Blogging 101

What You’ll Learn

I started off like you--a blogger with a dream and virtually no idea how to write a blog, much less make it successful. Almost 3 years later, my blog, 6 Months to Live, ranks the highest in Google search results, has more than 30,000 visits, and has expanded into a Kickstarter-backed web show.

This class will be an interactive workshop that will teach you the essentials of:

  • How to find, attract, and keep your ideal audience
  • How to leverage social media channels and other tricks to attract more readers
  • How to generate compelling content that keeps readers engaged and excited to return

Prior to the class, I will ask for your current blog, so I can have a better idea of its content, audience, and potential for growth. Time permitting, we will address as many students as possible with their blog and brand. I look forward to this class and to building your blog's brand with you!

 

 

Beginner Level

Students should have an existing blog or concept for a blog.
