When I first starting blogging a year ago, I had absolutely no idea what in the world I was doing. To be honest, I thought I would just write some posts, hit the publish button and call it a day. But there is so much more to blogging than I ever could have imagined.
Words like SEO, social media marketing, child themes, and hosting were phrases that actually terrified me just a little. I had no idea there was so much to blogging. Especially if I wanted to eventually turn this little blog of mine into a business!
And then, one glorious day I came across Abby Lawson’s ebook Building a Framework. Abby is the girl behind the blog Just a Girl and Her Blog. She and her husband, Donnie, have built it from a hobby blog into a full time 6 figure income business in less than 4 years. They really know what they are doing when it comes to the blogging world.
