Blogger to Author

I think this episode is going to be of particular interest to those of you who are recipe creators, whether you’re a food blogger or you just share occasional recipes on your blog or social media. Many of you have probably thought about creating a cookbook. Some of you may even have a digital cookbook that you sell on your website as a PDF. Whether you’ve actually put together or you’re simply dreaming of doing it someday, I think you’re going to enjoy this episode.

In Episode 33 of the Blogger to Author Podcast, I’m interviewing Brittany Suell, author of the cookbook Simply Sugar Free. Brittany has been a health and fitness blogger for several years, and she turned her passion for sharing recipes made without refined sugar into a cookbook. That cookbook has helped her become known as an expert in sugar-free living, helping her land media attention while at the same time growing her business.

If you're running a blog or business online, you know how important search engine optimization is. But, many authors tend to forget about the importance of SEO because they're focusing on finding new readers on social media or setting up book signings. Smart authors realize that potential readers are searching for their books on both Amazon and Google, and they implement an SEO strategy to help them sell more books.

In Episode 32 of the Blogger to Author Podcast, I'm excited to feature an interview with SEO and online marketing expert Glenneth Reed. Glenneth is an SEO pro and she shares some great tips to help get your book sales page, blog, and website to show up in search engine results. You're going to love the actionable tips that she gives you so you can go apply them to your website NOW. (I know I did!)

Sometimes you have a message to share with the world, but you're not sure how to get it in front of a wider audience. Marsha Apsley had always had a passion for helping others, and she had pursued that passion as she grew her blog and her private Facebook group. Like many of you, she had always dreamed of becoming an author, but had told herself that she'd work on that dream "someday" because she thought the process would be too difficult. Then, she ran a 40-day challenge that her group members absolutely loved. Their positive feedback gave her the idea to turn the content from that challenge into a book that her fans are so excited to buy. I think you'll be really inspired by Marsha's story!
