Book review on the new book from Life it or Not Blogger Sarah Leigh
How to Create a Kick A** Blog
I had the wonderful opportunity to review Sarah’s new book this month. Though my husband has blogged for years and has been showing me the ropes, I was surprised at how much I didn’t know. Sarah shares so many useful techniques in her book.
The amazing thing is she went from 0 views a day to 200-400 a day within a month. Which I admit spiked my interest. I really believe Sarah has done so well because she has a compelling story and blog that touches others AND she has done an amazing amount of research on blogging. She discusses how she implemented her blog research and how to do it best. You can read all about it in her book. It has been very useful as I am learning the ropes to get my blog up and running.
I particularly liked the part about finding your target audience, which Sarah has also included useful questions to help you discover your target audience, the people you are writing for.
There was helpful information on different platforms I could use to host my site. Though I had already picked one by this point, it was useful to read through the options and make sure I had what worked best for me.
There is also great information for mapping out who you are and what your blog has to offer others – important if you want people to keep reading.
All in all I’d say this book is well written, researched and worth the read. Sit down with a pen and paper, you’ll want to take notes.
Sarah Leigh is a single mother to her 1-year old daughter, motivational educator and blogger at ‘Life It Or Not’. Her Parenting and Self

I also was lucky and got the opportunity to read Sarah’s book. It is packed with valuable information for beginners on starting a blog. It has everything from starting a website to creative content and monetizing.
That is great! It was a good book.
Thank you for your review! I’m going to order it now! I can’t wait to read all she has to offer!
I’m so glad, I hope you like it too.
