You know what every blogger has in common?
We all start at zero. Zero pageviews. Zero followers. Zero errrrthang.
But staying at or near “zero” for weeks, months, or even years can be one of the worst feelings, especially when we feel like “we’re doing everything right.” And especially when we yearn to create an engaged community or a full-time blog biz.
I’ve been asking you all what you need help with most, and I keep hearing things like this:
- I want to grow my pageviews. I see so many bloggers growing their networks and I *feel* like I’m doing everything right, but I still struggle to increase my traffic.
- Driving people to my blog and getting them to leave comments. I feel that I’m giving away valuable information but not seeing results or engagement
- Driving traffic to my site and finding my audience – I have a great focus and the numbers are improving but aren’t where I would like them to be.
- I feel like my content is just as good as the “big” bloggers, but I can’t get my content noticed and circulated.
- I want to grow my blog’s audience, but all the advice out there seems super abstract and vague. Sometimes I just want someone to tell me what I have to do.
Any of those statements sound familiar? They are actual, copy-and-pasted comments from a recent survey I did. And there are pleeeenty more just like them. Basically, if you’re a blogger looking to grow your audience and traffic, then sister, you aren’t alone.
In order to help, I created a 6-day course called The Blog Audience Blueprint, which includes my step-by-step formula for growing your audience and traffic. Oh, and did I mention it’s free?
This ain’t your mama’s e-course. (I’m sure your mama is lovely, by the way). It includes videos, worksheets, and plenty of written text and advice to get you learning and, more importantly, doing.
I’m crazy excited about the release of The Blog Audience Blueprint and I know it is going to be a game changer for anyone who has been working away tirelessly, trying to grow their audience, increase engagement, and create an incredible online platform.

I always feel a little inadequate when I comment on your blog because I am so in awe of not only how generous you are with your knowledge but also because you have such an amazing attitude towards blogging, generosity and life in general.
I have shared your 6 Day Course details on one of my FB pages, and will promote to as many peeps as I can manage, as I believe that SO many people (esp women) will garner incredible strength from the association with you.
Thank you (AGAIN) for being such a wonderful person.

I know the post is about your awesome course, but let me just quickly mention how your photo is epic!!! The perfect book cover photo. =D
Wow thank you so much! The professional photos were taken last month!
I’ve been blogging for a little over a year now, but I’ve found this course to be super refreshing so far! There is so much to the blogging world that it’s easy to get lost in some of the details. Melyssa, thank you for taking me back through the important things and for shifting my attention to those details that can help me make my blog more successful. Your material is fantastic and I can’t wait to finish this course and implement all of the things you’ve been talking about. I’ve been on the fence about LeadPages for a little while now, but I think I’m ready to take the plunge!

Thanks for allowing me to share on IG. I have enjoyed the course immensely, even though I do not have self-hosted blog, I was able to learn a lot. And I hope to use as much as I can now. I loved the lessons on engaging your community, and writing longer posts. That was very interesting, and easy to apply-some days 😉 Learning takes time, but at least you make it fun!
Wow, Just wow! As a brand-spanking new blogger, your site has everything I could have ever asked for. Seriously, a light has shown down from heaven and angels are singing. Can’t wait to start this course!
