Biggest Reason Your Blog Isn't Growing πŸ₯Ί

Published about 1 year agoΒ β€’Β 2 min read

In 2022, I was interviewed by this popular podcast on how I grew my first blog from 7k visitors to over 100k visitors in less than six months- after failing for a good solid two years to grow my blog.

There were a few key things I did to get traction on my blog:

The things I changed:

1- Updated old content

2- Wrote new content that people were actually searching for ie, low competition, high search volume topics

3- Deleted thin crap content

4- Changed my theme

5- Changed my hosts

Out of all these changes, I believe the single biggest change that moved the needle was...

Changing hosts

Why?

Because it was a blog structural issue

Let's imagine your blog is a rental property you are looking to rent out and earn from

You could:

  • Paint the entire house so it looks fresh and pristine
  • Furnish the house with beautiful interior design
  • Landscape the garden
  • Pay for advertising to convince potential renters to view the house ...

But if the house has structural defects, such as cracked walls and sinking floors, no renter in their right mind will pay you to rent it.

It's the same with your blog

If you spend all your time enticing readers to read your blog, but once they arrive, it takes 20 seconds to load, they will bounce off and never return!

I chose them because, compared to other hosts offering the same service, they are:

  • Affordable
  • Offer FREE speed optimizations for your site
  • Fix small tech issues
  • I get customer support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, within 30 seconds on their dedicated chat.

What if you can't afford a better host?

Then you can try to improve your site speed yourself

I have some bonus modules in Triple Your Traffic, that teach you how to optimise and increase the speed of your site yourself

I recently shared a video on what to do if you can't or don't know how to pick a niche. What if you want to write about multiple niches? What if you don't know which niche is best? What if you pick one and then you get bored? Won't you be stuck ? So many people don't START because they are worried they will make a mistake and pick the wrong niche! This video shares the solution to this problem. The follow-up question I received was : If I run a blog with multiple niches, what happens if I...

I write this with a full-blown cold... think snotty nose, and red, puffy eyes. I just completed a half-marathon over the weekend, and I think my body has finally given up!

What am I focusing on since Google decimated many sites? What is the best strategy to earn money from...
