Everything you need to know about monetizing your website

Gather round folks, today we are going to talk about a subject that is a lil’ taboo but oh so popular : MONEY!

Money talk brings out some pretty strong emotions in people, whether it’s good, bad or ugly. Some people get off talking about money and use it as motivation and fuel to reach new levels in their businesses. However, there are loads of people who shy away from the subject because they consider it a private subject, something that isn’t discussed in polite company.

If you’ve been reading my site for a while, it should come as no surprise that I LOVE talking about money and business, and genuinely enjoy coming up with creative ways to get everything my little heart desires. In the past I've shared my thoughts about blogging for profit, earning six-figures as a freelance web designer/developer, and how to budget with irregular freelance income.

A look at my analytics tab tells me that this type of blog content is super popular, which means that clearly my readers are interested in the subject too :)

As such, today we are going to take a look at how and why you should monetize your website

There’s money to be made in websites and believe me, you don’t want to leave any cash money on the table because you were afraid to go big and put yourself/your site out there. With a bit of creativity, I truly believe that any website can be monetized and you can start earning money from it in no time at all!

Let’s take a look.

I am thrilled to share that my second digital product, the Income Tracker Spreadsheets, is now live and available for purchase exclusively on my website!

Here's how I increased my website traffic by nearly 30% in 4 months

Over the past few months, I’ve made a conscious effort to increase traffic to my website. My hard work as paid off and I’m super excited to share how that worked out with you today!

Let me start off by saying that business growth has always been my top priority and higher website traffic is just a channel for bringing in business.

Although my website didn’t experience any “hockey stick” style growth, it DID increase by nearly 30% in less than four months. Page views to my website were UP in April, an increase of 9.5% mo/mo from the month before. That’s something to be proud of!

In this post, I’m going to explain why I care so much about increasing my website traffic and also show you what I did to get these kind of results. I hope to show you that with the right strategies, anyone can increase traffic to their websites and get serious results - without selling their first born child in the process.  

Let’s take a look.
