Слайд 2My name is Geraldine. I run a travel blog.


Слайд 3With a surprisingly strong following:


Слайд 4The blog has received a lot of attention
(no one is more

surprised than me)

Слайд 5I’ve been blogging for 5 years and written nearly 1,200 posts.



Слайд 6Good blogging is all about love.


Слайд 7
You can fall in love with anything.


Слайд 8With an activity.


Слайд 9With a place.


Слайд 10With a message.


Слайд 11
With Jeff Goldblum’s abs.


Слайд 12What does it mean to fall in love with a website?



Слайд 13
Does it have to be useful?


Слайд 14
Usefulness doesn’t necessarily equate to love.


Слайд 15
We love lots of things that aren’t useful.


Слайд 16Does it have to be informative?


Слайд 17Being informed is important, but I don’t love everything I’ve learned.


Слайд 18There’s a difference between USING a site and LOVING it.


Слайд 19
Love is different.


Слайд 20
It can’t be replaced.


Слайд 21
It can’t be replaced.
Probably.


Слайд 22It has the potential to last.


Слайд 23
GoFugYourself
is a site I love.


Слайд 24
I’ve been reading it for nearly 10 years.


Слайд 25There are few things in ours lives that last decades.


Слайд 26Average length of time from marriage to separation in Australia is

8.7 years.

Слайд 27
I’m invested in the writers.


Слайд 28There is no replacement.


Слайд 29
You can’t buy that sort of loyalty.


Слайд 30Loving a person is difficult. Loving a blog is easy.


Слайд 31Figure out what you love.
What can you write about everyday?


Слайд 32
If you are passionate about something, you are uniquely qualified to

write about it.

Слайд 33What if you don’t have a choice?
Find a way to

make it work.

Слайд 39Find the intersection:


Слайд 40Easy for me to say, right? My blog is about travel.



Слайд 41
Confession: travel is not my greatest love.


Слайд 42
This is. (Cake’s a close second.)


Слайд 43My earliest posts are just about travel. They suck.


Слайд 44This was the first great post I wrote. It’s about Rand …

and travel.

Слайд 45The only way to find out what works is to experiment.



Слайд 46I tried everything.


Слайд 47Some posts would work. Others didn’t.


Слайд 48There are dozens of potential reasons why.


Слайд 49Was the title compelling?


Слайд 50Did I promote it? Where?
Via Bit.ly


Слайд 51Did I pick the right time to post it?
Via Followerwonk


Слайд 52
Was it the photos?


Слайд 53Did I rank for key search terms?
(Maybe on accident?)


Слайд 54Success is complicated. Not even the “experts” have it all figured

out.

Слайд 55
“OkCupid doesn’t really know what it’s doing. Neither does any other

website. It’s not like people have been building these things for very long, or you can go look up a blueprint or something. Most ideas are bad. Even good ideas could be better.”

-Christian Rudder, Founder of OKCupid

Слайд 56
Give your audience
someone to connect to.


Слайд 57Make an About page.


Слайд 58
Have a point of view.


Слайд 59Not everyone will like you; that’s okay.


Слайд 60If you express an opinion, people will want to share it.

Even if they don’t agree.

Слайд 61Use

photos.

Слайд 62Include pictures of yourself.


Слайд 63These give your audience someone to relate to.


Слайд 64And helps to create an on-going narrative.


Слайд 65Consider including photos of your loved ones.


Слайд 66
When this happened, I cared:


Слайд 67
Subtlety can be powerful.


Слайд 68
Even if your blog is about other people, you can connect

with your audience.

"What happened to your arm?" "I was walking down the stairs and looking at the stars." (Amman, Jordan)


Слайд 70

“I knew you’d stop me one day.”


Слайд 71Let people find you.


Слайд 72Look at the sites that send you traffic via your analytics

tool.

Слайд 73Some referrers send traffic that really engages with you


Слайд 74Tools like SimilarWeb can show you where successful bloggers in your

field are getting traffic.

Слайд 75Respond to people.


Слайд 76Just reaching out a little can mean a lot.


Слайд 78Emilio Estevez follows me on Twitter.
I’m now a fan for life.


You can be someone’s Emilio Estevez.

BAM!


Слайд 79
Be relatable.


Слайд 80
Be imperfect.


Слайд 81Mistakes
=
great stories.


Слайд 82Use a conversational tone.


Слайд 83Share stories about yourself.


Слайд 84
Be transparent.


Слайд 86If you are, you can ask more of your audience.


Слайд 88DON’T tell people how much like them you are.


Слайд 89Don’t ask for too much.


Слайд 90Limit calls to action.
One
Two
Three
Four
Five
Six
Seven
Eight


Слайд 91Be patient


Слайд 92An audience won’t show up overnight
(at least, not a lasting one).


Слайд 93Don’t write for the audience you have. Write for the audience

you will have.

Слайд 94I have addressed my audience directly as “you guys” in more

than 70 blog posts.

6 times in my first year of blogging.


Слайд 95Eventually, they read those posts.


Слайд 96Create evergreen content inspired by what’s happening now.


Слайд 97Be the thing you’ve been waiting for.


Слайд 98You need to do the rest.

Luck can get you part of

the way there.

Слайд 99If you search for something online and don’t find it …
MAKE

IT YOURSELF.

Слайд 100
Now I rank #2 for
“brain surgery recovery.”


Слайд 101Don’t be afraid to be yourself.


Слайд 102There’s a payoff.


Слайд 103If these tips don’t feel right to you, don’t do them.


Слайд 104If something doesn’t work, change it.


Слайд 105You are amazing. There are people out there, waiting to love

you.

Слайд 106“Those who truly love us will never knowingly ask us to

be other than we are.”
