharing with you today are the culmination of my 8+ years of trial and error growing my blog to 500,000+ monthly readers and often more than $50,000/mo in side income. These are proven tactics that I still put into practice myself—and cost little more than your time, hard work and a touch of creativity.
