<h3>A word about image copyrights 
</h3>
In the blogosphere as elsewhere, it is important not to use anyone else's material&mdash;text, images, or other&mdash;without proper permission and giving appropriate credit. Sometimes it can be very hard to tell which images are available for re-use, however! To make this easier, here is a list of free (or extremely inexpensive) online image resources where bloggers often go to find great images to pair with their post content. Each resource gives you guidelines for how to re-use the images you find there just by clicking on the links below.
<ul>
<li>Wikimedia: <a href="http://www.wikimedia.org" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.wikimedia.org</a></li>
<li>Free Digital Photos: <a href="http://www.freedigitalphotos.net" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.freedigitalphotos.net</a></li>
<li>Fotor Images: <a href="http://foter.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://foter.com</a></li>
<li>Flickr: <a href="http://www.flickr.com/creativecommons/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.flickr.com/creativecommons/</a></li>
<li>123rf: <a href="http://www.123rf.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.123rf.com</a></li>

<h3>3 Great ways to use images to attract blog readers 
</h3>
1. Select an existing SEO ("Search Engine Optimized") image for each blog post.
When you type in your topic in a search engine's browser, it will generate a list of links and also a series of images. These images are already associated with your topic through a set of relevant keywords.
Want to see how this works for yourself?
<ul>
<li>Open your browser and type in "can adding images boost blog traffic?" (this is the query I used to research this tip).</li>
<li>Now, notice how a page full of links pops up.</li>
<li>Look up at the top of the page and see a menu button titled "Images."</li>
<li>Click on "Images" and notice all the images that pop up.</li>
<li>Many of these images are available for reuse with proper copyright credit (clicking on each individual image will tell you whether an image may be available for reuse)!</li>
</ul>
2. "Pin" your blog posts on Pinterest.
If you have a Pinterest account (or want to start one), pinning each of your blog posts inside Pinterest in a special Board created for your blog can be a great way to reach out to new readers who will visit your blog.
Here are some tips:
<ul>
<li>Keep your title the same on Pinterest as it is on your blog.</li>
<li>Include one image from your blog post (since Pinterest is image-driven).</li>
<li>Add a link back to your blog post.</li>
<li>Add a short summary or quote from the blog post content.</li>
</ul>
3. Take original photos and add them to your blog posts.
If a photo, image, or graphic is available for re-use and becomes popular, it may start showing up in several places at once. For this reason, if you are able to capture your own original images for your blog posts, you do your content (and your profit-earning potential) a favor!
As a bonus, copyright becomes a cinch because you own your own copyright to your original images. Plus, because it is an image you snapped yourself, no other blogger will be featuring the same exact image. You can use a photo editor (like Instagram) to create extra-fancy images, or just grab images from your smartphone and associate them with your content.
By choosing compelling images appropriate to your content (or even going one better and adding video!) you give each blog post its best shot at generating more readers&#8230;and more <a title="How to Start a Coupone Blog and Make it Profitable in 30 Days" href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/tips/how-to-blog/start-coupon-blog-and-make-it-profitable-in-30-days/" target="_blank">affiliate income</a> for you!

So at times I find it fun to google things like "the benefits of starting your own business" just to see whether the joy and fulfillment I feel is actually, well, normal!
Recently I read a quote from <a href="http://money.usnews.com/money/personal-finance/slideshows/the-best-side-business-ideas-for-busy-people" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">U.S. News &amp; World Report</a> that stated: "increased financial security" and "a deep sense of satisfaction" are the two main payoffs of starting your own business. While I wouldn't say I&#8217;m meeting my goals for the former in full yet, I&#8217;m definitely experiencing the latter in spades.
Since a lot of my work happens online, and I use my phone as a management tool while on the go, I&#8217;ve also found that certain apps and tools are a literal lifeline to help me do everything I want to do in a day. If you&#8217;re a busy entrepreneur (or&mdash;even busier&mdash;Mompreneur!) be sure to give these apps and tools a test run.

Baby Connect is a little pricier than most of the apps we recommend here on KCL, but for a working mom with a lot on her plate, it&#8217;s worth five bucks for the peace of mind alone! Baby Connect also has a free online tool if you don't need to access it on the go. This app lets you track absolutely everything about your little ones. Medications and vaccinations, checkups and play dates, photos and growth charts, sleep and mood, feeding and changing schedules, and even a syncing feature across all your devices&mdash;all are included in one app. You can schedule reminders, set alarms, and even export data via email or .csv. Finally, this app will also help you schedule child care with nannies, babysitters, daycare centers, and more.
<h3>6. Hashtag Mom (Foursquare)</h3>
<a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/mompreneur4.jpg" target="_blank"><img class="size-full wp-image-948806 aligncenter" src="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/mompreneur4.jpg" alt="mompreneur4" width="300" height="410" srcset="https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/mompreneur4.jpg 300w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/mompreneur4-115x157.jpg 115w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/mompreneur4-98x134.jpg 98w" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /></a>

If you&#8217;re a working mom to kids who are starting to spread their solo wings, Hashtag Mom helps you keep tabs on them from anywhere. The Foursquare-based app sends a quick text or makes a call from child to Mom as part of a Foursquare check-in. The app will even prompt kids to check in periodically.

At first, KCL was just a way for two gals&mdash;who love to save&mdash;to have fun together and share their passion. Today, KCL is so much more than just a fun way to save&mdash;it&#8217;s a hugely profitable business!
For Joanie and Heather, both busy moms, blogging was the best way to get their business up and running in the time they had available. In this post, you can learn from Joanie and Heather&#8217;s success and discover what you need to get your own new blog up and running today!
<blockquote>
<h3>Joanie and Heather&#8217;s Blogging Start-up 101</h3>
If you haven't already, first things first&mdash;read through these two blog posts from Joanie and Heather. By the time you&#8217;re finished following the instructions in each, you&#8217;ll be up and running with your own potentially lucrative blog!
<a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/tips/how-to-blog/start-coupon-blog-and-make-it-profitable-in-30-days/" target="_blank">How to Start a Coupon Blog and Make It Profitable in 30 Days</a> by Joanie Demer 
<a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/tips/how-to-blog/set-google-analytics-blog-10-minutes/" target="_blank">How to Set Up Google Analytics on Your Blog in 10 Minutes</a> by Heather Wheeler</blockquote>
Once you have the basic mechanics in place (blog setup, affiliates links, analytics), it&#8217;s time to give your brand new blog a firm foundation to succeed&#8230;and earn.
<h3>1. Articulate your USP (Unique Selling Point)</h3>
Depending on who you ask, your USP might be called your Mission and Vision or your Business Statement. It doesn't matter what you call it. What matters is that you know it and factor it in each time you craft a blog post.
Your USP should answer this one question: "Why will readers choose to visit my blog rather than someone else's?"
If you&#8217;re daunted by the challenge of answering this question (especially so early in your blog's young life) start by answering this question instead, "Why do you visit KCL instead of other couponing blogs?" or "Why is KCL one of your favorite couponing blogs?" Then, take your answer and apply it to your own blog. What can you do to make your new blog attractive to readers the way KCL is attractive to you?
<h3>2. Create at least 4 weeks' worth of posts</h3>
This isn't as challenging as it sounds&mdash;your goal here will be to write one blog post per week so you&#8217;ll be working to create your first four blog posts. Not only will working on this task help you further refine your USP, but you will then free up your available time to work on a few other necessary items your new blog needs right away, because your content will already be written and scheduled for the next four weeks!
<h3>3. Choose a way to capture readers' email addresses </h3>
Many bloggers use an email management system to do this (for instance, Mail Chimp, Constant Contact, Mad Mimi, AWeber, etc.). You want to capture email addresses so you can begin building a relationship with your readers. Once you choose your email management system, you can install their "Opt-In" form on your blog to capture email addresses.
Here are a few fun ways to capture readers' email addresses:
<ul>
<li>Offer a free subscription-based e-newsletter with weekly discounts or giveaways.</li>
<li>Run a poll or contest.</li>
<li>Give out a free excerpt from a book or white paper you're written.</li>
<li>Offer a special free coupon or discount to a product or service (yours or another blogger&#8217;s).</li>
</ul>
<h3>4. Link your blog to your social networks</h3>
If you&#8217;re using WordPress for your blog, you can easily link your social media networks so your blog posts are automatically distributed to your network as soon as they&#8217;re published (in fact, most blogging platforms now offer a way to do this). Alternately, you can use a third-party app such as Hoot Suite, TwitterFeed, or Buffer App to distribute your content to various social media pages and profiles for you.
<h3>5. Set your blog-networking machine in motion</h3>
If you already know (or can meet) influencers in the topic area your blog addresses, reach out to them and initiate a relationship. This can help you "share" readers in a way that will benefit you both (KCL does this in their affiliate relationship with Coupons.com).
There are several ways to begin building rapport with influential bloggers:
<ul>
<li>Offer to write a guest post on another blogger's blog.</li>
<li>Invite another blogger to write a guest post for your blog.</li>
<li>Purchase products from a fellow blogger, then blog about them, link back to the other blogger's blog, and alert that blogger and ask for a follow-up post.</li>
<li>Create a "Best of" or "Top 10" list and name your favorite influential bloggers, then post comments on each of their blogs to alert them.</li>
<li>Read influential blogs and post comments regularly so they begin to recognize you.</li>
</ul>
<h3>6. Watch your Google Analytics closely</h3>
When Joanie and Heather first launched KCL's blog, they didn't even have a site counter installed (a site counter tells you how many "hits" or page views your blog gets each day).
When they finally did install a site counter, Joanie recalls, "When we first added a site counter, we were surprised at the number of views we'd get." Heather remembers thinking, "We're already doing work so why not monetize it? We signed up for an affiliate and started making money."
So <a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/tips/how-to-blog/set-google-analytics-blog-10-minutes/" target="_blank">watch your analytics</a> closely. They will tell you which posts are most popular with readers. You can learn valuable information to help you boost readership in future posts by watching how current and past posts have performed. You can also link back to popular previous posts in future blog posts to continue building traffic.
By just following the steps in this post, you can have your blogging business up and running in a minimum amount of time. Simply continue working to build your readership (and affiliate income) as your schedule permits!

6 Steps to Starting Your Own Profitable Blog

<a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/blog2.png" target="_blank"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-936652" src="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/blog2.png" alt="blog(2)" width="425" height="635" srcset="https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/blog2.png 425w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/blog2-336x503.png 336w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/blog2-107x160.png 107w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/blog2-334x499.png 334w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/blog2-89x134.png 89w" sizes="(max-width: 425px) 100vw, 425px" /></a>Starting a blog can be great fun! It can also be hard (really hard) work. According to <a href="http://www.wpvirtuoso.com/how-many-blogs-are-on-the-internet/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">WPVirtuoso</a>, every ½ second someone somewhere launches a brand new blog. This works out to almost 173,000 new blogs per day. With so many pre-existing blogs, why start a new one? Why do new people start new blogs each and every second of each and every day? <a href="http://www.becomingminimalist.com/15-reasons-i-think-you-should-blog/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Becoming Minimalist</a> sums it up so well: "In almost too many ways to count, [blogging] has changed me and the way I live my life."
Blogging has already changed Joanie and Heather's lives. Here, learn the five most important things to remember when starting your own blog&mdash;right from the mouths of our fearless KCL co-founders themselves!
<h3>1. No shortcuts </h3>
When asked about the five most important things they wish they had known when starting their first blogs, Joanie and Heather unanimously agreed on number one: 
There are no shortcuts!
In other words, anything that is truly worth doing is worth giving your best. How do you give your best? First, imagine the person(s) you most look up to and admire, or the customer(s) you most want to attract, are reading your blog. Write for them. Take your blog&mdash;and its blogger&mdash;seriously right from day one. Set up your blog as if you were a pro, and in no time at all you&#8217;ll be one. (Hint: read the two posts below to find out just how easy that is, and get started!)
<blockquote><a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/tips/couponing/start-coupon-blog-and-make-it-profitable-in-30-days/" target="_blank">Joanie's post</a> will teach you how to set up a blog with <a href="http://bluehost.com/track/thekrazycouponlady" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Bluehost</a> that can turn a profit in 30 days.</blockquote>
<blockquote><a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/tips/how-to-blog/set-google-analytics-blog-10-minutes/" target="_blank">Heather's post</a> will teach you how to set up Google Analytics on your blog in less than 10 minutes.</blockquote>
Just from following the instructions in these two posts, in less than one hour you will have a serious-looking, professional blog that is generating useful data. Now you&#8217;re already ahead of 99.9% of brand-new bloggers. So it&#8217;s time to go to work!
<h3>2. Ingenuity and thinking &#8220;outside the box&#8221; </h3>
The second thing Joanie and Heather say they wish they had known when launching their first blog is:
Just how important ingenuity and thinking outside the box is when blogging.
With more than <a href="http://blogging.org/blog/blogging-stats-2012-infographic/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">42 million active blogs</a> (i.e., blogs which have generated at least one post within the previous 12 months) in the U.S.A. alone, the importance of ingenious, interesting, innovative, creative content cannot be emphasized enough. You&#8217;re starting your blog because you have something to say, to share, to offer. What is it? If you can generate one high quality, truly original post per week, this will trump daily dull entries every time. So think "quality over quantity"&mdash;but aim for at least one post per week&mdash;and you will be headed in the right direction.
<h3>3. Stay focused </h3>
Of course, it&#8217;s super-easy to get so excited when you finally have a platform to share all your great ideas&#8230;that you let them all tumble out of you at once! But Heather and Joanie caution you not to do this:
Don't have too many ideas&mdash;stay focused on one, accomplish it, then move on to another.
By staying focused on introducing one idea, topic, service, or product at a time, you can better gauge where your audience's interests lie. What do they most need? Why are they choosing to read you in the limited free time they have to browse blog content? Watch your <a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/tips/how-to-blog/set-google-analytics-blog-10-minutes/" target="_blank">analytics</a> from post to post. When you see a spike, dig down further. Follow that thread and see where it leads you.
<h3>4. Put money in its place </h3>
Joanie and Heather also truly believe in and practice this credo in their own personal and professional blogging:
It's not all about the money.
It truly isn't. Money is great&mdash;money is fantastic. Saving money is why we all visit KCL each day, right? But what does that saved money buy us? More free time with our families? More self-care? More options and choices in life? It&#8217;s not the money itself that matters most, but what that money permits you to be, do, or achieve that you believe you can access in no other way. It is the same for your readers, by the way. They may return because your blog helps them save money, or earn more money (or both). But underneath, they are returning because that earned or saved money helps them inch closer to what they want more of in life.
<h3>5. Love = profits </h3>
Finally (and Heather and Joanie are very, very clear about this last point) love and profits are inextricably linked:
Find out what you love and monetize it.
Did you know Heather and Joanie launched KCL because they simply love couponing? They didn't do it to earn money&mdash;at least not at first.
As Joanie shares:
When we first added a site counter, we were surprised at the number of page views we'd get.
To this same point, Heather states:
We thought, "We're already doing work so why not monetize it?" We signed up for an affiliate and started making money.
Through launching KCL out of love for couponing and saving money for their families, Joanie and Heather connected with others who also love these same goals and want to pursue them.  By remembering these five core points from successful KCL blog-preneurs Joanie and Heather, you too can launch and grow a successful blog!

The 5 Most Important Things to Remember When You're Starting a Blog

<a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/blogging.png" target="_blank"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-934184" src="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/blogging.png" alt="blogging" width="425" height="283" srcset="https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/blogging.png 425w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/blogging-336x223.png 336w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/blogging-115x76.png 115w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/blogging-334x222.png 334w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/blogging-150x100.png 150w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/blogging-201x134.png 201w" sizes="(max-width: 425px) 100vw, 425px" /></a>We are huge proponents of turning what you love into a profitable business. Why? Because KCL is proof that when passion meets hard work, profit can be quick to follow! Five years ago, Joanie was a piano teacher and eBay reseller living paycheck to paycheck. Heather flipped furniture and ran a salon out of her home to make ends meet. Today, Heather and Joanie run KCL together. They are each the sole breadwinners for their families (their spouses stay home and take care of the kiddos). In this post, we give you pointers to help you follow in their footsteps and turn your passion into a profitable business!
<h3>Passive Income: It&#8217;s Where the Funds Are</h3>
First and foremost, Joanie and Heather are moms. In fact, they are what pop culture today calls "Mompreneurs." One of the best businesses for a busy mom is blogging. Joanie and Heather launched KCL from a simple blog using affiliate marketing to generate passive income. "Passive income," by the way, is income that essentially generates itself. How does it do this? Through affiliate marketing, which is a business tool that allows you to make money online by promoting someone else's product or service in exchange for cash.
<blockquote>See Joanie&#8217;s post, <a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/tips/how-to-blog/start-coupon-blog-and-make-it-profitable-in-30-days/" target="_blank">How to Start a Coupon Blog and Make It Profitable in 30 Days</a> and check out <a href="http://bluehost.com/track/thekrazycouponlady" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Bluehost</a>, our favorite web hosting site to start building your blog!</blockquote>
Joanie&#8217;s post explains how she uses affiliate marketing and  to monetize (aka "make money from") KCL's blog. By starting a blog and picking one or more relevant affiliates to promote to your readers, you earn funds every time one of your readers clicks on an affiliate link. In Joanie's post, she explains how she earns $0.42 each day that you visit KCL and click on a Coupons.com affiliate link to print out a coupon.
Fabulous, right?
<h3>So Where&#8217;s the Catch? 
</h3>
You&#8217;re probably thinking, "That sounds way too easy. Where's the catch?" Today, approximately 53% of all bloggers <a href="http://www.problogger.net/archives/2009/07/07/what-is-affiliate-marketing/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">use some form of affiliate marketing</a> regularly or occasionally to generate passive income. In other words, there is no catch!
<h3>Your Assignment</h3>
Here are the first steps to turning your business dreams into reality!
1. Acquaint yourself with how to launch a blog with affiliate links.
Read through Joanie's post "<a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/tips/how-to-blog/start-coupon-blog-and-make-it-profitable-in-30-days/" target="_blank">How to Start a Coupon Blog and Make It Profitable in 30 Days</a>" if you&#8217;re a couponer and want to earn income through Coupons.com.
2. Complete this short questionnaire.
This questionnaire will help you brainstorm what you want your blog to be about.
<ul>
<li>I&#8217;m passionate about (fill in the subject, topic, hobby, or issue).</li>
<li>If I were going to blog about my passion, I think a great title would be (pick a title).</li>
<li>My five favorite blogs on this (or a similar) topic are (list the five blogs).</li>
<li>I have the following social media accounts set up (list out the ones you have: Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Linked In, etc.)</li>
</ul>
3. Follow the steps in Joanie's post to set up your own blog.
You may want to start a blog on couponing or focus on another passion you have.
4. Follow the steps to install the Coupons.com affiliate. 
This will get you started earning right away. Later you may want to install additional affiliates (especially if you aren&#8217;t blogging on couponing).
5. Now it&#8217;s time to craft your first blog post. 
Spend some time and create a short (500 word maximum) and compelling blog post to introduce your topic. (Be sure to include at least one original image&mdash;either your own image or someone else&#8217;s image with appropriate copyright credit added&mdash;to improve your blog&#8217;s chances of being read.)
6. Start building your audience of readers.
In order to generate passive income, you must have readers visiting your blog who will click on the affiliate links so you can make money. So now it&#8217;s time to attract some readers. You can start doing this in three ways.
<ul>
<li>Share the link to your new blog and each post via your social media circles.</li>
<li>Reach out to your favorite bloggers (the ones you listed in the survey from Step 2) and share a post where you reference their blog (you can email them and ask if they will share your post with their readers, or simply post a comment with the link to your blog on their blog).</li>
<li>Email a small group of folks from your network who are "influencers"&mdash;people who have a large social network in their own right&mdash;and ask them to share your blog post with their network.</li>
</ul>
7. Continue writing and marketing your blog.
As you continue following steps 5 and 6, slowly but surely you will build your readership. As you build your readership, you will start to generate more passive income through the affiliate marketing links you have set up with Coupons.com and others. Here, you don&#8217;t have to dedicate a lot of time, but make it your goal to generate at least one high-quality, 500-word blog post per week that you can actively market to your networks.
In this way, you&#8217;ll be on your way to turning what you love into a profitable business with low overhead and big potential!

Turn What You Love into a Profitable Business—If We Can Do It, You Can Too!

Now that you&#8217;ve set up a blog you&#8217;ll want to provide multiple ways for your readers to easily access your content and keep up with what&#8217;s happening on your blog. One of the most common ways to do this is to set up an RSS feed (Really Simple Syndication). RSS feeds are used by millions of online users to keep track of their favorite websites. Two feed readers that I like are <a href="http://feedly.com/index.html#discover" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Feedly</a> and <a href="http://newsify.co" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Newsify</a>. When you subscribe to an RSS feed you&#8217;re essentially telling that website to notify you when any new content is published. It&#8217;s often described as a real-time newsfeed. This allows users to go to their RSS reader and view content from all of their favorite websites in one place. Bloggers also use RSS feeds to email newsletters to their users. The RSS feed is capable of automatically pulling content from your blog and putting it in your newsletter.  So what does it take to set up an RSS feed? Well, let me tell you. It&#8217;s actually very simple.

<h3>How to set up your RSS feed</h3>
Log into the your WordPress dashboard and hover over the settings link in the left side menu. A popout menu will appear. Click on the link labeled &#8220;Reading.&#8221; You should see this page:
<a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Reading-Settings2.png" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-907806 size-full" src="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Reading-Settings2.png" alt="Reading-Settings2" width="670" height="417" srcset="https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Reading-Settings2.png 670w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Reading-Settings2-336x209.png 336w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Reading-Settings2-425x264.png 425w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Reading-Settings2-115x71.png 115w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Reading-Settings2-320x200.png 320w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Reading-Settings2-334x207.png 334w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Reading-Settings2-215x134.png 215w" sizes="(max-width: 670px) 100vw, 670px" /></a>
Setting 1: &#8220;Blog pages show at most&#8221;
Choose how many posts you&#8217;d like to show up on each page of your blog. The default is ten. Depending on how many posts you publish per day, you may want to increase or decrease this number. We display 20 posts per page on KCL. 
<a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Blog-Pages1.png" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-907948 size-full" src="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Blog-Pages1.png" alt="Blog-Pages" width="670" height="86" srcset="https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Blog-Pages1.png 670w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Blog-Pages1-336x43.png 336w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Blog-Pages1-425x54.png 425w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Blog-Pages1-115x14.png 115w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Blog-Pages1-215x27.png 215w" sizes="(max-width: 670px) 100vw, 670px" /></a>
Setting 2: &#8220;Syndication feeds show the most recent&#8221;
Now choose how many posts will appear in your RSS feed. Again, default is ten.<a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/RSS-Feed.png" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-907955" src="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/RSS-Feed.png" alt="RSS-Feed" width="670" height="91" srcset="https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/RSS-Feed.png 670w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/RSS-Feed-336x45.png 336w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/RSS-Feed-425x57.png 425w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/RSS-Feed-115x15.png 115w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/RSS-Feed-215x29.png 215w" sizes="(max-width: 670px) 100vw, 670px" /></a>
Setting 3: &#8220;For each article in feed, show. . . &#8221; 
Next, you need to decide whether to show full posts in your RSS feed or only summaries. A full post is more convenient for your users, but the downside is that it doesn&#8217;t drive traffic to your website. By selecting &#8220;Summary,&#8221; your RSS feed will only show a sample of the posts. This will increase your traffic by encouraging your users to go to your blog for more information.
<a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Full-text.png" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-907966" src="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Full-text.png" alt="Full-text" width="670" height="93" srcset="https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Full-text.png 670w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Full-text-336x46.png 336w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Full-text-425x58.png 425w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Full-text-115x15.png 115w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Full-text-215x29.png 215w" sizes="(max-width: 670px) 100vw, 670px" /></a>
Setting 4: &#8220;Search Engine Visibility&#8221;
You want to leave this checked so search engines don&#8217;t index your RSS feed. Basically, you want to drive traffic to your blog and not your RSS feed.
<a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Search-Engine.png" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-908064" src="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Search-Engine.png" alt="Search-Engine" width="670" height="171" srcset="https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Search-Engine.png 670w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Search-Engine-336x85.png 336w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Search-Engine-425x108.png 425w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Search-Engine-115x29.png 115w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Search-Engine-666x170.png 666w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Search-Engine-215x54.png 215w" sizes="(max-width: 670px) 100vw, 670px" /></a>
That&#8217;s it! I told you it was simple! To see your RSS feed type in &#8220;/feed&#8221; at the end of your domain name in the address bar (e.g. <a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/feed/" target="_blank">www.TheKrazyCouponLady.com/feed</a>). Good luck!

<a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/joanie-demer.jpg" target="_blank"><img class="alignleft wp-image-902152" src="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/joanie-demer.jpg" alt="joanie-demer" width="158" height="158" /></a>It&#8217;s 2014, and the Blogosphere is no longer open, arid frontierland&#8212;more like a crowded subway terminal. So, how does one set out to succeed amidst a sea of would-be competitors?
It&#8217;s all about finding your niche&#8211;or nowadays your niche within a niche&#8211;in an overstated industry.
Here&#8217;s an example. . . and a confession. I have a girl-crush on food blogger Ree Drummond. And it isn&#8217;t even her to-die-for <a href="http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2007/06/cinammon_rolls_/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">cinnamon rolls</a>, or the fact that she taught me that the secret to great French toast is whole milk and egg yolks, duh. It&#8217;s the way she makes romance out of <a href="http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2007/11/butternut_squash_puree_try_it_or_ill_deck_ya_/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">butternut squash</a>. Yep. She had me at the squash.
You may think there are a lot of coupon blogs out there, but let me tell you something&#8211;we&#8217;ve got nothing on the floods of food bloggers; God bless every one of them!
Ms Drummond sets herself apart because she&#8217;s found her niche within a niche&#8211;gourd romance. Instead of just sharing great recipes, she shares her personality and her refreshing and unapologetic love for butter. My kind of girl.
<h1>How do I find my niche?</h1>
Determine what makes you you! Where are you from? What are your areas of expertise? What&#8217;s your family like? Find a way to knit it in to what you blog about, whether that is couponing or another subject altogether.
Start locally. The low hanging fruits in the coupon space are deals at local supermarket chains. Big blogs like KCL can&#8217;t compete with a small local blog for a small supermarket like Food4Less, which is why we don&#8217;t cover those deals. My first recommendation would be that you become the foremost expert on your local store(s) and see how much traction you can gain by doing so.<a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/What-the-Crap-is-a-Niche.jpg" target="_blank"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-902271" src="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/What-the-Crap-is-a-Niche.jpg" alt="What the Crap is a Niche" width="284" height="220" srcset="https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/What-the-Crap-is-a-Niche.jpg 284w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/What-the-Crap-is-a-Niche-115x89.jpg 115w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/What-the-Crap-is-a-Niche-120x92.jpg 120w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/What-the-Crap-is-a-Niche-172x134.jpg 172w" sizes="(max-width: 284px) 100vw, 284px" /></a>
Fight for original content! What are the things you wish you saw more of on other blogs? Do the work, and make it happen on yours! In store photos? Your personal shopping list? What coupons to print this week? Give your readers something they absolutely cannot find somewhere else.
Change your aesthetic! Make your blog look different! KCL was the first coupon blog to ever have a slider or &#8216;deal carousel&#8217; at the top of the page, highlighting the best, current deals. You wouldn&#8217;t know that now because every blogger and their cousin has slapped one up at the top of the page. And good for them! Good ideas are meant to be shared! Don&#8217;t be afraid to look at competitors outside your industry for original ideas and inspiration!
Be generous and informative to beginners. Heather and I attribute lots of our success to the fact that we&#8217;ve always catered to beginners. We created <a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/beginners/" target="_blank">10 Days to Become a Krazy Coupon Lady</a> just a couple months after we began blogging, and it&#8217;s been a staple of our business (and the <a href="http://youtu.be/YQLY120zvJI?t=18s" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Kardashian&#8217;s</a>) ever since.

Get personal. So you&#8217;re a single mom with eight kids. . . er nine. . . and you live in a Victorian fixer-upper in a Chicago suburb with a creepy cat lady next door. That&#8217;s gold! Don&#8217;t just sell your deals! Sell yourself!
<blockquote>The decision to make our personalities part of our brand was something Heather and I didn&#8217;t realize we were doing until it was too late. After we published <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Pick-Another-Checkout-Lane-Honey/dp/0615525172/?_encoding=UTF8&amp;tag=kracoulad-20&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;qid=1324922042&amp;camp=1789&amp;sr=8-3&amp;creative=9325" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">our book</a> and began booking <a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/press/" target="_blank">national press</a>, like it or not, we had branded ourselves&#8211;our faces, our annoying voices, my loudmouth personality. . . we live to regret this pretty much every time we have occasion to watch one of our own videos. We&#8217;ve allowed you all to get to know us. And, to our surprise, you haven&#8217;t turned and run away.</blockquote>
We&#8217;re all people, (people who need people). So channel your inner Funny Girl and show some of you in your blog.
<h1>Here are a couple ideas to get you started</h1>
<ul>
<li>Create a coupon blog that tallies your journey to get out of debt or toward Bora Bora (pitter patter), with an honest-to-goodness red thermometer in the sidebar where your audience can watch you progress!</li>
<li>Create a coupon blog that focuses on a niche audience&#8211;what about just baby deals? Or pet deals? Or deals for men?</li>
<li>Never couponed before? Start your blog now and chronicle your journey. Nothing more valuable than advice from someone who is literally learning with their audience.</li>
<li>Make up a persona&#8211;I&#8217;d love nothing more than to read my deals from an over-stereotypical extreme couponing addict who could poke fun at our silly idiosyncrasies while telling me how to get a deal on 90 bottles of pancake syrup.</li>
</ul>
I truly believe there is no limit on the number of potentially profitable bloggers in the world. As you <a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/tips/couponing/start-coupon-blog-and-make-it-profitable-in-30-days/" target="_blank">create your blog</a>, you gain the ability to build your own audience. By implementing the tips above, you should have no problem doing it!

How to Find Your Niche in the Blogosphere

When I think back to what made KCL successful years ago, measurable site statistics are one of the things that comes to mind. Boring. . . . . right? Just listen to this: it was a couple months after Joanie and I started KCL that I ran into a stranger with coupons at the supermarket. I gave a friendly smile, then couldn&#8217;t help but ask what she was buying. She explained her shopping trip and then saw my coupons and asked if I too learned how to coupon from &#8220;that Krazy Coupon Lady blog&#8221;? I nonchalantly shrugged and explained I had never heard of such a site, then ran to call Joanie, describe the woman and ask, &#8220;Do you know her?  Who told her about KCL?&#8221;
When we established neither of us knew the mystery woman, I looked into a statistics counter that would tell us how many people visited the site each day. I found <a href="http://www.sitemeter.com/default.asp" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Sitemeter</a>, a very basic analytics tool, and in 24 hours we were shocked to find out we had hundreds of people visiting our blog daily. That changed everything.<a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/tips/couponing/start-coupon-blog-and-make-it-profitable-in-30-days/" target="_blank"> 
</a>
Until this point, we had blogged very sporadically. I was posting most of the content and Joanie was playing with the design and hunting down advertisers. Once we saw the traffic, we knew we had something with great potential. We changed our strategy and began to treat the blog as a business. 
<a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/tips/couponing/start-coupon-blog-and-make-it-profitable-in-30-days/" target="_blank"><img alt="Start-a-blog" src="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Start-a-blog.png" width="670" height="76" /></a>
And that is why stats are important. It took us many more months to find the far superior (and still free) tracking tool <a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-admin/www.google.com/analytics" target="_blank">Google Analytics</a>. So, we&#8217;ll skip the <a href="http://www.sitemeter.com/default.asp" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Sitementer</a> chapter and head straight to the best free Analytics tool on the web. Once you&#8217;ve set up your site domain and hosting through <a href="http://bluehost.com/track/thekrazycouponlady" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Bluehost</a>, follow these step-by-step instructions to install &#8220;GA&#8221; on your site!

Congratulations! You just set up Google Analytics on your blog. Keep in mind it can take up to 24 hours for Google to recognize your Tracking ID.  So don&#8217;t worry if you don&#8217;t see any data in your Google Analytics account immediately. Stay tuned for more posts in our <a href="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/tips/how-to-blog/" target="_blank">How To Blog series</a>.

How to Set Up Google Analytics on Your Blog in 10 Minutes!

Five years ago I was a stay-at-home mom living paycheck to paycheck with a big idea and not a penny in savings to make it happen. Today, I&#8217;m co-owner of a successful business and the sole breadwinner for my family. Now I&#8217;m sharing with you how I did it and how you can start your own blog and make it profitable in the first month. Seriously. Here are the three steps you must follow to create your blog.
Note: We recently (as of March 17, 2015) became aware of Escalate Media&#8217;s changes to new user requirements. Escalate now requires new users to have at least 6 months of blogging history along with 1,000+ Facebook followers. To help you gain more traffic to your existing blog or to create a following, you may want to check out our entire How to Blog series for tips!

<blockquote>Why am I doing this? Why would I want to hurt my business by creating more coupon blogs? 
The way  I see it, there are not a finite number of frugal people in the world, divisible by the number of coupon blogs available to them. On the contrary, I believe the more blogs, the more buzz, the louder our voice and the larger our soapbox. More blogs reach more people, grow our industry, and ultimately save people money and (corny alert!) change lives.</blockquote>
<h1>HOW TO START A COUPON BLOG</h1>
<h3>1. SET UP A DOMAIN AND HOSTING</h3>
This is the fun part! What are you gonna call your blog? Amidst the sea of coupon queens and discount divas, might I suggest you step outside the mold? Make your blog name uniquely yours. Or throw in the towel and use this gem. I just checked and it&#8217;s still available. I think it&#8217;s got real potential: MoneySavingCouponSavvyDiscountFrugalThriftyBargainDealQueenDivaLadyMomPerson.com
Once you&#8217;ve picked a name, head to <a href="http://bluehost.com/track/thekrazycouponlady" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Bluehost</a> to see if your domain is available. I&#8217;m setting up <a href="http://couponingforkids.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">CouponingForKids.com</a> to show just how simple this is! <a href="http://bluehost.com/track/thekrazycouponlady" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><img class="size-full wp-image-881752 aligncenter" src="https://thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/bluehostdomain.jpg" alt="bluehostdomain" width="670" height="270" srcset="https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/bluehostdomain.jpg 670w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/bluehostdomain-336x135.jpg 336w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/bluehostdomain-425x171.jpg 425w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/bluehostdomain-115x46.jpg 115w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/bluehostdomain-421x170.jpg 421w, https://admin.thekrazycouponlady.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/bluehostdomain-215x86.jpg 215w" sizes="(max-width: 670px) 100vw, 670px" /></a> Luckily, with BlueHost the domain name is free. The only associated cost is hosting, at $5.95 per month. Think of hosting like monthly rent for space on the web. You can&#8217;t avoid paying it, and the more traffic you gain, the more you&#8217;ll pay. (KCL pays thousands each month just to keep the site live. . .oy!) But, don&#8217;t you worry! I&#8217;ll show you in step three how to earn enough to more than recoup those costs!

Here&#8217;s the good part where I show you how to earn money by running a free website! [WARNING: If you thought couponing was addicting, wait til it starts paying you!] There are lots of ways to make a blog profitable. I&#8217;m going to show you my favorite. I think it&#8217;s the best because it&#8217;s the least obtrusive to your audience, and it has great earning potential. Here&#8217;s the skinny! You&#8217;re going to want to sign up to be an affiliate publisher for <a href="http://strk.enlnks.com/aff_c?offer_id=30&amp;aff_id=473" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Coupons.com</a>. By doing so, you&#8217;ll be able to earn $0.42 for every coupons.com print session your site generates.
<blockquote>
<h1>Print Session, huh?</h1>
If I visit your site today, click on your <a href="http://strk.enlnks.com/aff_c?offer_id=30&amp;aff_id=473" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Coupons.com</a> link and print one coupon, you&#8217;ll have $0.42 added to your account. (You&#8217;re welcome!) If I print 20 coupons with your link today, you still just get $0.42. But, if I print one coupon today, and another one (or ten) tomorrow, you&#8217;ll get $0.84. A print session is defined as any number of prints in a 24-hour period.</blockquote>
If your site generates one session per day, that&#8217;s $12.60 per month! See that? You&#8217;re only paying $5.95 in hosting. With one measly coupon print per day, you&#8217;re already staring at a $6.65 potential net profit! And that&#8217;s just the beginning. Generate 100 sessions a day and you&#8217;re looking at $1260 per month. That oughta cover your couponing budget, don&#8217;t you think? Your affiliate link will look like this: <a href="http://strk.enlnks.com/aff_c?offer_id=30&amp;aff_id=473" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://strk.enlnks.com/aff_c?offer_id=30&amp;aff_id=473 </a>
