We are a few days into July, but I still thought it was necessary to share 5 of my blogging goals for the month. As many of you may know, I started blogging last year. My blogging journey has been filled with many ups and downs. I shared with you all the 7 mistakes I’ve made as a new blogger! Since then, I have taken steps to improve my blog and I am definitely seeing progress! My blog analytics has been constantly improving from month to month.

This month I have entered a blogging consistency challenge, hosted by The Mattie James. She is a well known blogger, and has turned her hobby into a full-time lucrative business. This challenge came at an opportune time because I wanted to make my blog a priority this month. I’ve mastered consistently creating content for my YouTube Channel and Instagram feed, but I haven’t quite mastered being consistent on the blog.

I have been consistently listening to her weekly live streams on Instagram and her podcast. One thing that she preaches is that you should own your domain– which in this case is my blog. Putting all of your content only on social media is very risky, as you do not own that space. At any given moment if Instagram or any social media site were to shut down, so would your content.

“Having your social media presence together is important. Having your website together should be priority.” — The Mattie James

Here are my blogging goals for the month of July:

1. Complete The Mattie James Consistency Challenge, which includes publishing one blog post daily, Monday – Friday, starting on July 6th.
2. Utilize Pinterest to promote my blog and instagram. This includes placing all previously published content on Pinterest.
3. Increase my Email List by 30%.
4. Daily Promotion. Often times I don’t want to sound to pushy, so I hold back on promoting my blog. This month I plan to promote it daily on the social media platform of choice.
5. Create my free masterclass! Stay tuned for that!

I am ready to knock July out of the park! Let me know if you are also partaking in the Mattie James Consistency Challenge! Drop your blog link in the comments! I would love to support my fellow bloggers! Happy Blogging!
