Using Google Analytics for your blog – Audience Overview

Using Google Analytics for your blog

One of the key tools you should have set-up on your blog from day one is Google Analytics. Setting up Analytics is pretty simple, but understanding how to use it and all of the data it provides isn't.  I often receive questions like:  How do I use Google Analytics? and I have analytics set-up, but have no idea what I'm looking at.  Can you help me understand Google Analytics?. With those questions in mind, I thought I would put together a series that will overview what Google Analytics is, Continue Reading

Is blogging easy? Absolutely not

blogging

If you've been reading any of my more recent articles, you'll know I've been hanging out on Google+ frequently these days.  In a Google+ community I'm a member of, a comment was made by a community member that is a new blogger.  The comment contained the following observation: Blogging isn't as easy as it looks. She was more right than she knew.  In fact, blogging can actually be really hard sometimes. Many people make the mistake of reading some article on ShoeMoney or JohnChow.com Continue Reading

How to kill your blog’s brand by over promoting

How to kill your blog's brand by over promoting

One of the most frustrating things I'm seeing is new (and unfortunately experienced) bloggers deluding their brand name by over promoting their own content.  This has been an issue for a while.  Starting with blog comments, and now made even worse through use of social media. I published an article recently pleading for moderators of Google+ Communities to crack down on bloggers self promoting by pasting links to their latest articles and blogs within the communities.  Due to that article and Continue Reading

The power of now

The power of NOW and your blog - Stop thinking, stop hesitating, stop the excuses and start blogging.

The Future is Now.   This was the phrase on a small sign my Dad made for me when I was in college.  That simple phrase became one of my driving mantras in life, starting with college, but also in my marriage, my professional career and in my blogs.  The phrase is a constant reminder to me that the choices I make right now determine my future.  The phrase serves as a reminder to not put anything off, but instead do them right now. The future often seems so far off, when in reality the future Continue Reading

Google Communities – The Good and the Ugly

In early December I received an email from Google announcing that Google Communities was live and inviting me to check it out.  To be honest, I hadn't been on Google+ much since it originally went live.  When I was on, it was only to share links to recent articles I had written.  I wasn't engaged or active at all. The concept of Google Communities intrigued me though and given my new recent focus on upping my "social media game", I decided to check it out. Google Communities Google Continue Reading

2012 Year in Review

Has it really been a year?  I hesitated writing this article because almost every blogger puts together a "year in review" post.  After some severe waffling, I decided to write one.  Why?   Given my niche is teaching others how to blog and how to earn an income online, I thought it would be beneficial for you to see the progress and growth here on Side Income Blogging this past year.  Interested in how much traffic growth I had?  Interested in how much money I earned blogging?  Read on... 2012 Continue Reading
