Hey lovely people! 💖 Ever wondered what a day in the life of a mom blogger looks like? Let me take you behind the scenes of my busy, fun-filled day! 🚀
Morning Hustle ☀️
My day starts early, as I juggle between being a mom and a blogger. After waking up, I get my little one ready for the day. Once she’s all set, I dive straight into my blogsite speed check using the free Google Speed Check tool to ensure my website is meeting the page speed and core web vital goals. A fast-loading site is crucial for keeping my readers happy and engaged. 💻💨 This tool helps me identify any issues that might slow down my site, ensuring a smooth user experience. As most of my users come to visit this site from desktop and mobile, I continue work on UX (user experiences) on both devices. The higher The number for performance, the better the speed and overall UX.
SEO Magic 🪄
Next up, it’s time for some SEO checks! I use Google Search Console and the SEO Check app to ensure my blog is optimized and hitting my SEO goals 📈🔍 These tools are essential for monitoring my site’s performance and making necessary adjustments. I focus on aspects like mobile usability, page speed, and indexing issues to keep my blog in top shape.
Trending Topics 🔥
Staying relevant is key in the blogging world. I use Google Trends and the GoTrends App to stay on top of trending topics and keywords. 🌟 This helps me create content that resonates with what are people searching for and wanting to know. Additionally, I rely on free Ahrefs keyword generator and Semrush for checking keyword ideas, KD (keyword difficulties), SV (monthly search volumes), and competitor site DA (domain authorities). These tools provide valuable insights that guide my content strategy.
Content Creation and Planning 📝
Content creation is at the heart of my day. I brainstorm ideas, draft posts, and plan my content calendar. For example, during the Amazon USA and UK back to school events, I will be working on blog posts such as Amazon Back to School deals 🛍️📚. This kind of event-based post will give parents a comprehensive rundown of the best deals for the new school term. I will make sure to include relevant Amazon affiliate links and detailed product descriptions to provide value to my readers while also generating some income which is called the affiliate commission.
Social Media Engagement 📱
Engaging with my audience on social media is a big part of my day. I schedule posts, respond to comments, and interact with my followers. Platforms like Instagram, Pinterest and Facebook are great for building a community and driving traffic to my blog. For example, during the back to school event, I will be promoting my new blog post on Amazon Back to School deals throughout my social media channels such as the below on my Instagram account.
Networking and Collaboration 🤝
Networking with fellow bloggers and brands is key to my growth as a mom blogger. I dedicate time to reaching out to potential collaborators, responding to emails, and engaging in blogging communities. Through platforms like Commission Factory, Intellifluence, Insense, Story Bug, Cherub Baby and Pineapple clothing Ambassador Programs, I’ve built valuable partnerships with brands such as Lyra Swimwear, Cherub Baby, Pineapple Clothing, Lutheran Services, and more. These connections open the door to exciting opportunities that not only elevate my blog but also bring meaningful content and value to my readers.
Analytics and Performance Review 📊
At the end of the day, I review my blog’s performance using Google Analytics. This helps me understand what’s working and what needs improvement. I look at metrics like page views, bounce rates, and user engagement to refine my strategy and ensure I’m meeting my goals.
Family Time and Self-Care 💖
Balancing work and family is crucial. I make sure to spend quality time with my family, whether it’s playing with my little one or enjoying a quiet evening with my partner. Self-care is also important, so I take some time to relax and recharge.
