The most important thing you’ll do when registering your domain

January 30, 2016 By Paula Leave a Comment

Yay, so you bought a domain name. Good job! Then they try to sell you all these upgrades that seem like they aren't really essential and just a way of them getting that price higher on you. For most of the upgrades, I agree. Skip them!!! But there is one that you absolutely should not skip, and that's the privacy add on. If you don't set up a proxy for yourself, any one on the internet can know your name, home address and phone number. Not ...

Changing the Way Blogging Is Perceived

January 11, 2016 By Paula Leave a Comment

This weekend I spoke at Type A bootcamp in Las Vegas and attended Affiliate Summit the following days. It's been an amazing experience, but an extremely challenging one as well. And I'm not just talking about the challenge of being an introvert in a room with 4,000 other people (for real). The key difference between Affiliate Summit and the other conferences I've been to is it's not just bloggers. Now on the one hand, that's AMAZING. I've ...

Tax Tips For Bloggers

December 30, 2015 By Paula Leave a Comment

Tax time. It can seem super overwhelming can't it? If you are like me, taxes used to be so simple. I would always pick up the form from my place of employment, hand it off to my husband and he would take care of the rest. With both of us being traditionally employed it really wasn't all that difficult. Then I decided to own create my own business and things just got more complicated. We had a lot of questions starting out and the tax side of it ...

Just One Thing

October 27, 2015 By Paula Leave a Comment

Sometimes it just takes on person, just one thing to be a catalyst for change. Three years ago I got my first ever sponsored post. It was through social spark (now izea) and for a whopping $30. It's a simple thing, but it truly change my life.   (this post has referral links) A simple 30 bucks showed me that I could do this. That my crazy dreams of making a living blogging, might not be all that crazy after all. It showed me I could achieve ...

Blog Post Loading…

October 17, 2015 By Paula Leave a Comment

You know that feeling... that even when you aren't working, you totally are? There is never a time when we don't have a "blog post loading". Sure, you might be at the park with your kids, but then another mom does something irritating and you just KNOW an "open letter to the anonymous mom at the playground" will be featured on your blog tomorrow. Or maybe you are shopping for groceries and discover an epic deal prompting "8 ways to save big ...
