How to Build a Vibrant Community for Your Paid Membership

 Today I delve into the world of Pinterest marketing. I'm Jillian Leslie, the host of The Blogger Genius Podcast and co-founder of MiloTreeCart, and today I'm excited to share the insights from my recent conversation with Kayla Watkins, a Pinterest marketing expert who specializes in helping bloggers amplify their organic traffic and monetize their content.   The Ever-Evolving World of Pinterest   In the digital age, staying ahead of the curve is crucial, and for niche bloggers, the recent Google updates have been a game-changer. As someone who's passionate about helping fellow bloggers diversify their income streams, I've seen many turn to selling digital products as a viable option. In fact, I offer a free 20-minute digital product strategy call to help develop a digital product strategy and share best practices for monetization success.   During my chat with Kayla, we explore the current trends in Pinterest marketing and how to make the most of this visual platform. Kayla's expertise in crafting effective Pinterest strategies to increase pageviews is invaluable, especially for bloggers in the food, fashion, beauty, and lifestyle categories.

Kayla Watkins  MiloTree Pop-Up App  Join My Blogger Genius Email List  Become a Blogger Genius Facebook Group  All Blogger Genius Podcast Episodes  Tailwind  Canva    Subscribe to the Blogger Genius Podcast:    iTunes  YouTube  Spotify    The Art of Pinterest Optimization   Pinterest is more than just a collection of beautiful images; it's a search engine marketing tool that requires a keen understanding of keyword research, content optimization, and pinning strategy. Kayla emphasizes the importance of finding the right keywords so you can create fresh pins to pin to your relevant boards, and updating existing blog content to stay relevant and maximize engagement.   She also shares her approach to content scheduling and distribution, recommending tools like Tailwind to schedule pins and Canva for designing eye-catching Pinterest pins. Kayla's advice on pin design, Pinterest boards, pin titles and descriptions is clear: keep them concise, informative, and keyword-rich to resonate with Pinterest users.   The Long Game: Building Sustainable Traffic from Pinterest   One of the most striking points Kayla makes is the long-term nature of Pinterest traffic. Unlike the instant gratification of platforms like Instagram, Pinterest rewards patience and persistence. It's about trial and error, refining strategies over time, and understanding that significant results may take months to materialize.   Kayla also touched on the future of Pinterest, predicting a continued focus on e-commerce. She encourages businesses to align their strategies with user behavior on the platform and to consider Pinterest ads to amplify viral content and evergreen posts.   Leveraging Pinterest for Long-Term Stability   Pinterest stands out as a social media platform that drives traffic to blogs or websites, offering a level of stability and control that's hard to find elsewhere. Kayla contrasted this with the fleeting nature of success on other social media platforms, highlighting Pinterest's role as a reliable partner in a business's long-term strategy as long as you understand the Pinterest algorithm.   Repurposing Blog Content for Maximum Impact and Pageviews   During our conversation, Kayla shares a personal success story about repurposing her Instagram content on Threads, the new social media platform by Instagram. By translating her most saved Instagram posts to fit the Threads format, she's seen a significant increase in engagement and email subscribers. This strategy has proven to be a game-changer, allowing her to insert her expertise into relevant conversations and grow her community.   Key Takeaways and Next Steps   My biggest takeaway from this enlightening discussion is the importance of a comprehensive Pinterest marketing strategy. It's essential to have a defined blog niche, solve problems for your audience, and incorporate relevant keywords into your content. Remember, Pinterest is a marathon, not a sprint, and it rewards those who are consistent and strategic in their content creation.   If you're looking to diversify your income and drive traffic to your blog, consider leveraging tools like MiloTreeCart to sell digital products and create sales pages with ease. It's an excellent way to start monetizing your content and expanding your revenue streams.   I hope you've found this blog post informative and inspiring.

Madison emphasizes that by niching down, food bloggers can establish themselves as experts and cultivate a dedicated audience. Personal branding goes hand in hand with this, as it's crucial to connect with your audience on a personal level. By showcasing your human side and creating relatable content, you forge a stronger bond with your readers.   Adapting to Industry Changes and Optimizing for E-E-A-T   We delve into the concerns that come with shifts in ad networks, Google algorithms, and the advent of AI technology. Madison's advice? Focus on building personal connections and optimize your website for E-E-A-T (Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness). This not only helps in establishing credibility but also in gaining the trust of your audience.   The Art of Crafting an Engaging About Page   Your "About page" is more than just a biography; it's a strategic tool to convey authority and trustworthiness. Madison highlights the importance of including a personal photo and linking to a well-crafted about page. This balance showcases your expertise while also addressing your audience's needs and interests.   Monetization Strategies: Beyond Traditional Ads   The conversation also covers monetization strategies for food bloggers. We discuss the potential of diversifying income streams through digital products like paid meal plans, newsletters, and ebooks. The goal is to provide specific and valuable content that solves your audience's problems, thereby building a community of loyal supporters.   Essential Tools for Food Bloggers   Madison shares her favorite tools, which include Ahrefs for SEO and keyword research, Airtable for project management, and the Kadence framework for website customization. I also chimed in with the mention of ChatGPT and Canva as indispensable tools for bloggers.   Building a Community and Offering Value   Our discussion highlightsthe shift from relying solely on ad revenue to creating valuable digital products and nurturing a strong community. The key is to connect with your audience, address their problems, and build trust through personalized and niche-specific content.   Remember, food blogging is now more than just recipes—it's about the stories, the expertise, and the connections we make.

Essential Traffic Strategies for Food Bloggers

 Hello, fellow niche bloggers and digital marketing enthusiasts! Today I'm excited to share with you some invaluable insights from my latest Blogger Genius Podcast episode.   We're diving deep into the recent Google updates and their impact on popular niche bloggers, like lifestyle bloggers, beauty bloggers, fitness bloggers, weight loss bloggers, interior design bloggers, personal finance blogs, and more.   Think of this as your survival guide to the new Google updates and an exploration into the latest trends in the world of digital marketing.   Show Notes:    MiloTreeCart  Book a FREE 20-minute strategy call with me  MiloTreeCart Affiliate Program  Personality Quiz: What Digital Product Should I Create?  MiloTree Pop-Up App  Join My Blogger Genius Email List  Steve Wiideman  Become a Blogger Genius Facebook Group  All Blogger Genius Podcast Episodes    Subscribe to the Blogger Genius Podcast:    iTunes  YouTube  Spotify    Adapting to Google Algorithm Updates   As many of you know, Google's algorithm updates can significantly affect our traffic and income, especially for those of us who rely on ads and affiliate marketing to monetize our niche blogs. In fact, even popular niches, like food blogging, have taken big hits and lost tons of traffic. But bottom line, there's a silver lining!    I've been working with bloggers to pivot towards selling digital products, like digital downloads, workshops, memberships, online courses, coaching, etc., offering free 20-minute strategy calls to brainstorm and navigate this new income avenue. It's all about adapting and diversifying our monetization methods and traffic sources.   SEO Expertise with SEO, Steve Weidman   To give us a deeper understanding, I brought in SEO guru  Steve Wiideman. Steve's expertise shed light on the necessity for bloggers to stay agile with Google's changing search algorithms and user behaviors. He stressed the importance of unique and helpful content, even in the age of AI-generated material.   Beyond Traditional Web Search   Steve urges us to look beyond the confines of traditional web search. Platforms like Google Discover, TikTok, and short-form media content are becoming increasingly important. It's about broadening our digital marketing horizons and embracing the platforms where our audiences spend their time.   The Art of Keyword Research   We also discuss the evolving role of keyword research in driving traffic and building brand awareness. Understanding user intent is crucial for creating content that truly resonates and provides value. For those hit by a drop in Google traffic, Steve recommended analyzing top-performing pages, studying competitors, and optimizing content for a variety of platforms and search engines. For new bloggers and experienced bloggers, it's no longer all about Google.   Personalization and Marketing Channels   The commoditization of content means we need to get personal. So even if you're in one of the most profitable blogging niches, like home improvement, personal development, fashion, mental health,  real estate, or travel etc. this is no longer enough to make a lot of money. It's a good idea to start using "I" and "me," and sharing your personal experiences to make our content more relatable. It will show your expertise and how well you know your specific niche. Steve also highlighted the need to stay on top of industry trends and utilize different marketing channels to remain competitive.   Maximizing Marketing Vehicles   In the latter part of our conversation, Steve emphasizes setting goals for increasing the utilization of various marketing vehicles. He suggests seeking expertise in platforms like LinkedIn and using AI to boost visibility and authority.   The Rise of Generative AI   Generative AI is revolutionizing how we interact and communicate. It's moving from providing solutions to taking actions, such as scheduling and content creation. This evolution opens up exciting opportunities for businesses in customer service, marketing data analysis, and content generation.   Strategic Content Marketing for Niche Bloggers   Steve encourages a strategic approach to content marketing. This includes reviving underperforming content through SEO reviews, UX assessments, and leveraging brand expertise. He also shared tips on using platforms like Reddit, Quora, and Medium effectively, focusing on providing value rather than self-promotion.   A Granular Strategy for Success   Finally, Steve advocates for a granular strategy. Start with one piece of content, measure the impact of each change, and continuously evolve. It's about being strategic, leveraging AI, and implementing a measured approach to content marketing and platform utilization.   Embracing Creativity and Change   To sum up, our digital marketing landscape is ever-evolving, and success lies in our ability to be creative, adapt to changes, and diversify our strategies. I hope these insights from the Blogger Genius podcast inspire you to explore new avenues like selling your own digital products and thrive in the digital space.   Stay tuned for more episodes, and remember, I'm here to help you strategize your digital product journey. Let's embrace the change together!

Master Google Updates: Essential Survival Guide for Niche Bloggers!

 Today I want to talk about how to look up from your own blog with fresh eyes to see the changing landscape and new trends. And then I want to share the best ways to pivot I recommend you start implementing now to grow your blog income.   The Changing World of Blogging   Is Blogging Dead?   The first question I get asked is “Is blogging dead?” And I’m going to say no, it’s not dead but the blogging world is changing.   Drop in Google Traffic   As you know I talk to professional bloggers all the time, in all different niches, and recently I talked to four who all lost between 70-90% of their site traffic during these March Google updates.    Now we all know that when Google pushes out updates we shouldn’t change anything for about a month to see where the dust settles, but I don’t think any of these bloggers have seen such big swings before. So to be honest they were all a bit shell-shocked.    Show Notes:    MiloTreeCart  Book a FREE 20-minute strategy call with me  MiloTreeCart Affiliate Program  Catch My Party  Anca from The Butter Table  MiloTree Pop-Up App  Join My Blogger Genius Email List  Become a Blogger Genius Facebook GroupAll Blogger Genius Podcast Episodes    Subscribe to the Blogger Genius Podcast:    iTunes  YouTube  Spotify    Google's Influence and SEO   Shifts in Search Results   So the first trend I expect to see is a decrease in overall traffic from Google for publishers or bloggers who are creating valuable content using best practices. Will we all be losing 70-90% of our traffic, my gut says no. In my experience, when Google makes changes they typically don’t reverse course.   For example, when we launched Catch My Party, a lot of our users were Etsy sellers so we used their API and imported their products to our site, each product got a separate page. We did this for ease. We weren’t monetizing it. Google wasn’t seeing these pages as duplicate content so if people were searching for these products they could end up on our site. We were making really good affiliate income, the Etsy sellers were happy because of all the exposure they were getting, it was growing our traffic, and then one day it all went away. Google de-indexed those pages and that traffic and income were gone.   My point is that Google changes usually move in one direction. And what is Google facing right now? Existential threats. Remember, all they care about is people coming to Google in need information and end up finding it and having a good experience.   Recently though, the overall feel is the search experience has been deteriorating so Google has been making changes. Showing more results from Reddit and Quora. This is because they want answers from “real people.” Google has found that sites have been gaming SEO to make money with affiliate marketing, for example, and Google has been cracking down.    The Introduction of AI in Search   Plus how is google going to implement AI in search. They are calling this the Google Search Generative Experience or SGE. Google is working on what this is going to look like, but one thing Google has said is their SGE will quickly provide users with the answers they need and not necessarily direct users to other sites or content.    If their AI, Gemini, can give you better results on their GSE page than sending you off to a site they don’t control, you better believe they will do that. In fact, I think it’s already happening in the travel space.   Plus for successful bloggers monetizing with display ads, as 3rd party cookies get phased out,  advertisers not being able to track visitors, there will probably be downward pressure on ad revenue.   Adapting to New Realities   I was on a call with a food blogger this past week and I started painting this new picture for her and she couldn’t believe what I was saying. She’s an old school blogger. She doesn’t really use AI in her and feels like her readers could definitely tell the difference.    When I told her it’s all about her prompts and she could prompt her AI to sound like her, she got really upset. I told her she should start getting serious about learning how to use ChatGPT, she was shocked.   When I told her that some people will be using AI for recipes and not going to blogs she didn’t believe me. She said, “Who’s going to get their recipe from a machine?” That's not high-quality content. Then over the next two days I heard of two people who get their recipes from ChatGPT and think it’s so easy.   Do I believe everyone will be getting their recipes from AI, no. But it will become more common.   I don’t mean to be painting a bleak picture for bloggers and they should not abandon creating great blog content. I just mean to point out that change is a foot and the more willing you are to embrace it, the more success you’ll have.   What this really means is opening the aperture of how we see our business, our target audience, and our opportunities to serve them.   I wouldn’t be surprised if the goal of cranking out blog posts, and getting them to rank in Google so you can make a full-time income from ad networks MediaVine or Raptive will shrink in the long run.    So I have 3 recommendations:   1. Diversify Your Traffic Sources   Start investing in Pinterest again if you had given up on it in the past. It might take a couple of months to see ROI on it, but Pinterest static pins still drive traffic. I’ve heard of people going back to Facebook and using it to drive page views. I think this is especially true and platforms like Facebook are deprioritizing news. If you can build engagement with what you post on Facebook, you can drive traffic. I’ve even heard that people are starting to see traffic coming from other search engines like Bing. Bing is growing in search.   So Google should not be your only play.   And another place to invest in is growing your email list. Besides your blog, your email list is one of your most valuable assets. Because you own your email list. And all these people have said yes, to you showing up in their inbox. Think of that as them inviting you into their living room, so use it wisely. Give them value and let them get to know you.   Focus in Email Marketing   And remember, email marketing is the best and easiest way to sell.   This also includes showing up on social media. Even if these platforms don’t drive a lot of traffic, right now, it’s about getting know. For you.   Which leads to my next recommendation.    2.) Start Building Relationships With Your Audience   Don’t think of them as nameless, faceless, “traffic.” These are real people. Like you are a real person. And this is where your competitive advantage moving forward comes into play.   With AI, even great content is becoming a commodity. I can get a recipe or DIY from AI now. But YOU are not a commodity. You are a problem solver.    Start Focusing on Your Brand   I did a solo episode on how you are now not just a content provider. You are an expert, selling your “vibe.”   A few of the bloggers I spoke to this past week, didn’t like this idea because they’re used to hiding behind their blogs. But I’m going to say, this is the new reality. Get used to putting yourself out there, so people can get to know you.   This is why you want to figure out your personal brand based on your expertise and vibe and start sharing it.   And finally, my last recommendation:   3. Sell Solutions to Problems   This is all about finding new income streams.   We’re moving from an information economy (with AI, information is becoming a commodity) to a people-focused economy.   Of course selling digital products is probably the easiest way to get started. If you want to talk to me about how to do it go to milotree.com and book a free 20-minute Zoo call with me. I’ll help you readjust your thinking as a blogger. I feel like this is what I do a lot of.   And yes, starting with an ebook or guide or other types of digital downloads is a great place to start because they’re easy to create and they provide passive income.   But what we see in our data at MiloTreeCart is the people making the most money are selling memberships, coaching, live 1-hour workshops. And notice something about each one of those products. It’s you showing up live with other people.   Sure, if you want to create online courses go for it, but we're seeing mixed success with that. I feel like people are a little coursed out.   Book a Call with Me to Talk About Digital Products   And at MiloTreeCart, we have all the resources and step-by-step guides to launch these products with ease and without burnout. Just talk to me about it.   There are opportunities out there. You just have to look for them. This is your time to connect with other bloggers in your niche, join Facebook groups, watch what bloggers in other niches are doing.    In addition to selling digital products, you could also look into selling physical products like if you're a crafter selling products on Etsy. And another thing you can sell are affiliate products. If you don’t want to start creating your own products and services, find affiliate products you can promote that will make you serious money. I’m not talking Amazon affiliate links.  But I recommend you find affiliate products that pay a lot of money. I'm talking about software products that have generous affiliate programs, so think about the tools you use and maybe you could be promoting them to other bloggers.   In fact, we sell military card, as you may know, for a lifetime deal of $349 and we pay our affiliates $100 per sale.   For example. We sell MiloTreeCart for $349 right now, lifetime deal. And we pay our affiliates $100 a sale.    April MiloTreeCart Affiliate Challenge   And I’m even running a challenge in the month of April awarding an additional $250 bonus and a free hour-long coaching call for people who make 8 sales. You make 8 sales during the month you get over $1,350 in value.   Here's how to join our MiloTreeCart affiliate program.    Look for Other Income Opportunities   And there are other opportunities out there. For example, I had my friend Anca from The Butter Table on the show. She’s the food blogger who, like many new bloggers, didn’t want to grow her blog the traditional way and wait two years to get any traction, so she figured out how to create user generated content for brands, how to pitch to them, and she’s making a killing. She’s thinking outside the box. And btw, she’s teaching people how to do this.   And if you say, I don’t have any marketable skills, I”m going to say, go learn a new skill that you can monetize. And if you know how to do anything with AI, you can sell that as a skill. Maybe you can teach other bloggers how to use AI to write blog posts or emails.   How Blogging Is Changing and What to Do Now   Yes, the world of blogging is changing. What’s worked so far, might not work as well in the future.   Lean into your brand and your vibe. Your blog is not your brand. You are.   Diversify your traffic sources and show up on social media even if it doesn’t drive traffic because you want people to know you and you get to know people. It’s no longer about traffic, it’s about people.   Invest in growing your mailing list. Sending emails is the easy way to create your superfans who trust you and will buy from you.   Diversify your revenue streams and start selling solutions. You don’t need millions of people. You just need a loyal audience who is interested in your blog niche.   Find problems you can solve and charge for the solutions.   It's a good idea to teach yourself new marketable skills that you can monetize.   Find the opportunities (like great affiliate programs like MiloTreeCart) because there will be many new ways people will be making good money on the internet. And this is all good news.   And show up as an empathetic human people can relate to.   If you have any questions, reach out to me. I love hearing from you. If you’re having a rough time, reach out to me. If you want to start selling digital products, definitely reach out to me and we'll get on a free call. Now look, no one knows what the future holds if they say they do, do not trust them.    But I'm actually really bullish about the future of online business because it might not be about our blogs at a certain point.   I'm not sure in the future people are going to be going to static web pages for information. But if you can show up as a real person with real solutions and willing to put in the hard work, you will win. I hope you found this episode helpful.   And just so you know, there are many nights when I'm lying there wide awake thinking about all of this stuff. So maybe I recorded this episode as much for me as I did for you.
