When you’re just starting out in blogging it can be very overwhelming. When I wrote my first post I genuinely had no idea how much of a rollercoaster of a learning curve blogging would be. I thought putting myself out there on my pretty little website was enough. Turns out, tumbleweed..... sad face.
I checked every free and affordable blogging resource, stalked Facebook groups for hours and became a serial newsletter subscriber! Over time, I discovered a few stand-out blogs that really spoke to me, told me things I didn’t already know and provided valuable, practicable information that has helped me to grow my little blog.
These experts know what it takes to make a blog work. From getting noticed to saving time, managing emails to growing your social media profile; they know their stuff. Today I thought I might take some of the hard work out of the process for you and give you the list of the people who ACTUALLY KNOW what they’re talking about.
These guys walk the walk; each of them is personable, accessible and offer step-by-step answers to all your deepest blogging questions. If you do nothing else to grow your business today, sign up their email lists; you won’t be sorry.
Ladies who do more than Lunch
When it comes to digital marketing, Meera certainly knows her stuff. She talks frankly and without jargon, giving her articles and email newsletters only one downfall – so much to implement! Her emails arrive into my inbox and I always save them to read properly, never just a passing glance for Meera! I know that whatever she has to tell me is super valuable and will impact my business in a massive way. I am glad to have found Meera; she is a lighthouse amongst the sea of bloggers who teach us how to blog!
Elise McDowell knows what it’s like to be a successful business person. She has generated success for others throughout her career and finally decided to branch out and make it for herself. If you desire an extraordinary life, Elise is your girl! Her free, five-day course, “How to build a Profitable Sales Funnel” is simple to follow and easy to implement. She can teach you how to reengage a neglected email list and how to make money from affiliate marketing through Pinterest alone.
Joanna knows how to get you started in blogging. She offers solid and simple information on starting a blog in seven days, growing your email list and getting productive! Her blog isn’t overwhelming and is super-easy to navigate. Joanna will teach you about the tools you need to build a strong foundation for your new blog or biz and give you the confidence to transform it into a successful and profitable full-time job.

With her “work brighter” motto, Brittany teaches you how to automate your creative business, freeing up time and brain-juice to keep you at your creative best. She has work-life hacks down pat, and passes them on to her readers in a colourful, lively and (in the most-part) hilarious way.
Let’s Hear it for The Boys
Jon Morrow is one of the few go-to, no-nonsense guys who I rely on for solid information. This post had a big impact on my traffic; the steps took minutes to implement and the return was unfathomable. One of Jon’s freebies, “Headline Hacks”, will up-level your confidence in writing brilliant and click-worthy blog titles.
Danny Iny has lots to get your teeth into; from course building to engagement he knows his audience and what they need. Implementing the guide in this post saw my reader to subscriber conversion rate quadruple in a matter of days – honestly I was blown away!
Ramsay has amazing tips on everything from guest posting to improving audience engagement. His tone is light and sensible, and as with all the others recommended today, he gives you practical steps to get the job done.
In summary, stop wasting your time floating around Pinterest and heading to the pretty pins that tell you just how much money bloggers made this month. If there’s one tip from me, then it’s simply to believe in yourself. Put aside the negativity because, as women, that is statistically proven to be the one thing that leads to our failure. Your own voice, amazing content and a guiding hand from these seven brilliant gurus will see you well on your way to the extraordinary life you know you can have.
