My # 1 Blogging Tip to Grow Your Blog Quickly

Today, I'd like to share my # 1 blogging tip for people who want to grow their blog quickly.

This post might not apply to everyone, but it will apply to some of you, especially if you live in the USA. It has worked for me. I make a six figure income blogging and have done more things wrong than I ever did right!

One of the biggest mistakes I made as a blogger is spending my $100 per hour time on $4 per hour tasks. I would do everything myself, for whatever reason. Can you relate?

Hear me out for a moment.

Let's say you have a job that pays you $20 per hour. After taxes, you net $15 per hour.

And, let's suppose that right now you spend 10 hours per week on your blog. That means your blog is costing you $150 per week, by you spending 10 hours working on your blog, and not working on your job.

Ready to put this into action?

Here is the breakdown of how you CURRENTLY spend your time working on your blog:

  • 2 hours editing blog posts
  • 2 hours creating images
  • 2 hours researching for future blog posts
  • 2 hours writing posts
  • 2 hours promoting your content

From this list, you determine that your best use of your time is writing posts and marketing your content. Everything else you want to delegate or outsource.

What if you worked 2 extra hours at your job and used your net pay of $30 to hire a virtual assistant overseas for $4 per hour (I have several who work for me who I pay this amount and they are very happy).

They knock out the images for you. They do your research. They do the editing too. They do six hours of work for you at $4 per hour. Your cost is $24.

You work two extra hours at your job and earned $40 ($30 net). This covered the cost of your virtual assistant and gave you back 4 HOURS of your life to spend with your family.

Your blog grows quicker. You work less. And, you start working smart. It took me years to make my transition to think this way. I used to do everything myself or say I can't afford it. That is the mindset that will keep your blog small.

Maybe you need to get a part-time job so you can do this. If you could get a part-time job working for $12 per hour (or a similar amount) and then outsource a lot of your blog work to viritual assistants overseas, you can get your life back, work less and grow quickly!

I don't know of ONE successful blogger who does everything themselves. Think big, work smart and follow this advice to make your blog grow faster!
