One of the best ways to show yourself that it’s possible to build a financially successful blog is to use the success of others as proof. This week on the Make Money Blogging podcast, I give you this proof!
In this episode, I share my story with a brief outline of what I did before I started building my business and then how I went about it including the mistakes and strategies I used along the way.
Learn how sheer determination for a better life was the greatest factor in my early success as well as the mistakes I made early on and the progress I made once I reset how I was prioritising work on my blog. I also talk through what I’m doing now and give an insider look into how I’m running my business.

- What happened in 2013 when I decided I would become a digital nomad and build an online business
- The first steps I took and the big mistakes I made in the first 9 months which lead to me wanting to quit travel blogging

- How I basically took a year off with pregnancy and a newborn but profits kept growing
- Why I started focusing on Digital Nomad Wannabe and what I did to drive this site forward
- Why I sold my travel blog and other sites and the new sites I have started since
- More information about my “conveyor belt” of sites

- My major takeaways from the last 7 years of building an online business
It’s interesting timing for me to record this episode as I go through another life change – moving back to Tasmania after 20 years in Melbourne as that city goes into a hard lockdown. I taped this episode in hotel quarantine in Devonport just to add some extra flavour!
