Pinterest Can Help Build Your Blog

Pinterest is one of my favorite social media platforms.  I have found tons of great information that has helped me in my blogging career.  I wanted to share a few of my favorite boards with you.  Hopefully you will see the great information you can acquire and they will help you too.

Let’s take a look at these boards

My first one is the Board  Blogging and Social Media by Sunshine and Sippy Cups.   The board has a couple of good pins that refer to information about Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, and using Social Media to drive traffic to your site. The pins that caught my eye on her board are The Blog Guidebook and How To Make Money Blogging

Then there is Gwen’s Nest that has a great board called Webmaster Stuff.  She has pinned useful pins named How to Add Links Back To Your Blog Post, Boost Your Blog Traffic, 10 Secret Ways To Grow Your Blog and many more.

Next there is A Hen’s Nest whose board that I found and enjoyed was Blogging Tips.  This board has information relating to Blog Post, Monetizing, and Article Writing.   A few pins I enjoyed were How To Monetize in 2012 and Dynamic Pitch Letter

Lastly we have Norma Doiron who has a board called Blog Posts that has information about Building Your Blog and one not always touched on is mindset for building your online business.  The boards I checked out here were On Page SEO, Blog Posts, and Winners Find A Way To Win.

I love Pinterest because it is a visual social media.  You can share and organize all the products, books, and resources you love.  It is a way to provide information for others; sharing with your family or especially those in your niche if you are working and building your online business.  I believe you can find boards and pins on almost any subject.

Now get out there and go pinning.  What are some of your favorite Boards and Pins?

Make Your Mom Blogging Go Pop With A Podcast

I’m doing a live webinar event about Podcasting next week with David Perdew of Niche Affiliate Marketing System, that’s the offline event I traveled to in February and plan to go back for in August. It’s pretty exciting to be invited to speak to the group and I have my pal Nicole Dean to thank for that.

What is a Podcast?

Simply put, when you serve a media file through your RSS feed (by linking to it) you are podcasting.  A podcast can be audio or video and can take on a variety of formats.

A podcast is easy to start – you already have a blog so the platform is ready.  Deciding what to podcast is probably the most challenging step.

I have always believed that Moms make great podcasters.  We’re natural relationship builders and love a good chat. Give us a topic we care about and we’ll take off with it.  I’ve helped a lot of moms start podcasts over the year – some who stuck with it and have built up a faithful audience.

Take my pal Tara Crooks of Army Wife Network.  She launched her podcast within a year after I started my own and today it’s the foundation of an incredible business.  It started with her personal interest and status as an army wife and grew into something pretty remarkable.

Do you have a passion that you’d like to share in a more intimate way? Audio is a powerful connector and video even more so. Your readers WANT it – that’s reason enough to give it some consideration, don’t you think?

Whether you’ve given Podcasting a thought before – DO come to the webinar and let me work my powers of persuasion on you
